*Needs and Uses:*                     The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) would like to conduct a Customer Satisfaction Survey to obtain feedback from customers on the quality of BEA products and services. The results of the information collected will serve to assist BEA in improving the quality of its data products and its methods of dissemination.                 

BEA needs to inform and educate all of its staff about the public's perception of the agency. This customer satisfaction survey will give us first-hand knowledge of what our customers want, need, and expect from BEA. To more effectively inform and educate the public on what we do, how we do it, and why we do it, we need to obtain reliable information on how the public views our output. This results of this survey will serve that purpose. 

The Survey and a cover letter with instructions on how to complete the survey will be mailed to 2,000 potential respondents. BEA will request that responses be returned 30 days after the mailing. The survey will also be posted on BEA's web site for 5,500 potential respondents. The survey will be designed so that all responses are anonymous and therefore eliminates the necessity for recordkeeping of respondents. 

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals from profit and non-profit organizations and individuals from other Federal, state, and local government agencies.
