TEHRAN- The head of Iran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines, and Agriculture (ICCIMA) has announced the design of a questionnaire for the "monitoring and assessment of the status of enterprises" at the national level, aiming to create a precise data foundation for decision-making in wartime conditions.

Samad Hassanzadeh, Head of the Iran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture, stated: “This questionnaire has been developed by the Iran Chamber Research Center in collaboration with provincial chambers of commerce.”

By completing it, heads of chambers across the country will contribute to the systematic collection of field data on the status of manufacturing, service, and agricultural enterprises, the extent of damages incurred, and changes in key indicators such as production, employment, and the market, he added.

He noted that the "Monitoring and Assessment of the Status of Enterprises" questionnaire, designed with a structured and analytical approach, is organized into eight main sections: enterprise details, geographical location, type of activity, pre-war status, current status, type and severity of damages, urgent needs, and evaluation by the provincial chamber.

He noted that this questionnaire enables the aggregation and precise analysis of data at the national level.
Hassanzadeh announced that the deadline for submitting the initial field data from chambers across the country to the Iran Chamber Research Center is set for April 9.

He stated that the collected data will serve as the basis for designing targeted supportive and compensatory policies during the crisis period, as well as for planning economic reconstruction in the post-crisis period.

According to the report by the Iran Chamber Online news base, to establish uniformity in procedures among chambers of commerce nationwide in the data collection and entry process, a "Questionnaire Completion Guide" has been prepared as a supporting document. This guide, while clarifying the definitions of indicators, methods for estimating damages, and qualitative data requirements, emphasizes the recording of accurate, documented information and the use of reliable estimates when necessary.
