This is a request for an extension of
the generic clearance to conduct customer satisfaction measures of
Federal Government programs and services utilizing the methodology
of the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI). This extension
will allow for continued use of a data-driven, statistically valid
approach to understanding customer satisfaction with agency
interactions and processes. By using the ACSI methodology, agencies
gain important insights about who their customers are and what
specifically drives their satisfaction. This allows decision-makers
to objectively measure their processes and/or service delivery and
use the results to allocate resources more effectively. The
ultimate objective is to help agencies become more citizen-centric
and achieve higher levels of citizen trust and confidence.
