SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. OMB Control Number, Title, and Any Associated Form(s)
9000-0152, Service Contracting.
B. Need and Uses
This justification supports an extension of OMB Control No. 9000-
0152. This clearance covers the information that offerors must submit
to comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)
requirement:
<bullet> FAR 52.237-10, Identification of Uncompensated Overtime.
This provision requires offerors, when professional or technical
services are acquired on the basis of the number of hours to be
provided, to identify uncompensated overtime hours in excess of 40
hours per week, whether at the prime or subcontract level. This
includes uncompensated overtime hours that are in indirect cost pools
for personnel whose regular hours are normally charged direct.
The contracting officer will use the collected information to
perform an adequate cost realism analysis of the offerors' proposed
labor rates. Proposals which include unrealistically low labor rates,
or which do not otherwise demonstrate cost realism, will be considered
by the contracting officer in a risk assessment and evaluated
appropriately. The primary purpose for obtaining the information and
using it during the source selection process is to discourage the use
of uncompensated overtime.
C. Annual Burden
Respondents: 19,738.
Total Annual Responses: 19,738.
Total Burden Hours: 9,869.
D. Public Comment
A 60-day notice was published in the Federal Register at 87 FR
9356, on February 18, 2022. A comment was received; however, it did not
change the estimate of the burden.
Comment: The commenter expressed his approval of the details set
forth under the Federal Regulations in regard to serving contracts and
other collaborative efforts in the aerospace industry.
Response: Noted. The commenter did not express an opinion on
whether the estimated number of burden hours is accurate; or ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information.
Obtaining Copies: Requesters may obtain a copy of the information
collection documents from the GSA Regulatory Secretariat Division by
calling 202-501-4755 or emailing <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#63243022310604300600230410024d040c15"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="2d6a7e6c7f484a7e484e6d4a5e4c034a425b">[email protected]</span></a>. Please cite OMB
