SUMMARY:
A. Purpose
FAR 22.1103 requires that all
professional employees are
compensated fairly and properly.
Accordingly, FAR 52.222–46,
Evaluation of Compensation for
Professional Employees, is required to
be inserted in solicitations for
negotiated service contracts when the
contract amount is expected to exceed
$650,000 and the service to be provided
will require meaningful numbers of
professional employees. The purpose of
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
the provision at FAR 52.222–46 is to
require offerors to submit for evaluation
a total compensation plan setting forth
proposed salaries and fringe benefits for
professional employees working on the
contract. Plans indicating unrealistically
low professional employees’
compensation may be assessed
adversely as one of the factors
considered in making a contract award.
B. Annual Reporting and
Recordkeeping Burden
Respondents: 12,921.
Responses per Respondent: 3.
Total Responses: 38,763.
Hours per Response: 1.333333.
Total Burden Hours: 51,684.
C. Public Comments
Public comments are particularly
invited on: Whether this collection of
information is necessary; 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

The clause at FAR 52.215–14,
Integrity of Unit Prices, requires offerors
and contractors under Federal contracts
that are to be awarded without adequate
price competition to identify in their
proposals those supplies which they
will not manufacture or to which they
will not contribute significant value.
The policies included in the FAR are
required by 41 U.S.C. 3503 (a)(1)(A)(for
the civilian agencies) and 10.U.S.C
2306a(b)(1)(A)(i)(for DOD and NASA).
The rule contains no reporting
requirements on contracts below the
simplified acquisition threshold,
construction and architect-engineering
services, utility services, service
contracts where supplies are not
required, commercial items, and
contracts for petroleum products.
Public comments are particularly
invited on: Whether this collection of
information is necessary; 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

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) is funding three 5-year
projects collectively entitled ‘‘Improving
the Impact of Laboratory Practice
Guidelines: A New Paradigm for
Metrics’’. An ‘‘LPG’’ is defined as
written recommendations for voluntary,
standardized approaches for medical
laboratory testing that takes into account
processes for test selection, sample
procurement and processing, analytical
methods, and results reporting for
effective diagnosis and management of
disease and health conditions. LPGs
may be disseminated to, and used by,
laboratorians and clinicians to assist
with test selection and test result
interpretation. The overall purpose of
these cooperative agreements is to
increase the effectiveness of LPGs by
defining measures and collecting
information to inform better LPG
creation, revision, dissemination,
promotion, uptake, and impact on
clinical testing and public health. The
project will explore how these processes
and their impediments and facilitators
differ among various intended users of
LPGs. Through this demonstration
project, CDC seeks to understand how to
customize LPG creation and promotion
to better serve these intended users of
LPGs. An important goal is to help
organizations that sponsor the
development of LPGs create a
sustainable approach for continuous
quality improvement to evaluate and
improve an LPG’s impact through better
collection of information.
The CDC selected three organizations
that currently create and disseminate
LPGs to support activities under a
cooperative agreement funding
mechanism to improve the impact of
their LPGs. The American Society for
Microbiology (ASM), the Clinical and
Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI),
and the College of American
Pathologists (CAP), will each use their
LPGs as models to better understand
how to improve uptake and impact of
these and future LPGs. Only the CLSI
submission will be described in this
notice.
Specifically, the CLSI project will
address two LPGs that are important to
clinical testing and have a high public
health impact: POCT12, Point-of-Care
Blood Glucose Testing in Acute and
Chronic Care Facilities and POCT13,
Glucose Monitoring in Settings without
Laboratory Support. These LPGs
provide guidance and recommendations
for personnel monitoring patient
glucose levels at sites that have access
to a hospital laboratory and at locations,
such as physician offices or nursing
