DACES Second Annual Report
In its first two years, over 95,000 DACES surveys have been completed, representing over 76,000 Active Army Soldiers. In the second year of DACES, the Army revised the survey in order to reduce the burden and increase the utility of the survey, expanded access to DACES by moving the survey to a public network, stood up a dashboard with DACES findings for commanders in Army Vantage, and fulfilled numerous inquiries for Army Senior Leaders and committees as they made policy recommendations.
The Army launched a new survey which allows Soldiers to voice their concerns directly and anonymously to Army leadership. DACES is a customized survey, with questions tailored to the individual Soldier based on their responses to previous questions. The Army will use the results of DACES to inform retention efforts and help the Army create retention incentives and improve quality of life programs in order to retain talent.
