1. Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

2. Whether our estimate of the public 

burden of this collection is accurate, 

and based on valid assumptions and 

methodology; and 

3. Ways in which we can minimize 

the burden of the collection of

OPM’s Human Resources Strategy and 

Evaluation Solutions performs 

assessment and related consultation 

activities for Federal agencies on a 

reimbursable basis. The assessments are 

authorized by various statutes and 

regulations: Section 4702 of Title 5, 

U.S.C; E.O. 12862; E.O. 13715; Section 

1128 of the National Defense 

Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004, 

Public Law 108–136; 5 U.S.C. 1101 note, 

1103(a)(5), 1104, 1302, 3301, 3302, 

4702, 7701 note; E.O. 13197, 66 FR 

7853, 3 CFR 748 (2002); E.O. 10577, 12 

FR 1259, 3 CFR, 1954–1958 Comp., p. 

218; and Section 4703 of Title 5, United 

States Code. 

This collection request includes 

surveys we currently use and plan to 

use during the next three years to 

measure agency performance, climate, 

engagement, and leadership 

effectiveness. OMB No. 3206–0252 

covers a broad range of surveys all 

focused on improving organizational 

performance. Non-Federal respondents 

will almost never receive more than one 

of these surveys. All of these surveys 

consist of Likert-type, mark-one, and 

mark-all-that-apply items, and may 

include a small number of open-ended 

comment items. Administration of 

Organizational Assessment Surveys 

(OAS) typically consists of a customized 

set of 50–150 standard items pulled 

from an item bank of nearly 500 items. 

The surveys almost always include a 

small set of 5–10 custom items 

developed to meet the agency’s specific 

needs. The OAS is a general survey that 

subsumes the Federal Employee 

Viewpoint Survey (FEVS). OPM’s 

Human Resources Strategy and 

Evaluation Solutions administers the 

FEVS for agencies to gather feedback 

from employee groups not covered by 

the official FEVS administration. Exit 

Surveys consist of approximately 60 

items that assess reasons why 

employees decided to leave their 

organization. Customization is possible. 

The New Leaders Onboarding 

Assessment (NLOA) is a combined 

assessment consisting of approximately 

130 items, including items measuring 

organizational climate, employee 

engagement, and leadership. New 

Employee Surveys consist of 

approximately 100 items that assess 

satisfaction with the hiring, orientation, 

and socialization of new employees. 

Training Needs Assessment Surveys 

consist of approximately 100 items that 

assess an agency’s climate for training 

and employees’ training preferences. 

Program Evaluation surveys evaluate the 

effectiveness of government initiatives, 

programs, and offices. Program 

Evaluation surveys are always 

customized to assess specific program 

elements. Program Evaluation surveys 

may contain from 20 to 200 items, with 

an average of approximately 100 items. 

The surveys included under OMB No. 

3206–0252 are almost always 

administered electronically.

These surveys all measure leadership 

characteristics. Non-Federal

these surveys consist of Likert-type, 

mark-one, and mark-all-that-apply 

items, and may include a small number 

of open-ended comment items. OPM’s 

Leadership 360TM assessment measures 

the 28 competencies that comprise the 

five Executive Core Qualifications and 

Fundamental Competencies in the OPM 

leadership model. The assessment 

consists of 116 items. The assessment is 

almost never customized, although 

customization to meet an agency’s needs 

is possible. OPM’s Leadership Potential 

Assessment consists of 104 items 

focused on identifying individuals 

ready to move into supervisory 

positions. OPM’s Leadership Profiler 

consists of 245 items that measure 

leadership personality characteristics 

within a ‘‘Big 5’’ framework. These 

assessments are almost always 

administered electronically.
