Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 16 / Wednesday, January 27, 2021 / Notices
requires Federal Agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, HUD is
publishing notice of the proposed
collection of information set forth in
this document.
Whether seeking a loan, Social
Security benefits, veterans’ benefits, or
other services provided by the Federal
Government, individuals and businesses
expect Government customer services to
be efficient and intuitive, just like
services from leading private-sector
organizations. Yet the 2016 American
Consumer Satisfaction Index and the
2017 Forrester Federal Customer
Experience Index show that, on average,
Government services lag nine
percentage points behind the private
sector.
A modern, streamlined and
responsive customer experience means:
Raising government-wide customer
experience to the average of the private
sector service industry; developing
indicators for high-impact Federal
programs to monitor progress towards
excellent customer experience and
mature digital services; and providing
the structure (including increasing
transparency) and resources to ensure
customer experience is a focal point for
agency leadership. To support this,
OMB Circular A–11 Section 280
established government-wide standards
for mature customer experience
organizations in government and
measurement. To enable Federal
programs to deliver the experience
taxpayers deserve, they must undertake
three general categories of activities:
Conduct ongoing customer research,
gather and share customer feedback, and
test services and digital products.
These data collection efforts may be
either qualitative or quantitative in
nature or may consist of mixed
methods. Additionally, data may be
collected via a variety of means,
including but not limited to electronic
or social media, direct or indirect
observation (i.e., in person, video and
audio collections), interviews,
questionnaires, surveys, and focus
groups. HUD will limit its inquiries to
data collections that solicit strictly
voluntary opinions or responses. Steps
will be taken to ensure anonymity of
respondents in each activity covered by
this request.
The results of the data collected will
be used to improve the delivery of
Federal services and programs. It will
include the creation of personas,

customer journey maps, and reports and
summaries of customer feedback data
and user insights. It will also provide
government-wide data on customer
experience that can be displayed on
performance.gov to help build
transparency and accountability of
Federal programs to the customers they
serve.
Method of Collection: HUD will
collect this information by electronic
means when possible, as well as by
mail, fax, telephone, technical
discussions, and in-person interviews.
HUD may also utilize observational
techniques to collect this information.
Data:
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Review: New.
Affected Public: Collections will be
targeted to the solicitation of opinions
from respondents who have experience
with the program or may have
experience with the program in the near
future. For the purposes of this request,
‘‘customers’’ are individuals,
businesses, and organizations that
interact with a Federal Government
agency or program, either directly or via
a Federal contractor. This could include
individuals or households; businesses
or other for-profit organizations; not-forprofit institutions; State, local or tribal
governments; Federal government; and
Universities.
• Estimated Number of Respondents:
500,000.
• Estimated Time per Response:
Varied, dependent upon the data
collection method used. The possible
response time to complete a
questionnaire or survey may be 3
minutes or up to 2 hours to participate
in an interview.
• Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 25,000.
• Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $0.
B. Solicitation of Public Comment
This notice is soliciting comments
from members of the public and affected
parties concerning the collection of
information described in Section A on
the following:
(1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of
the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information;
