DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
48 CFR Part 215
Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement; Field Pricing
Reports
AGENCY: Department of Defense (DoD).
ACTION: Proposed rule with request for comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Director of Defense Procurement is proposing to amend the
Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to increase
the threshold for requesting a field pricing report for cost-type
proposals from offerors without significant estimating system
deficiencies.
DATES: Comments on the proposed rule should be submitted in writing to
the address shown below on or before August 22, 1995, to be considered
in the formulation of the final rule.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties should submit written comments to:
Defense Acquisition Regulations Council, Attn: Ms. Amy Williams,
PDUSD(A&T)DP(DAR), IMD 3D139, 3062 Defense Pentagon, Washington DC
20301-3062. Telefax number (703) 602-0350. Please cite DFARS Case 95-
D010 in all correspondence related to this issue.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ms. Amy Williams, (703) 602-0131.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
This proposed rule implements a recommendation of the Department of
Defense Procurement Process Reform Process Action Team. The rule amends
DFARS Subpart 15.8 by increasing, from $1,000,000 to $10,000,000, the
threshold for requesting a field pricing report for cost-type proposals
from offerors without significant estimating system deficiencies.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The proposed rule is not expected to have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., because the rule
primarily relates to application of Government resources for field
pricing reviews. An Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis has,
therefore, not been performed. Comments from small entities concerning
the affected DFARS subpart will be considered in accordance with
Section 610 of the Act. Such comments must be submitted separately and
cite DFARS Case 95-D010 in correspondence.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because this proposed
rule does not impose any new information collection requirements which
require the approval of OMB under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.
List of Subjects in 48 CFR Part 215
