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 began data collection in March 2024.
The Service Annual Survey (SAS) provided 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 purposed these data to develop important measures of economic activity. These estimates were critical for the calculation of the gross domestic product (GDP), market research, forecasts, investment decisions, and media/news reports.
