Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 73 / Monday, April 16, 2018 / Notices
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the
previously approved collection of
information summarized below.
The Commission is required under
Section 342 of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street and Reform Act to develop
standards and processes for ensuring the
fair inclusion of women-owned and
minority-owned businesses in all of the
Commission’s business activities. To
help implement this requirement, the
Office of Minority and Women
Inclusion (OMWI) developed and
maintains an electronic Supplier
Diversity Business Management System
(the System) to collect up-to-date
business information and capabilities
statements from diverse suppliers
interested in doing business with the
Commission. This information allows
the Commission to update and more
effectively manage its current internal
repository. It also allows the
Commission to measure the
effectiveness of its technical assistance
and outreach efforts, and target areas
where additional program efforts are
necessary.
The Commission invites comment on
the System. Information is collected in
the System via web-based, e-filed,
dynamic form-based technology. The
company point of contact completes a
profile consisting of basic contact data
and information on the capabilities of
the business. The profile includes a
series of questions, some of which are
based on the data that the individual
enters. Drop-down lists are included
where appropriate to increase ease of
use.
The information collection is
voluntary. There are no costs associated
with this collection. The System allows
suppliers to self-register via a secure
web portal that is accessible through a
hyperlink on the Commission’s public
website. The form also is accessible via
a web-link generated and emailed to the
suppliers by the System.
Estimated number of annual responses =
300
Estimated annual reporting burden =
150 hours (30 minutes per
submission)
Since the last approval of this
information collection, we have
adjusted the estimated number of
respondents from 500 to 300
respondents per year, based on the
actual response rate for the past two
years and anticipated increase in that
response rate with the posting of a link
to the System on our web page to allow

self-registration. This reduction in the
number of respondents has resulted in
a 100-hour reduction in the total burden
estimate.
On February 2, 2018, the Commission
published a notice in the Federal
Register (83 FR 4936) of its intention to
request extension of this currently
approved collection of information, and
allowed the public 60 days to submit
comments. The Commission received no
comments.
Written comments continued to be
invited on: (a) Whether this collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden imposed by the collection
of information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.

collection at the following website,
