Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service 

Title: Stakeholder/Customer 

Satisfaction Survey. 

OMB Control Number: 0579–NEW. 

Summary of Collection: In 2003, the 

Plant Health Program (PHP) unit, Plant 

Protection and Quarantine, Animal and 

Plant Health Inspection Service 

(APHIS), obtained from the 

International Organization of 

Standardization (ISO, nongovernmental 

worldwide network of national 

standards institutes) certification in the 

ISO 9001;2008 standard for its permit 

services. To meet the ISO 9001;2008 

standards, an organization must 

demonstrate its ability to consistently 

provide a product that meets customer 

quality requirements and applicable 

regulatory requirements, while aiming 

to enhance customer satisfaction 

through effective application of the 

system, including processes for 

continual improvement of its 

performance. In order to remain in 

compliance with Clause 8.2.1 (Customer 

Satisfaction) of the ISO 9001;2008 

standard, PHP must measure the 

performance of its quality management 

system by monitoring information 

related to customer perception in 

relationship to customer requirements. 

PHP has determined that the best 

method for obtaining this information is 

through the use of stakeholder/customer 

satisfaction surveys. 

Need and Use of the Information: PHP 

will collect information from the survey 

to solicit stakeholder and customer 

feedback with regards to their 

satisfaction with the regulatory services 

of Permit Services, Pest Permit 

Evaluations, and National Identification 

Services, which is a compliance 

requirement of the ISO 9001;2008 

standard. Without the information it 

would seriously affect APHIS’ ability to 

remain in compliance with the ISO 

9001;2008 international standards. 

Description of Respondents: Business 

or other for-profit. 

Number of Respondents: 500. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

On occasion. 

Total Burden Hours: 80.
