DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
National Institute of Standards and Technology
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35).
Agency: National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Title: Baldrige Performance Excellent Program (BPEP) Team Leader
Consensus and Team Leader Site Visit Information Collections.
OMB Control Number: 0693-0079.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Extension and revision of a current information
collection.
Number of Respondents: Examiner Performance Assessment--40 per
year; Team Leader Performance Assessment--300 per year.
Average Hours per Response: Examiner Performance Assessment--20
minutes; Team Leader Performance Assessment--5 minutes.
Burden Hours: Examiner Performance Assessment--13.5 hours; Team
Leader Performance Assessment--25 hours.
Needs and Uses: The purpose of the information is to help staff
collect data on the skills of the examiners, including alumni
examiners, in order to best manage training and selection. Because the
examiner selection is so competitive, examiners need to demonstrate
competencies such as understanding the Baldrige Criteria, team skills,
and writing skills. The program also needs to collect peer-based
information to understand an examiner's skill level in order to make
decisions on whether the examiner should be elevated to ``senior
examiner'' and therefore team leader. The blinded data will be shared
with the team leader for improvement purposes, and for future
assignments.
Affected Public: Individual or Households.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
This information collection request may be viewed at reginfo.gov.
Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce collections
currently under review by OMB.
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice
to [email protected] or fax to (202) 395-5806.
