SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Components and the Office of the Chief Procurement Officer collect information, when necessary in administering public contracts for supplies and services. The information is used to determine compliance with contract terms placed in the contract as authorized by the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act (41 U.S.C. 251 et seq.) and the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (48 CFR chapter 1). Source selection documentation, Government estimate of contract price, contract modifications, Small Business Administration Certificate of Competency, Justification and approvals, determination and finding are examples of the kinds of post-award contract information that is collected are identified in pertinent sections of FAR 4.803, Contents of contract files. The complete FAR can be viewed on the Internet at https://www.arnet.gov. The information requested is used by the Government’s contracting officers and other acquisition personnel, including technical and legal staffs to determine contractor’s technical and management progress and controls of the firms holding public contracts to determine if the firms are making appropriate progress in work agreed to and are otherwise performing in the Government’s best interest. Payment of a firm’s invoices (or non-payment) and/ or corrective action may result from such reviews. If this information were not collected, the Government would jeopardize its operations by failing to exercise its responsibility for a major internal control in its contracts’ postaward phase. Many sources of the requested information use automated word processing systems, databases, spreadsheets, project management and other commercial software to facilitate preparation of material to be submitted, particularly in the submission of periodic (e.g., monthly) reports that describe contractor performance and progress of work . With Governmentwide implementation of eGovernment initiatives, it is commonplace within many of DHS’s Components for submissions to be electronic. According to Federal Procurement Data System-Next Generation (FPDS– NG) the number of Post-Contract award information has increased each year over the past two years in annual PO 00000 Frm 00057 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 respondent and burden hours. This increase is the result of a new estimate of awards, which contributes to the Post-Award information that is collected. This collection was previously approved by OMB on January 26, 2009. This collection will be submitted to OMB for review to request approval to extend the collection past the current expiration date of January 31, 2011. There are no proposed changes to the information being collected, instructions, frequency of the collection or the use of the information being collected.
