Abstract:
The CDP Supply Chain Climate Change Information Request is an electronic questionnaire designed to collect information that is widely used by large commercial and governmental organizations to understand, assess, and mitigate potentially disruptive and costly supply chain risks and environmental impacts. The questionnaire is administered by CDP North America, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (“CDP”). CDP administers the questionnaire annually on behalf of over 590 institutional investors, 200 major corporations, and several large governmental purchasing organizations in addition to the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). CDP’s most recent annual survey was directed to over 20,000 companies, with over 9,600 electing to respond. Under the previously approved information collection request, GSA has directed CDP since 2017 to include several hundred major Federal contractors annually among its potential survey respondents. In accordance with 31 U.S. Code § 3512(c)(1)(B), GSA uses the information received from these companies via CDP to inform and develop purchasing policies and contract requirements necessary to safeguard Federal assets against waste, loss, and misappropriation resulting from unmitigated exposure to supply chain energy market and environmental risks. In accordance with Executive Orders 13990, 14008, and 14030, GSA also uses the information to inform development of policies and programs to reduce climate risks and greenhouse gas emissions associated with federal procurement activities. This collection request is for GSA to direct CDP to survey specific recipients using CDP’s standard questionnaire. CDP, not GSA, is solely responsible for authoring and administering the questionnaire. GSA is not requesting (and does not have the ability as part of CDP’s process) to revise the questionnaire, including to revise questions or to include or exclude specific questions. GSA-requested recipients will be notified both by CDP and directly by GSA that GSA is a sponsor of the collection and will use the information.

Short Statement:
In order to better achieve the purposes described above, GSA intends to expand this program from 300 to 500 maximum annual recipients, which will increase the number of elected respondents to 250—up from the previously approved 130. The burden worksheet has been updated to reflect this increase. Estimates of response rates per category have been updated based on GSA’s latest data from the existing collection, and cost burden has been adjusted due to increases in the GS equivalent pay rate.
