Business Trends and Outlook Survey
The Department of Commerce will
submit the following information
collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication
of this notice. We invite the general
public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed, and continuing
information collections, which helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. Public
comments were previously requested

via the Federal Register on November 9,
2021 during a 60-day comment period.
This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comments.
Agency: U.S. Census Bureau.
Title: Business Trends and Outlook
Survey.
OMB Control Number: 0607–XXXX.
Form Number(s) The electronic
survey instrument has no form number.
Type of Request: Regular submission,
New Information Collection Request.
Number of Respondents: We expect
45,000 responses every two weeks for a
total of 1,170,000 responses annually.
Average Hours per Response: 8
minutes.
Burden Hours: 156,000.
Needs and Uses: The mission of the
U.S. Census Bureau (Census Bureau) is
to serve as the leading source of quality
data about the nation’s people and
economy; in order to fulfill this mission,
it is necessary to innovate to produce
more detailed, more frequent, and more
timely data products. The Coronavirus
pandemic was an impetus for the
creation of new data products by the
Census Bureau to measure the
pandemic’s impact on the economy: The
Small Business Pulse Survey (SBPS)
(OMB Number: 0607–1014) and the
weekly Business Formation Statistics.
Policymakers and other federal agency
officials, media outlets, and academia
commended the Census Bureau’s rapid
response to their data needs during the
largest economic crisis in recent
American history. The Census Bureau
proposes to capitalize on the successes
that underlie the current high frequency
data collection and near real time data
dissemination that have been
engineered for the SBPS. The proposed
Business Trends and Outlook Survey
(BTOS) will be an ongoing collection
that will allow for high frequency,
timely, and granular information about
current economic conditions and trends
as well as the impact of national,
subnational, or sector-level shocks on
business activity. The proposed BTOS
will also allow the Census Bureau a
mechanism for providing more detailed
data during times of economic or other
emergencies. Thus, the Census Bureau
is requesting three years of approval
from OMB to conduct the BTOS.
The BTOS will increase the scope of
the Small Business Pulse Survey to
include large employer businesses
(those with 500 or more employees),
multi-unit businesses (those with
establishments in more than one
location), and nonemployer businesses
(those with no paid employees); it will
also include the U.S. Island Areas in
addition to Puerto Rico. As with the
SBPS, the BTOS will include most non-

PO 00000

farm sectors of the U.S. economy. The
BTOS will incrementally build on the
success of the SBPS and will be
implemented using components of the
current SBPS platform. The first stage of
the BTOS will be an expansion of the
SBPS to include the addition of large
single unit employer businesses, to be
followed by the addition of multi-unit
businesses, and then nonemployer
businesses. The BTOS will ultimately
produce high frequency statistics across
most non-farm sectors of the U.S.
economy, with estimates by sector,
state, state by sector, sub-sector, the
largest fifty Metropolitan Statistical
Areas (MSA) by population size,
employment size, and employer status.
As with other Census Bureau data
products, detailed methodology and
measures of quality will be published
for BTOS data products. BTOS products
will be based on representative samples
drawn from the full universe of
businesses, making them unique and the
results reliable when compared to other
high frequency business survey data
such as those produced in the private
sector.
The Census Bureau proposes an
incremental path to the proposed final
scope of the BTOS in order to learn at
each implemented stage and to allow for
modifications based on lessons learned
or internal/external stakeholder
feedback in prior iterations. The Census
Bureau will submit a request to OMB
including 30 days of public comment
announced in the Federal Register to
receive approval to make any
substantive revisions to the content or
methods of the proposed survey,
including the incremental scope
changes discussed above.
The Census Bureau published a notice
in the Federal Register on November 9,
2021 soliciting public comments on our
plans to conduct the BTOS. That notice
referred to the survey as the Business
Pulse Survey. The name of the survey
has since been changed to Business
Trends and Outlook Survey with the
acronym BTOS. That earlier notice also
included an estimate of 6 minutes to
complete the survey. We have since
revised that estimate to 8 minutes.
The BTOS will be a new survey with
bi-weekly data collection and
publication; estimates produced from
the BTOS will initially be released as
experimental data products. The SBPS
demonstrated the ability of the Census
Bureau to collect and publish high
frequency, timely data during a national
economic emergency. The BTOS will
capitalize on this success and provide
regularly occurring high frequency data
products and measures of quality based
on national and subnational

representative samples using
transparent methodology. The BTOS
will produce data continuously, in part
as a response to feedback on the SBPS
that longer time series would have been
useful to contextualize the pandemic
impact. Continuous data will allow for
the measurement of economic trends
during all phases of the business cycle
as well as during times of economic and
other emergencies. The BTOS will
uniquely provide the ability to produce
these data and associated measures of
quality.
The BTOS data series will provide
insight on the state of the economy,
prior to and during an event (including
but not limited to natural disasters or
economic crises) and will assist in
monitoring the recovery from the event.
It will also be useful in understanding
aggregate and subaggregate changes in
economic trends throughout the
business cycle. BTOS data may be used
by elected officials, government
program officials, policy makers,
industry leaders, economic and social
analysts, business entrepreneurs,
business and economic news
organizations, and domestic and foreign
researchers in academia, business, and
government.
The BTOS will allow for a large
number of data products that are
complementary to the Census Bureau’s
existing monthly and quarterly
economic indicator programs which
provide estimates of contemporaneous
economic activity at the national sector
level. The BTOS will produce
complementary disaggregate
contemporaneous data as well as data
that reflect the outlook of businesses.
The BTOS will be complementary to the
Census Bureau’s existing annual
programs, serving as a platform through
which trends and data gaps may first be
identified for subsequent inclusion in
annual programs.
The BTOS instrument will include
core and supplemental content. Core
content will form the basis of the
instrument and run continuously; core
content will include measures of
economic activity that are applicable
across all non-farm sectors and are
important across the business cycle and
during economic or other emergencies.
Supplemental content will be included
on the instrument with a regular
periodicity and will be designed to
provide urgently needed data on an
emerging or current issue.
Core concepts for the BTOS will be
selected based on research and analysis
conducted during the SBPS, stakeholder
feedback, and the ability to collect
complementary items on monthly,

quarterly, annual, or census programs to
provide context and benchmarking.

accessible through the Census Bureau’s
Experimental Data Products site.
Experimental data products are clearly
identified and include methodology and
supporting research with their release.
