TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Risk MAP Meeting Survey
PURPOSE OF COLLECTION:
What are you hoping to learn / improve? How do you plan to use what you learn? Are there artifacts (user personas, journey maps, digital roadmaps, summary of customer insights to inform service improvements, performance dashboards) the data from this collection will feed?
The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) and Risk Management Directorate (RMD) scoped Resilience Action Partners to develop a strategy for using data-driven decision making to improve Customer Experience (CX) across communication touchpoints (e.g., Risk MAP meetings, websites, etc.). A 15-question survey designed to evaluate Risk MAP meetings will be leveraged to inform this strategy. Specifically, to garner data that will allow FEMA to:
Understand, measure, and track the Customer Experience across Risk MAP meeting touchpoints.
Baseline data to track trends in Risk MAP customer engagement metrics over time.
Identify areas that work well and address areas of concern.
There are two versions of the survey: one will be used for community officials and the other will be used for the general public. Both surveys will include consistent metrics with slight question text and answer option variations.
TYPE OF ACTIVITY: (Check one)
[ ] Customer Research (Interview, Focus Groups, Surveys)
[ x ] Customer Feedback Survey

ACTIVITY DETAILS
If this is a survey, will the results of this survey be reported to Touchpoints as part of quarterly reporting obligations specified in OMB Circular A-11 Section 280?
[ ] Yes
[ ] No
[ ] Not a survey
How will you collect the information? (Check all that apply)
[ x] Web-based or other forms of Social Media
[ ] Telephone
[ x] In-person
[ x] Other, Explain: A paper version can also be provided.
Who will you collect the information from?
Explain who will be interviewed and why the group is appropriate for the Federal program / service to connect with. Please provide a description of how you plan to identify your potential group of respondents and if only a sample will be solicited for feedback, how you will select them(e.g., anyone who provided an email address to a call center rep, a representative sample of Veterans who received outpatient services in May 2019, do you have a list of customers to reach out to (e.g., a CRM database that has the contact information, intercept interviews at a particular field office?)
The survey will be conducted among the general public attendees of Risk Map Open House meetings and community official attendees at all other Risk MAP meetings (Discovery, CCO, FRR, Resilience, etc.)
How will you ask a respondent to provide this information?
(e.g., after an application is submitted online, the final screen will present the opportunity to provide feedback by presenting a link to a feedback form / an actual feedback form)
Respondents will be provided with access to the survey after meetings via [QR code, follow up email with link, paper survey].
What will the activity look like?
Describe the information collection activity – e.g. what happens when a person agrees to participate? Will facilitators or interviewers be used? What’s the format of the interview/focus group? If a survey, describe the overall survey layout/length/other details? If User Testing, what actions will you observe / how will you have respondents interact with a product you need feedback on?
Community officials and general public will both receive a 15 question survey; seven multiple choice questions, seven 5 point Likert scale questions, and one free-text box. All questions will be voluntary, none are required. The survey was developed based on OMB’s A-11 guidance.
Questions will cover touchpoint satisfaction, confidence in knowledge gained and ability to act, intended actions, and awareness of information sources
Please provide your question list.
Paste here the questions or prompts presented to participants in your activity. If you have an interview / facilitator guide, that can be attached to the submission and referenced here.

I certify the following to be true:
The collections are voluntary;
The collections are low-burden for respondents (based on considerations of total burden hours or burden-hours per respondent) and are low-cost for both the respondents and the Federal Government;
The collections are non-controversial;
Any collection is targeted to the solicitation of opinions from respondents who have experience with the program or may have experience with the program in the near future;
Personally identifiable information (PII) is collected only to the extent necessary and is not retained;
Information gathered is intended to be used for general service improvement and program management purposes
The agency will follow the procedures specified in OMB Circular A-11 Section 280 for the required quarterly reporting to OMB of trust data and experience driver data from surveys.
Outside of the quarterly reporting mentioned in the bullet immediately above, if the agency intends to release journey maps, user personas, reports, or other data-related summaries stemming from this collection, the agency must include appropriate caveats around those summaries, noting that conclusions should not be generalized beyond the sample, considering the sample size and response rates. The agency must submit the data summary itself (e.g., the report) and the caveat language mentioned above to OMB before it releases them outside the agency. OMB will engage in a passback process with the agency.
