America Counts: Stories Behind the Numbers
Seven Annual Economic Surveys Combined into One
This month, the U.S. Census Bureau launches a new economic survey that will consolidate seven annual programs into one.
The Annual Integrated Economic Survey (AIES) will provide comprehensive national and subnational economy-wide data from seven surveys that up to now were conducted at different times each year.
The goal is two-fold: make the surveys easier for businesses to complete, which will result in improved quality and timelier data; and allow the Census Bureau to operate more efficiently to reduce costs.
On March 15, the Census Bureau will mail out the AIES survey to approximately 370,000 domestic, private sector, nonfarm employer businesses in the United States (50 states and the District of Columbia). The survey will be sent to a sample of small, medium and large businesses across most economic industries throughout the nation.
