Short Statement:
Adjustments are made to the public and Government burden estimates based on the following: ● The estimated number of respondents and responses per year is based on the average of FPDS data for the three most recent fiscal years (2019 through 2021). The parameters for data pulled from FPDS for each clause are consistent with the prescription for each clause, resulting in changes to the number of respondents and average contracts per respondent for the individual burden estimates. ● The estimated annual burden hours for the clauses at FAR 52.232-1 through 52.232-4, 52.232-6, 52.232-7, and 52.232-10 is reduced from 2,586,245 to 401,264 burden hours. The prior estimate under OMB Control No. 9000-0070 cited FPDS data for FY 2018. However, it appears the report may have duplicated some entries by failing to exclude contracts as described in the list of type of contracts covered under items A.12&13 for these clauses. ● The estimated cost per hour is based on use of the calendar year 2022 OPM GS wage rate for the rest of the United States.
