SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
[[Page 73000]]
A. Purpose
The General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR)
552.236-79, Construction-Contractor-as-Constructor, requires the
contractor to submit proposals to establish the final estimated cost of
the work, to convert the contract to a firm-fixed-price, and to
determine the final settlement for construction-manager-as-constructor
(CMc) projects.
The CMc refers to a project management and contracting technique
that is one of three predominant methods used for acquiring
construction services by GSA. The other two methods are design-bid-
build and design-build.
The information is used by contracting officers to evaluate
proposals and negotiate contract modifications during contract
administration. GSA would be unable to assess readily and equitably
offers fairly and competitively if they were not allowed to collect
data required in the information collection.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Total public reporting burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average 400 total hours ($33,004) annually, including the
time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources,
gathering, and maintaining the data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information. The estimated burden hours to
the public for the below clauses are as follows:
GSAR 552.236-79, Construction-Contractor-as-Constructor, requires
the contractor to submit proposals to establish the final estimated
cost of the work, to convert the contract to a firm-fixed-price, and to
determine the final settlement.
Respondents: 5.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Total Annual Responses: 10.
Hours per Response: 40.
Total Response Burden Hours: 400.
Cost per Hour: $82.51.
Estimated Cost Burden to the Public: $33,004.
GSAR 552.236-80, Accounting Records, contains a recordkeeping
requirement that is subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
3501, et seq.). The clause requires the contractor to keep all relevant
documents for a period of three years after the final payment. However,
the clause does not add burden to what is already estimated for the
existing FAR clause at 52.215-2, Audit and Records by a previous
information collection (see OMB Control Number 9000-0034).
C. Public Comments
A 60-day notice published in the Federal Register at 87 FR 55007 on
September 8, 2022. No comments were received.
Obtaining Copies of Proposals: 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#f8bfabb9aa9d9fab9d9bb89f8b99d69f978e"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="93d4c0d2c1f6f4c0f6f0d3f4e0f2bdf4fce5">[email protected]</span></a>. Please
