This generic information collection
plan provides for the collection of qualitative feedback from
consumers, financial institutions, and stakeholders on a wide range
of services the Bureau provides in an efficient, timely manner, in
accordance with the Bureau's commitment to improving service
delivery. By qualitative feedback, the Bureau means information
that provides useful insights on, for example, comprehension,
usability, perceptions, and opinions, but are not statistical
surveys that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to
the population of study. The Bureau expects this feedback to
include insights into consumer, financial institution, or
stakeholder perceptions, experiences, and expectations, provide an
early warning of issues with service, or focus attention on areas
where communication, training or changes in operations might
improve delivery of products or services. These collections will
allow for ongoing, collaborative, and actionable communications
between the Bureau and consumers, financial institutions, and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback to contribute directly to
the improvement of program management.
