The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) will conduct an Operations Test of a Quick Business Survey (QBS). The BLS will conduct the test to evaluate QBS survey processes and operations in a possible production environment. A QBS would allow the BLS to collect information about the US Economy in a more efficient manner than is currently possible and would allow data users to understand the impacts of specific events on the economy in a timely manner.
