SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

The LISTS (Locator and Information Services Tracking System) form is used at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center to collect locator information on support contractors when the information cannot be imported from other systems. The LISTS also serves as repository for contact information in the event of an emergency during or outside official duty hours. Information collected is also used for short and long-term institutional planning.

II. Method of Collection

The preferred method of collection is electronic. Approximately 60% of the data is collected electronically by means of a data entry screen that duplicates the Goddard Space Flight Center form GSFC 24-27 in the LISTS system. The remaining 40% of the data is keyed into the system from submissions of a hardcopy version of form GSFC 24-27.
