Statistical Policy Directive #2 And the PRA Clearance Process Federal agencies are required to adhere to all standards for every statistical survey, but OMB recognizes that these standards cannot be applied uniformly or precisely in every situation. The agency should include in its documentation the reasons why the standard could not be met and what actions the agency is taking to address any resulting issues. The standards and guidelines are not meant to be exhaustive of all information quality efforts, and are not meant to substitute for the extensive existing literature. 5
