Abstract:

Many establishment surveys collect data covering a variety of concepts, such as financial information, human capital, organizational structure, or specialized projects. Data on these different topics are often kept in different administrative systems within the organization. Often times, no one person in an organization is the most knowledgeable about all of the different data or has access to all of the different systems. The survey respondent often has to collect and coordinate data from a variety of different internal contacts. Several National Science Foundation surveys encounter this situation. This paper describes these surveys and how they have explicitly given the survey respondent the role of survey coordinator.
