DHS is encouraged to explore how it can improve the practical utility of this collection. TSA should explore how to better coordinate with other TSA Customer contact methods - including the customer call center, email address, the TSA comment webform, and the TSA Civil Rights complaint form. By August 2013 OMB requests that TSA provide to OMB a report regarding TSA's efforts to consolidate these collections, (to the extent possible and feasible) as a method to possibly improve the practical utility of the information collected. TSA should also consider the use of other information technology platforms for possibly collecting customer feedback.
