SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. OMB Control Number, Title, and Any Associated Form(s)

    9000-0037, Presolicitation Notice and Response.

B. Need and Uses

    This clearance covers the information that offerors must submit to 
comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 
requirements:
    <bullet> FAR 14.205. For sealed bidding, presolicitation notices 
briefly describe requirements and provide other essential information 
to enable potential bidders to determine whether they have an interest 
in the invitation and if appropriate, respond by communicating their 
interest in receiving the invitation for bid.
    <bullet> FAR 15.201(c). For contracting by negotiation, 
presolicitation notices provide a means of early exchanges of 
information about future acquisitions between Government and industry, 
to which potential offerors may respond with feedback concerning 
acquisition strategy, terms and conditions, and any other concerns or 
questions.
    <bullet> FAR 36.213-2. For construction contracts, presolicitation 
notices are required for construction requirements in excess of the 
simplified acquisition threshold to communicate essential information 
on the requirements, to which potential bidders may respond by 
communicating their interest in receiving the invitation for bid.
    Presolicitation notices are used by the Government to inform, and, 
where specified, solicit a response from potential offerors or bidders. 
The primary purposes of the notices are to improve small business 
access to acquisition information and enhance competition by 
identifying contracting and subcontracting opportunities.
    The contracting officer will use the information as follows:
    <bullet> For sealed bidding, to include interested bidders in the 
distribution of the invitations for bids; and
    <bullet> For contracting by negotiation, to consider the industry 
feedback in shaping the acquisition strategy.
