02-17524. Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement; Reporting Requirements Update

AGENCY:

Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

DoD has issued a final rule amending the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to provide contract action reporting requirements for Fiscal Year 2003. The rule makes changes to the Individual Contracting Action Report and the corresponding reporting instructions.

EFFECTIVE DATE:

October 1, 2002.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Ms. Susan Schneider, Defense Acquisition Regulations Council, OUSD (AT&L) DP (DAR), IMD 3C132, 3062 Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-3062. Telephone [phone]; facsimile [phone]. Please cite DFARS Case 2002-D010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

This final rule contains Fiscal Year 2003 requirements for completion of DD Form 350, Individual Contracting Action Report. DoD uses this form to collect statistical data on its contracting actions. The rule includes reporting changes related to indefinite-delivery contracts; performance-based service contracts; the SBA/OFPP pilot program for acquisition of services from small business concerns; purchases made using the Governmentwide purchase card; and purchases made by a DoD agency on behalf of another DoD or non-DoD agency. In addition, the rule contains editorial changes to clarify instructions for completion of DD Form 350.

DD Form 350, and other forms prescribed by the DFARS, are not included in the Code of Federal Regulations. The forms are available electronically via the Internet at http://web1.whs.osd.mil/​icdhome/​ddeforms.htm.

This rule was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

This rule will not have a significant cost or administrative impact on contractors or offerors, or a significant effect beyond the internal operating procedures of DoD. Therefore, publication for public comment is not required. However, DoD will consider comments from small entities concerning the affected DFARS subparts in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 610. Such comments should cite DFARS Case 2002-D010.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act

The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the rule does not impose any information collection requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.
