The Quarterly Survey of Philippine Business and Industry (QSPBI) is one of the designated statistical activities of the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA). It provides quarterly data on employment, compensation, revenue/sales and inventory for national accounts estimation. Relatedly, it aims to capture, collect and generate the data for all the sectors under the 2009 Philippine Standard Industrial Classification (PSIC).
Moreover, value of production, inventories and capacity utilization are also collected for Mining and Quarrying, Manufacturing, Electricity, Gas, Steam and Air Conditioning Supply, Water Supply; Sewerage, Waste Management and Remediation Activities sector.
The survey is one of the main sources of data in the compilation of the Quarterly National Accounts (QNA) and in the construction of the Quarterly Economic Indicators (QEI). The Macroeconomics Accounts Service (MAS), of the PSA, is the main user of the QSPBI data. Also, the quarterly total retail trade (G47) revenue data from the QSPBI will be utilized by the Department of Economic Statistics of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas for monetary policy review.

QSPBI Sample:
Comprising the QSPBI sample are the set of industry leaders for each key industries in the national level and the sets of industry leaders for each key industries in each of the 17 administrative regions.
On the basis of similarity of activities, number of establishments and the concern on data needs, the industries are grouped by 3 or 5-digit PSIC (sectors/sub-sectors, referred to as the industry strata) usually following the industry groupings in the latest establishment census or survey (CPBI/ASPBI). From these groups of industries, national and regional key industries were selected. The key industries were determined based on its importance measured in terms of the industry's value added (VA) contribution to the sector's total value added at the national and regional level.
Industry leaders (sample establishments) for each key industry in the national level are known as the National Sample. While the sets of industry leaders for each region comprises the Regional Sample. These sample establishments are selected based on the computed revenue concentration ratios which determine the establishments' contribution to the sector's/sub-sector's total revenue. Establishments listed in the List of Establishments (LE) and are classified in the certainty employment size strata are also included in the sample.
The QSPBI sample selection is based on cut-off sampling design. The QSPBI covers sets of industry leaders for each key industry in the national level and in each of the 17 administrative regions.
Industry leaders for the key industries in the national level are known as the National Sample. While the set of industry leaders for each region comprises the Regional Sample. The selection of the national and regional samples are discussed in the following sections.
Number of sample establishments are selected based on the following criteria:
1. Generally, the key industries (3-digit PSIC) for each sector are determined based on their contribution to the sector's total value added. The value added estimates from the result of the latest Annual Survey or Census of Philippine Business and Industry (ASPBI/CPBI) are used as basis in the selection.
After ranking in descending order the value added (VA) concentration ratios of all 3-digit industry groups in each sector within a region and at the national level, all industries accounting for the upper 80% (except manufacturing) and 90% for manufacturing sector of the total value added of the sector are included and tagged as key industry.
All establishments accounting for 80 percent of the total revenue of the selected key industry are included as sample. However, to keep the total sample size manageable, a maximum of 15 sample establishments per key industry is set.
2. Also considering the importance of the sector and to have a good representation because of the relatively smaller number of establishments engaged in the activity, all the 3-digit industry groups under the Mining and Quarrying Sector (PSIC B) are taken as key industries regardless of their value added.
Along the same consideration, the following activities in Manufacturing Sector (PSIC C) are also included as key industries i.e C19200, C19900, C23940 and C30111.
3. The size of establishment which is determined by its total employment is an indicator of industry leadership. In order to capture the contribution of establishments with large employment, certainty employment sizes were set for each sector. All establishments with Total Employment (TE) of 200 and over for sector D, E, F, H, I, J, K, L, M, P, Q, R and S. For sector C, G and N, all establishments with TE of 500 and over.
4. Because of the increasing importance to the country's economy, the following industry groups are also included as key industries: BPO activities, Holding Companies, and on industries engaged in ICT, R&D, creative industries and health and wellness services. These were maintained starting with the 2006 survey round and additional ICT-BPO activities.

Other [oth]: self-administered questionnaire, online questionnaire and face-to-face interview.
The Regional Directors (RDs) are responsible for the monitoring and supervision of the QSPBI activities in the provinces within their jurisdiction. The Provincial Statistics Officers (PSOs), on the other hand, are responsible for the supervision of the QSPBI activities in their respective provinces during the distribution, collection, manual processing (field-editing) and machine processing phases.
The PSOs and the RDs are provided the access on the online monitoring and control system (MTS) in their respective areas to monitor the status of distribution and the collection of the accomplished QSPBI questionnaires.
To facilitate the reporting and tracking of the status of the sample establishments, the online MTS was developed for use by the field offices and by the Services Statistics Division (SSD).

Data Processing
To determine the completeness, consistency and reasonableness of entries in the accomplished questionnaires, the field office staff field edited and verified the accomplished reports based on specified editing and consistency checks instructions.
Doubtful entries were resolved immediately at the Provincial Office through phone calls or personal visits by defining or clarifying problems regarding the establishments' reports.
Doubtful entries were resolved immediately at the Provincial Office through phone calls or personal visits by defining or clarifying problems regarding the establishments' reports.
Data Appraisal
Data Evaluation:
Evaluation of the reports from establishments is done by comparing the growth rates of the variables in the current quarter report with the previous quarter report. That is, the ratio of the two succeeding (consecutive) reports for each of the data items should be within a specified range. These set ranges are based on the observed movements or trends from the historical reports of the establishments within the same industry groups. Reports that deviate from these ranges need to be verified with the establishment/respondent for correction or explanation.
Field Awards:
The Field Awards is an incentive system for the PSA regional and provincial offices to motivate the field offices to perform quality outputs in mandated activities and to conduct programs to support and promote its mission and vision. It also aims to increase PSA visibility not only among sub-national and local government agencies but also with the private sectors.

Evaluation of the reports from establishments is done by comparing the growth rates of the variables in the current quarter report with the previous quarter report. That is, the ratio of the two succeeding (consecutive) reports for each of the data items should be within a specified range. These set ranges are based on the observed movements or trends from the historical reports of the establishments within the same industry groups. Reports that deviate from these ranges need to be verified with the establishment/respondent for correction or explanation.
