Request for Approval under the “Generic Clearance for the Collection of Routine Customer Feedback” (OMB Control Number: 0690-0030)


TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Commercial Service (CS) Europe (UK) - Client Feedback


PURPOSE:

Expanding U.S. exports is a national priority to improving U.S. trade performance. The Department of Commerce’s (DOC) International Trade Administration (ITA) including the U.S and Foreign Commercial Service (CS) are key U.S. government agencies responsible for assisting U.S. organizations to export and/or conduct business overseas. The CS provides export promotion services such as market research, client counseling and trade missions. To accomplish its mission effectively and efficiently CS requires ongoing client feedback on its programs. The tagline will be in use for a 90-day test with UK clients, and depending on the feedback, will expand to other countries.  


This email tagline enables CS to track client satisfaction and performances of international Posts. It also enables the CS to identify potentially unsatisfied clients and take timely action to resolve the situations. Clients benefit from this information collection because it is used to improve services provided to them (public).
