SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority: Public Law 104-13; 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521.
Title: Department of Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation
(VAAR)832.202-4, Security for Government Financing.
OMB Control Number: 2900-0688.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: The information that is gathered under VAAR 832.202-4
will be used by the VA contracting officer to assess whether or not the
contractor's overall financial condition represents adequate security
to warrant paying the contractor in advance. FAR subpart 32.2
authorizes the use of certain types of Government financing on
commercial item purchases. 41 United States Code (U.S.C.) 255(f)
requires the Government to obtain adequate security for Government
financing. However, FAR 32.202-4(a)(2) provides that, subject to agency
regulations, the contracting officer may determine that an offeror's
financial condition is adequate security. VAAR 832.202-4 Security for
Government Financing specifies the type of information that the
contracting officer may obtain to determine whether or not the
offeror's financial condition constitutes adequate security.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of
information was published at 85 FR 60 on March 31, 2021, page 16845.
Affected Public: Business or other for profit.
Estimated Annual Burden: 63 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 60 minutes.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 21.
By direction of the Secretary.

VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of Enterprise and Integration, Data
