If it is in the best interest of the
Government, the contracting officer may authorize
cost-reimbursement contractors to obtain, for official purposes
only, interagency fleet management system (IFMS) vehicles and
related services. Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 51.205 and
the clause at FAR 52.251-2, Interagency Fleet Management System
(IFMS) Vehicles and Related Services are to be used in
solicitations and contracts when a cost reimbursement contract is
contemplated and the contracting officer may authorize the
contractor to use IFMS vehicles and related services.
The average wages per hour has
increased due to inflation, but the number of estimated respondents
per year is being decreased from 180 respondents to 132 respondents
based on analysis of FY 2015 data obtained from FPDS (whereas the
180 was based on FY 2012 FPDS data). As a result, the estimated
burden to the public has decreased, from 180 hours to 132 hours
(and from $8,085.60 to $7,460.64).
