The Service Annual Survey (SAS) transitioned to the Annual Integrated Economic Survey (AIES). The data formerly collected for the SAS will now be collected as part of the AIES, which will begin data collection in early 2024.
The Service Annual Survey (SAS) provides annual nationwide estimates of revenue, expenses, and other measures for most traditional service industries. Being the only source of annual receipt estimates for these industries, federal agencies among other data users purpose these data to develop important measures of economic activity. These estimates are critical for the calculation of the gross domestic product (GDP), market research, forecasts, investment decisions, and media/news reports.
