Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 172 / Wednesday, September 7, 2022 / Notices
Number of Respondents: 34,842.
Annual Responses: 122,024.
Annual Burden Hours: 2,075,685
(includes 39,075 reporting hours and
2,036,610 recordkeeping hours).
Needs and Uses: The information
collections under OMB Control Number
0704–0441 pertain to all information
that offerors or contractors must submit
related to DFARS contract quality
assurance programs.
a. 252.246–7003, Notification of
Potential Safety Issues. Contracting
officers require timely notification of
potential safety defects so that (1)
systems and equipment likely affected
by the situation can be readily
identified, and (2) appropriate
engineering investigation and follow-on
actions can be taken to establish and
mitigate risk.
b. 252.246–7005, Notice of Warranty
Tracking of Serialized Items. The
information provided by offerors under
this solicitation provision alerts
contracting officers in those cases where
the offeror is proposing to provide a
warranty for an individual contract line
item for which DoD has not specified a
warranty in the solicitation. The
warranty notice will permit the
Government to recognize and utilize any
warranty after contract award.
c. 252.246–7006, Warranty Tracking
of Serialized Items. The information
provided by contractors allows DoD to
track warranties for item unique
identification (IUID) required items in
the IUID registry to obtain maximum
utility of warranties provided on
contracted items. The identification and
enforcement of warranties is essential to
the effectiveness and efficiency of DoD’s
material readiness. Providing visibility
and accountability of warranty data
associated with acquired goods, from
the identification of the requirement to
the expiration date of the warranted
item, significantly enhances DoD’s
ability to take full advantage of
warranties, resulting in—
(1) Reduced costs;
(2) Ability to recognize benefits
included at no additional cost;
(3) Ability to compare performance
against Government-specified
warranties; and
(4) Identification of sufficient
durations for warranties for specific
goods.
d. 252.246–7008, Sources of
Electronic Parts. The contracting officer
uses the information to ensure that the
contractor performs the traceability of
parts, additional inspection, testing, and
authentication required when an
electronic part is not obtained from a
trusted supplier. The Government may

and related provisions and clauses;
OMB Control Number 0704–0369.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit and not-for-profit institutions.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.
Reporting Frequency: On occasion.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Number of Respondents: 75,250.

approximately.
Annual Response Burden Hours:

Annual Recordkeeping Burden Hours:
90,600.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 995,174.
Needs and Uses: DFARS subparts
227.71 and 227.72 prescribe the use of
solicitation provisions and contract
clauses containing information
collection requirements that are
associated with rights in technical data
and computer software. DoD needs this
information to implement 10 U.S.C.
2320, Rights in technical data, and 10
U.S.C. 2321, Validation of proprietary
data restrictions. DoD uses the
information to recognize and protect
contractor rights in technical data and
computer software that are associated
with privately funded development; and
to ensure that technical data delivered
under a contract are complete and
accurate and satisfy contract
requirements.
DoD uses the following DFARS
provisions and clauses in solicitations
and contracts to require offerors and
contractors to identify and mark data or
software requiring protection from
unauthorized use, release, or disclosure
in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2320:
252.227–7013, Rights in Technical
Data—Noncommercial Items.
252.227–7014, Rights in
Noncommercial Computer Software and
Noncommercial Computer Software
Documentation.

252.227–7017, Identification and
Assertion of Use, Release, or Disclosure
Restrictions.
252.227–7018, Rights in
Noncommercial Technical Data and
Computer Software—Small Business
Innovation Research (SBIR) Program.
In accordance with 10 U.S.C.
2320(a)(2)(D), DoD may disclose limited
rights data to persons outside the
Government, or allow those persons to
use data with use, release, or disclosure
restrictions, if the recipient agrees not to
further release, disclose, or use the data.
Therefore, the clause at DFARS
252.227–7013, Rights in Technical
Data—Noncommercial Items, requires
the contractor to identify and mark data
or software that it provides with limited
rights.
In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2321(b),
contractors and subcontractors at any
tier must be prepared to furnish written
justification for any asserted restriction
on the Government’s rights to use or
release data. The following DFARS
clauses require contractors and
subcontractors to maintain adequate
records and procedures to justify any
asserted restrictions:
252.227–7019, Validation of Asserted
Restrictions—Computer Software.
252.227–7037, Validation of
Restrictive Markings on Technical Data.
In accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2320,
DoD must protect the rights of
contractors that have developed items,
components, or processes exclusively at
private expense. Therefore, the clause at
DFARS 252.227–7025, Limitations on
the Use or Disclosure of GovernmentFurnished Information Marked with
Restrictive Legends, requires a
contractor or subcontractor to submit a
use and nondisclosure agreement when
it obtains data from the Government to
which the Government has less than
unlimited rights. In addition, DFARS
227.7103–7, Use and nondisclosure
agreement, requires intended recipients
of technical data or computer software
delivered to the Government with
restrictions on use, modification,
reproduction, release, performance,
display, or disclosure, to sign the use
and nondisclosure agreement at
227.7103–7(c) prior to release or
disclosure of the data, unless the
recipient is a Government contractor
that requires access to a third party’s
data or software for the performance of
a Government contract that contains the
clause at 252.227–7025, Limitations on
Use or Disclosure of GovernmentFurnished Information Marked with
Restrictive Legends. According to 10
U.S.C. 2320(a)(2)(D), DoD may disclose
limited rights data to persons outside
the Government, or allow those persons
