SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR); PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 48 CFR Chapter 1 provides general procedures on handling protests submitted by contractors to Federal agencies. This regulation provides detailed guidance for contractors doing business with acquisition offices within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to implement the FAR. FAR Part 33.103, Protests, Disputes, and Appeals prescribe policies and procedures for filing protests and for processing contract disputes and appeals. DHS will not be asking for anything outside of what is already required in the FAR. Should anything outside the FAR arise, DHS will submit a request for Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval. The information being collected will be obtained from contractors as part of their submissions whenever they file a bid protest with the Department’s Components. The information will be used by DHS officials in deciding how the protest should be resolved. Failure to collect this information would result in delayed resolution of agency protests. According to FPDS, the number of protest has increased each year over the past two years in annual respondent and burden hours. This increase in current protest activity is not the result of a deliberate program change, but from a new estimate of actions that are not controllable by the Federal government. Although, the number of protest has increased, there has not been any change in the information being collected. Analysis Agency: Office of Chief Procurement Officer, Acquisition Policy and Legislation Office, DHS. Title: Regulation on Agency Protests. OMB Number: 1600–0004. Frequency: Annually. Affected Public: Private Sector. Number of Respondents: 75. Estimated Time Per Respondent: 2 hours. Total Burden Hours: 150. Total Burden Cost (capital/startup): $0.00.
