Abstract

In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, DoD announces the proposed extension of a public information collection requirement and seeks public comment on the provisions thereof. DoD invites comments on: whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of DoD, including whether the information will have practical utility; the accuracy of DoD's estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved this information collection requirement for use under Control Number 0704-0479 through August 31, 2024. DoD proposes that OMB approve an extension of the information collection requirement, to expire three years after the approval date.

    Needs and Uses: The contract clause at DFARS 252.242-7005, 
Contractor Business Systems, requires contractors to respond to written 
determinations of significant deficiencies in the contractor's business 
systems as defined in the clause. The information contractors are 
required to submit in response to findings of significant deficiencies 
in their accounting system, estimating system, material management and 
accounting system and purchasing system has previously been approved by 
the Office of Management and Budget under separate clearance requests. 
This information collection specifically addresses information required 
by DFARS clause 252.234-7002, Earned Value Management System, for 
contractors to respond to determinations of significant deficiencies in 
a contractor's Earned Value Management System (EVMS). The requirements 
apply to entities that are contractually required to maintain an EVMS. 
DoD needs this information to document actions to correct significant 
deficiencies in a contractor's EVMS. DoD contracting officers use the 
information to mitigate the risk of unallowable and unreasonable costs 
being charged on government contracts.
