Executive Order 12862 directs Federal agencies to provide service to the public that matches or exceeds the best service available in the private sector. In order to work continuously to ensure that our programs are effective and meet our stakeholders' needs, NCUA seeks to obtain OMB approval of a generic clearance to collect qualitative feedback on our service delivery. This collection of information is necessary to enable the Agency to garner stakeholder feedback in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with our commitment to improving service delivery. It will allow for ongoing, collaborative and actionable communications between the Agency and its stakeholders.
EO: EO 12862 Name/Subject of EO: Setting Customer Service Standards
This revision proposes to increase the hours available to obtain feedback on services provided by NCUA offices in addition to the office that was the subject of the generic information collection submission to OMB in 2014. NCUA anticipates that additional offices within NCUA will use a variety of methods to garner qualitative customer and stakeholder feedback, including, but not limited to, web and paper-based surveys or feedback forms, web-based polling or other interactive responses, comment cards, social media, focus groups, small discussion groups, and usability testing. These collections will allow for ongoing, collaborative, and actionable communications between more offices within NCUA and their customers and stakeholders. This will allow additional feedback in more areas to contribute directly to the improvement of program management.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
