SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
FAR 15.812-1(c) and the clause at FAR 52.215-26, Integrity of Unit
Prices, require offerors and contractors under Federal contracts to
identify in their proposals those supplies which they will not
manufacture or to which they will not contribute significant value. The
policies included in the FAR are required by section 501 of Public Law
98-577 (for the civilian agencies) and section 927 of Public Law 99-500
(for DOD and NASA). The rule eliminates reporting requirements on
contracts with civilian agencies for commercial items.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average 5 minutes per line item, including the time for
reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and
maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information.
The annual reporting burden is estimated as follows: Respondents,
7,822; responses per respondent, 95; total annual responses, 743,090;
preparation hours per response, .084; and total response burden hours,
62,420.
Dated: March 26, 1996.

FAR Secretariat.
