Public Information Collection Requirements Submitted to OMB for 
Review

    The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) submitted the 
following public information collection requirements to OMB for review 
and clearance under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35). Comments regarding these information collections should be 
addressed to the OMB reviewer listed at the end of the entry. Comments 
may also be addressed to, and copies of the submissions obtained from 
the Records Management Officer, Renee Poehls, [phone], M/AS/ISS, 
Room 930B, N.S., Washington, DC 20523.
    Date Submitted: January 27, 1995.
    Submitting Agency: U.S. Agency for International Development.
    OMB Number: None.
    Form Number: None.
    Type of Submission: Existing collection in use without OMB Control 
Number.
    Title: Agency for International Development Acquisition Regulations 
(AIDAR) Clause 752.70.26.
    Purpose: Section 635(b) of the Foreign Assistance Act (FAA) of 1961 
authorizes USAID to contract with any corporation, international 
organization, or other body or persons in or out of the United States 
in furtherance of the purposes and within the limitations of the FAA. 
USAID presently administers some 500 contracts for technical services 
with total estimated costs of approximately $10 billion dollars. To 
determine how well contractors are performing to meet the requirements 
of the contract, USAID requires periodic performance reports from 
contractors. The performance reporting requirements are contained in 
the USAID Acquisition Regulations (AIDAR) clause 752.70.26. USAID has 
recently revised this clause to be responsive to the National 
Performance Review's (NPR) procurement reform agenda which emphasizes 
outputs over inputs. Whereas the reports required by the AIDAR clause 
focused on the process and compliance with regulations, it now focuses 
on performance and progress toward meeting contract objectives.
    Annual Reporting Burden: Respondents: 250, Annual responses: 1000; 
Annual burden hours: 4000.
    Reviewer: Jeffery Hill [phone], Office of Management and 
Budget, Room 3201, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.

    Dated: February 27, 1995.
Genease E. Pettigrew,
Chief, Information Support Services Division, Office of Administrative 
Services, Bureau for Management.
