SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    This information collection is for GSA Federal Supply Schedules 
(FSS) and non-FSS offerors and contractors subject to transactional 
data report (TDR) requirements. Transactional data encompasses the 
historical details of the products or services delivered by a 
contractor during the performance of task or delivery orders issued 
against a contract subject to TDR requirements. TDR requirements are 
found within Alternate I of General Services Administration Acquisition 
Regulation (GSAR) clause 552.238-80, Industrial Funding Fee and Sales 
Reporting; 552.216-75, Transactional Data Reporting; Alternate I of 
552.238-81, Price Reductions; 552.238-83 Examination of Records by GSA; 
552.238-85, Contractor's Billing Responsibilities; and 552.238-120, 
Economic Price Adjustment--Federal Supply Schedule Contracts. This 
information collection does not apply to GSA FSS offerors and 
contractors subject to pricing disclosures and sales reporting 
requirements. The burden associated with pricing disclosures and sales 
reporting requirements is covered under information collection OMB 
control number 3090-0235, Federal Supply Schedule Pricing Disclosures 
and Sales Reporting.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    The total estimated annual public cost burden and total estimated 
annual public burden hours for this information collection is estimated 
to be:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
               Year 1                            Years 2 & 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------
$121,766,340 Cost                    $69,731,624 Cost
1,553,495 hour                       1,044,217 hours
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The reason Year 1 numbers are higher than Years 2 & 3 numbers is 
due to the transition of existing FSS non-TDR contracts to TDR during 
Year 1 of this renewal period.
    These estimates are calculated by adding up the total estimated 
annual burden cost/hour for each of the GSAR clauses covered by this 
information collection. Additionally, these estimates take into account 
the following impacts:
    1. During the renewal period of this information collection, all 
FSS offerors and contractors will fall under TDR (i.e., FSS offerors 
and contractors will no longer be subject to the aforementioned pricing 
disclosures and sales reporting requirements). The transition to TDR is 
based on Class Deviation CD-2025-13, Revised Transactional Data 
Reporting (TDR) Requirements for the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) 
Program, which was issued on June 26, 2025. The class deviation (CD) 
amends the GSAR to remove certain pricing disclosures and sales 
reporting requirements and makes TDR requirements mandatory for the FSS 
program. As a result of this CD,
    a. The FSS solicitation will be amended to remove pricing 
disclosures and sales reporting requirements.
    b. Existing FSS contractors will need to transition to TDR. GSA 
anticipates the transition to be completed by the end of Year 1 of this 
renewal period.
    2. Alternate I of GSAR clause 552.216-70, Economic Price 
Adjustment--FSS Multiple Award Schedule Contract, was replaced by GSAR 
clause 552.238-120, Economic Price Adjustment--Federal Supply Schedule 
Contracts. This new clause is less burdensome than the prior clause and 
provides more flexibility.

Burden Cost/Hour Calculation

    The following provides the basis for calculating the burden cost/
hour for GSA clauses 552.216-75, and Alternate

[[Page 58561]]

I of GSAR clause 552.238-80. These calculations account for the 
aforementioned transition to TDR during this renewal period.
    Initial Setup:
    [cir] Estimated hourly rate & job position equivalency. The 
estimated hourly cost associated with this task is based on the task 
being accomplished by senior level personnel equivalent to a GS-14, 
Step 5 employee. A GS-14, Step 5 employee hourly rate for 2025 is 
$92.15 (``Rest of U.S.'' locality using OPM Salary Table 2025-RUS, 
Effective January 2025).
    [cir] Estimated hours by system for initial set-up. A contractor 
complying with TDR requirements will absorb a one-time setup burden for 
purposes of establishing a reporting system (i.e., automated reporting 
system vs. manual reporting system). The estimated setup time varies 
between automated and manual reporting systems. GSA estimates the 
average one-time initial setup burden is 10 hours for a manual system 
and 245 hours for an automated system.
    Monthly Reporting:
    [cir] Estimated hourly rate & job position equivalency. The 
estimated hourly cost associated with this task is based on the task 
being accomplished by mid-level personnel equivalent to a GS-12, Step 5 
employee. A GS-12, Step 5 employee hourly rate for 2022 is $65.58 
(i.e., using ``Rest of U.S.'' locality within the OPM Salary Table for 
2022-RUS, Effective January 2025).
    [cir] Categorization of contractors by sales revenue. GSA estimates 
the likelihood of contractors with lower to no reportable sales will 
spend relatively little time on reporting. In contrast, contractors 
with more reportable sales will face a higher reporting burden. To 
account for this difference, GSA is using the below sales revenue 
categories:

Category 1: No sales activity/revenue (i.e., $0.00)
Category 2: Sales between $0.01 and $25,000.00
Category 3: Sales between $25,000.01 and $250,000.00
Category 4: Sales between $250,000.01 and $1 million
Category 5: Sales over $1 million

    [cir] Automated system vs. manual reporting system. GSA estimates 
the likelihood of a contractor creating an automated reporting system 
increases with a contractor's sales revenue. In contrast, contractors 
with little to no sales revenue are unlikely to expend the effort 
needed to establish an automated reporting system. To account for this 
difference, GSA is using the below table. The below table shows by 
sales revenue category the estimated percentage of the likelihood of a 
contractor using a manual reporting system vs automated reporting 
system:

          Percentage of Contractors by Type of Reporting System
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                          Manual  system     Automated
         Sales revenue category                 (%)         system (%)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Category 1..............................             100               0
Category 2..............................             100               0
Category 3..............................              90              10
Category 4..............................              50              50
Category 5..............................              10              90
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    [cir] Estimated monthly reporting time (hours)--by reporting system 
and sales revenue category. GSA estimates that the monthly reporting 
time varies by type of reporting system (i.e., manual or automated) and 
by respective sales revenue category. The below table shows GSA's 
estimated monthly reporting times per sales revenue category and system 
type:

  Monthly Hours by Type of Reporting System and Sales Revenue Category
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                              Manual         Automated

calculations account for the aforementioned transition to TDR during 
this renewal period as well.

552.238-120, Economic Price Adjustment--Federal Supply Schedule 
Contracts

Year 1
Estimated # of responses per year: 600
Estimated burden hours per response: x 4.25
Total estimated annual burden hours: 2,550

Estimated cost per hour **: x $92.15
Total estimate annual cost burden: $234,972
Years 2 & 3
Estimated # of responses per year: 1800
Estimated burden hours per response: x 4.25
Total estimated annual burden hours: 7,650

Estimated cost per hour **: x $92.15
Total estimate annual cost burden: $704,916

Alternate I of GSAR Clause 552.238-81, Price Reductions

Year 1
Estimated # of responses per year: 25
Estimated burden hours per response: x 4.25
Total estimated annual burden hours: 106

Estimated cost per hour **: x $92.15
Total estimate annual cost burden: $9,790
Years 2 & 3
Estimated # of responses per year: 50
Estimated burden hours per response: x 4.25
Total estimated annual burden hours: 213

Estimated cost per hour **: x $92.15
Total estimate annual cost burden: $19,581

552.238-83, Examination of Records by GSA

Year 1 Through Year 3
Estimated # of respondents per year: 5
Estimated burden hours per respondent: x 455
Total estimated annual burden hours: 2,275

Estimated cost per hour **: x $92.15
Total estimated annual cost burden: $209,632

    552.238-85, Contractor's Billing Responsibilities, is 0 burden 
hours/$0.00 burden cost for Years 1 through 3. The reason for zero 
burden being associated with this clause is because the record keeping 
requirement contained in this clause does not add any additional burden 
to what is already captured by Alternate I of GSAR clause 552.238-80, 
which is covered by this information collection.
    ** The estimated cost per hour is based on the task being 
accomplished by personnel equivalent to a GS-14, Step 5. A GSA-14, Step 
5 employee hourly rate for 2025 is $92.15.
