strategically to address the evolving scope and increasing complexity 
of tax administration. In order to do this, IRS must realize their 
operational efficiencies and effectively manage costs by improving 
enterprise-wide resource allocation and streamlining processes using 
feedback from various behavioral research techniques.
    To assist the Agency is accomplishing the goal outlined in the 
Strategic Plan, the Wage and Investment Division continuously maintains 
a ``customer-first'' focus through routinely soliciting information 
concerning the needs and characteristics of its customers and 
implementing programs based on the information received. W&I Strategies 
and Solutions (WISS), is developing the implementation of a Behavioral 
Laboratory to identify, plan and deliver business improvement processes

commitment to improving taxpayer service delivery. Improving agency 
programs requires ongoing assessment of service delivery. WISS, through 
the Behavioral Laboratory, will collect, analyze, and interpret 
information gathered through this generic clearance to identify 
strengths and weaknesses of current services and make improvements in 
service delivery based on feedback provided by taxpayers and employees 
of the Internal Revenue Service.

    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 22,050.
