SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

The information collected is used by PBS to evaluate a contractor's proposals, negotiate contract modifications, ( printed page 24304) evaluate a contractor's progress, and review payment requests during contract administration. The clause was previously GSAR 552.236-78 Shop Drawings, Coordination Drawings, and Schedules. The clause is simplified, including removing the requirement for a specific number of prints and copies of various submittals. This simplification will ease the compliance burden for the contractor during contract administration from the current state.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

Public reporting burden for GSAR 552.236-72 Submittals is estimated to average .25 hours per response, 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 annual reporting burden is estimated as follows:

Respondents: 890.

Responses per respondent: 5.

Total annual responses: 4,452.

Preparation hours per response:.25.

Total response burden hours: 1,113.

C. Public Comments

Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this collection of information is necessary and whether it will have practical utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of information is accurate and based on valid assumptions and methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected.

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 GSARegSec@gsa.gov.
