Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 186 / Wednesday, September 25, 2013 / Notices
reimbursed upon settlement of the
terminated contract.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Based on data retrieved from the
Federal Procurement Data System
(FPDS) there was an estimated average
of 10,152 contracts to 5,949 unique
vendors that would have been subject to
the termination settlement proposal
forms (Standard Forms 1435 through
1440). This data was based on the
estimate average number of terminations
for convenience (complete or partial) for
Fiscal Years, 2010, 2011, and 2012. In
consultation with subject matter
experts, it was determined that the
5,949 unique vendors was a sufficient
baseline for estimating the number of
respondents. It is therefore estimated
that approximately 5,949 respondents
would need to comply with this
information collection. The estimated
number of responses per respondent for
this information collection is based on
an estimated average number of
respondents divided by the estimated
average number of unique vendors (1.7).
Additionally, in discussion with subject
matter experts, it was estimated that the
previously approved burden hours per
response of 2.4 hours is still relevant for
this information collection. No public
comments were received in prior years
that have challenged the validity of the
Government’s estimate. The revisions to
this information collection reflect a
significant upward adjustment from
what was published in the Federal
Register at 75 FR 63831 on October 18,
2010. This increase is based on a
revision to the estimated number of
respondents that would be subject to
this information collection.
Respondents: 5,949.
Responses Per Respondent: 1.7.
Total Responses: 10,113.
Hours Per Response: 2.4.
Total Burden Hours: 24,271.

C. Public Comments
Public comments are particularly
invited on: Whether this collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of functions of the FAR,
and whether it will have practical
utility; whether our estimate of the
public burden of this collection of
information is accurate, and based on
valid assumptions and methodology;
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and ways in which we can
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, through the use of appropriate
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
Assistant Secretary of the Army
for Financial Management &
Comptroller, DoD.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
In compliance with Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Assistant
Secretary of the Army for Financial
Management & Comptroller announces a
proposed public information collection
and seeks public comment on the
provisions thereof. Comments are
invited on: (a) whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed information collection; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the information collection on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
DATES: Consideration will be given to all
comments received by November 25,
2013.
SUMMARY:
You may submit comments,
identified by docket number and title,
by any of the following methods:
• Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://
www.regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments.
• Mail: Federal Docket Management

Instructions: All submissions received
must include the agency name, docket
number and title for this Federal
Register document. The general policy
for comments and other submissions
from members of the public is to make
these submissions available for public
viewing on the Internet at https://
www.regulations.gov as they are
received without change, including any
personal identifiers or contact
information.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
request more information on this
proposed information collection or to
obtain a copy of the proposal and
associated collection instruments,
please write to the ASA (FM&C), Attn:
Mr. Roger A. Pillar, 200 Stovall St., Rm:
1S49, Alexandria, VA 22314, or call Mr.
Roger A. Pillar, GFEBS Functional
Director at 703–545–8855.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: Supplier Self-Services (SUS);
OMB Control Number 0702–TBD.
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirement via SUS is
necessary to reduce the amount and
complexity of required input by vendors
that manually enter invoice data into
Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) (not
those utilizing Electronic Data
Interchange (EDI). By pre-populating
fields with accurate and up-to-date
contract information, vendors are
required to input significantly less data.
Additionally, SUS simultaneously
performs a front-end validation of
submitted data, thus ensuring less
manual intervention and fewer interest
penalties incurred by the government.
Affected Public: Businesses (Federal
Vendors).
Annual Burden Hours: 640.
Number of Respondents: 533.
Responses per Respondent: 12.
Average Burden per Response: 6
minutes.
Frequency: On occasion.
SUS leverages a DoD portal developed
by WAWF known as ‘‘OneStop’’ that
facilitates WAWF’s interaction with
ERPs. Respondents are vendors that
continue to utilize WAWF as the
mandated single point of entry and for
viewing historical records, but are
routed seamlessly to the SUS module
for invoice data entry referencing the
ERP contract data.
