    Title: Contract Modifications, NASA FAR Supplement Part 18-43.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is 
requesting renewal of an existing collection to ensure engineering 
changes are made quickly and in a cost-effective manner. Proposals 
supporting such change orders contain detailed information which 
enables the Government to obtain the best goods and services for the 
best prices.
    NASA procurement and technical personnel use the information to 
manage the contract. Change proposals are submitted whenever a change 
order is used which increases the contractor's cost to perform the 
contract. Without change orders, NASA would often be unable to obtain 
the best goods and services at the best prices.

II. Method of Collection

    NASA collects this information electronically where feasible, but 
information may also be collected by mail or fax.

III. Data

IV. Request for Comments

    Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
NASA, including whether the information collected has practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of NASA's estimate of the burden (including 
hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; (3) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including automated collection techniques 
or the use of other forms of information technology.
