Abstract: This information collection
activity provides a means to garner
qualitative customer and stakeholder
feedback in an efficient, timely manner,
in accordance with the Agency’s
commitment to improve service
delivery. By qualitative feedback we
mean information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions
but are not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
This feedback will provide insights
into customer or stakeholder
perceptions, experiences, and
expectations, provide an early warning

of issues with service, or focus attention
on areas where communication, training
or changes in operations might improve
delivery of products or services. These
collections will allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between the Agency
and its customers and stakeholders. It
will also allow feedback to contribute
directly to the improvement of program
management. The solicitation of
feedback will target areas such as:
Timeliness, appropriateness, accuracy
of information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered to the public.
If this information is not collected,
vital feedback from customers and
stakeholders on the Agency’s services
will be unavailable. The Agency will
only submit a collection for approval
under this generic clearance if it meets
the following conditions:
• The collections are voluntary;
• The collections are low-burden for
respondents (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
respondents, or burden-hours per
respondent) and are low-cost for both
the respondents and the Federal
Government;
• The collections are
noncontroversial and do not raise issues
of concern to other Federal agencies;
• Any collection is 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;
• Personally identifiable information
(PII) is collected only to the extent
necessary and is not retained;
• Information gathered is intended to
be used only internally for general
service improvement and program
management purposes and is not
intended for release outside of the
agency (if released, the agency must
indicate the qualitative nature of the
information);
• Information gathered will not be
used for the purpose of substantially
informing influential policy decisions;
and
• Information gathered will yield
qualitative information. The collections
will not be designed or expected to
yield statistically reliable results or used
as though the results are generalizable to
the population of study. Feedback
collected under this generic clearance
provides useful information, but it does
not yield data that can be generalized to
the overall population.
This type of generic clearance for
qualitative information will not be used
