The purpose of the survey will be to obtain feedback from customers on the quality of BEA products and services. The results will serve to assist BEA in improving the quality of its data products and its methods of dissemination. The survey will be mailed to about 2,000 potential respondents, BEA will request that responses be returned 30 days after the mailing. It will also reside on BEA's website for 5,500 potential respondents. The survey will be designed so that all responses are anonymous and therefore eliminates the necessity for recordkeeping of respondents.
