SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title and OMB Number: Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation
Supplement (DFARS) Part 217, Special Contracting Methods, and related
clauses at 252.217; OMB Control Number 0704-0214.
Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit and not-for-profit
institutions.
Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
Frequency: On Occasion
Number of Respondents: 4,815.
Responses per Respondent: Approximately 6.4.
Annual Responses: 30,758.
Average Burden per Response: Approximately 7.5 hours.
Annual Burden Hours: 229,436.
Needs and Uses: DFARS part 217 prescribes policies and procedures
for acquiring supplies and services by special contracting methods.
Contracting officers use the required information as follows:
DFARS 217.7004(a): When solicitations permit the exchange (or
trade-in) of personal property and application of the exchange
allowance to the acquisition of similar property, offerors must provide
the prices for the new items being acquired both with and without any
exchange. Contracting officers use the information to make an informed
decision regarding the reasonableness of the prices for both the new
and trade-in items.
DFARS 217.7404-3(b): When awarded an undefinitized contract action,
contractors are required to submit a qualifying proposal in accordance
with the definitization schedule provided in the contract. Contracting
officers use this information to complete a meaningful analysis of a
contractor's proposal in a timely manner.
DFARS 217.7505(d): When responding to sole-source solicitations
that include the acquisition of replenishment parts, offerors submit
price and quantity data on any Government orders for the replenishment
part(s) issued within the most recent 12 months. Contracting officers
use this information to evaluate recent price increases for sole-source
replenishment parts.
DFARS clause 252.217-7012: Included in master agreements for repair
and alteration of vessels, paragraph (d) of the clause requires
contractors to show evidence of insurance under the agreement.
Contracting officers use this information to ensure that the contractor
is adequately insured when performing work under the agreement.
Paragraphs (f) and (g) of the clause require contractors to notify the
contracting officer of any property loss or damage for which the
Government is liable under the agreement and submit a request, with
supporting documentation, for reimbursement of the cost of replacement
or repair. Contracting officers use this information to stay informed
of lost or damaged property for which the Government is liable, and to
determine the appropriate course of action for replacement or repair of
the property.
DFARS provision 252.217-7026: Included in certain solicitations for
supplies that are being acquired under other than full and open
competition, the provision requires the apparently successful offeror
to identify their sources of supply so that competition can be enhanced
in future acquisitions.
DFARS clause 252.217-7028: When performing under contracts for
overhaul, maintenance, and repair, contractors must submit a work
request and proposal for ``over and above'' work that is within the
scope of the contract, but not covered by the line item(s) under the
contract, and necessary in order to satisfactorily complete the
contract. This requirement allows the Government to review the need for
pending work before the contractor begins performance.
DoD Clearance Officer: Mr. Tucker Lucas. Requests for copies of the
information collection proposal should be sent to Mr. Lucas at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#097e617a27646a2468656c71276c7a6d27646b71276d6d246d666d2460676f667b64687d606667246a6665656c6a7d6066677a496468606527646065"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="9becf3e8b5f6f8b6faf7fee3b5fee8ffb5f6f9e3b5ffffb6fff4ffb6f2f5fdf4e9f6faeff2f4f5b6f8f4f7f7fef8eff2f4f5e8dbf6faf2f7b5f6f2f7">[email protected]</span></a>.
