Subject: 2013 DSS Voice of Industry Survey -

Dear [Respondent Name]

INTRODUCTION:

   The Defense Security Service (DSS) is conducting its third annual survey of U.S. cleared defense industry for feedback on DSS performance with respect to the administration and implementation of the National Industrial Security Program (NISP).  If you received this survey email invitation, DSS records indicate that you are the Facility Security Officer for a specific cleared facility.

   The survey will close on [TBD], at 10pm EST.  Responses should only be submitted through the on-line survey. 

  While participation in this survey is voluntary, DSS would like to receive as many surveys as possible in order to maintain or improve the quality of our relations with cleared defense industry

BACKGROUND:

   The DSS Voice of Industry survey is sent to all cleared industry facilities under DSS cognizance in the NISP.  The collection of information requests the assistance of the Facility Security Officer, in coordination with the Information System Security Manager and/or Senior Management Official as appropriate, to provide feedback.  The data is analyzed and reported to DSS senior leadership for an assessment of DSS performance in administering and overseeing the NISP on behalf of the Department of Defense and those U.S. Government agencies that have entered into agreements for industrial security services with the Secretary of Defense

    Information collected in this survey is analyzed in aggregate at DSS headquarters and specific responses from facilities participating will not be provided to the owning DSS field offices or industrial security representatives.
