-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980
(44 U.S.C. 3501), the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Secretariat
has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request to
review and approve an extension of a currently approved information
collection requirement concerning Information Regarding Previous
Contracts.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Beverly Fayson, Office of Federal Acquisition Policy, GSA (202) 501-
4755.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
When the same item or class of items is being acquired by more than
one agency, the exchange and coordination of pertinent information,
particularly cost and pricing data, is necessary to promote uniformity
of treatment of major issues and the resolution of particularly
difficult or controversial issues. For this reason, the contracting
officer, early in a negotiation of a contract, or in connection with
the review of a subcontract, must request the contractor to furnish
information as to the contractor's or subcontractor's previous
Government contracts and subcontracts for the same or similar end items
and major subcontractor components. This information is particularly
beneficial during the period of acquisition planning, presolicitation,
evaluation, and preaward survey. The information is used to determine a
firm's responsibility.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Public reporting burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average 15 minutes per response, including the time for
reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and
maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate
or any other aspect of this collection of information, including
suggestions for reducing this burden, to General Services
Administration, FAR Secretariat, 18th & F Streets, NW., Room 4037,
Washington, DC 20405.
The annual reporting burden is estimated as follows: Respondents,
2,000; responses per respondent, 10; total annual responses, 20,000;
preparation hours per response, .25; and total response burden hours,
5,000.
Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requester may obtain copies of OMB
applications or justifications from the General Services
Administration, FAR Secretariat (VRS), Room 4037, Washington, DC 20405,
telephone (202) 501-4755. Please cite OMB Control No. 9000-0036,
Information Regarding Previous Contracts, in all correspondence.
Dated: August 2, 1995.
Beverly Fayson,
FAR Secretariat.
