Cutting Redundancy
The information collection burden has decreased from 119,214 hours to 2,229 hours due to a new set of assumptions made based on input from quality assurance subject matter experts. They confirmed observations that contractors do not routinely submit records under the inspection clauses as previously assumed. This information is collected infrequently on an as needed basis. Records referred to under the inspection clauses are part of a contractor’s normal business operations and standard industry practice. It is projected that only a small number of contractors, approximately 10%, will be asked to provide records to the Government. Additionally, for all the inspection clauses, it is estimated the amount of time to respond will be one-hour regardless of the contract type. For clause 52.246-15, subject matter experts estimate the CoC is rarely used. Estimates on its collection were greatly reduced.
