PURPOSE:

To gather feedback on respondents' experiences when they obtain support from the IT Operations and Services Management (ITOSM) team. The survey will be used to help determine the level of customer satisfaction, gauge the perceived quality of the team's support, and identify areas for improvement.


DESCRIPTION OF RESPONDENTS:

The above Average Hourly Wage Rate is the May 2016 Bureau of Labor Statistics average wage for “All Occupations” of $23.86 times the wage rate benefit multiplier of 1.4 (to account for fringe benefits) equaling $33.40. The selection of “All Occupations” (for example) was chosen as the expected respondents for this collection could be expected to be from any occupation.


FEDERAL COST: The estimated annual cost to the Federal government is $ 1,844.75/year


It is estimated that 1 manager at a GS level 15, Step 1 will spending approximately 1% of their time (2080 annual working hours x 1% = 20.8 hours) annually to review, analyze, and assimilate survey responses.

Using the FY17 (Washington-Baltimore-Northern Virginia) GS pay scale, the fully-loaded wage rate for a GS15, Step 1 is $ 88.69 ($ 131,767 annual salary/2080 = $63.35 base wage rate x 1.4 benefit multiplier = $ 88.69 fully-loaded wage rate).


The annual government cost is estimated to be $ 1,844.75 (20.8 hours annually x $88.69 = $1,844.75).



STATISTICAL METHOD:


If you are conducting a focus group, survey, or plan to employ statistical methods, please provide answers to the following questions:


The selection of your targeted respondents

  1. Do you have a customer list or something similar that defines the universe of potential respondents and do you have a sampling plan for selecting from this universe? [x] Yes [ ] No
