Need for and Use of the Information Collection khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES The Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992 (Safety and Soundness Act), as amended by the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008, Division A of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, requires FHFA to ensure that the operations and activities of each regulated entity foster liquid, efficient, competitive, and resilient national housing finance markets.1 Recognizing the significant effects that the regulated entities’ potential use of fintech products and innovations could have on the mortgage market and market participants, FHFA has an interest in learning about new and emerging technologies which may have applications in the mortgage space. To obtain information from the public, FHFA plans to conduct a series of competitions called ‘‘Tech Sprints.’’ The Tech Sprints will pose ‘‘problem statements’’ associated with fintech in the housing finance market and solicit innovative solutions from individuals and entities participating in the Tech Sprint. The Tech Sprint solutions will support the Agency in developing strategies for the regulated entities to advance housing finance fintech in a safe and sound, responsible, and equitable manner.2 For each Tech Sprint, FHFA intends to collect information from potential participants through a solicitation for expression of interest to participate in the Tech Sprint, as well as information collected during the Tech Sprint through the solutions to the challenge statements presented. FHFA expects participation from market participants in the housing finance industry and other industries, including without limitation technology companies, mortgage companies, academics, industry groups, and other members of the public. B. Burden Estimate FHFA estimates that two Tech Sprints will be conducted each year over the next three years. The total annualized hour burden imposed upon respondents by this information collection will be 5,000 hours, based on the following calculations: 1. Applications FHFA estimates that the average number of individuals applying to participate in each Tech Sprint over the next three years will be 500, with one response per applicant. The estimated time to complete each application is one hour. Therefore, the estimate for the total annual hour burden for all applications is 1,000 hours (500 applications × 1 hour per application × 2 Tech Sprints per year = 1,000 hours). 2. Tech Sprint Participants FHFA estimates that each Tech Sprint will have an average of 50 participants. Each participant will spend an average of 40 hours participating in the Tech Sprint. Therefore, the estimate for the total annual hour burden for all Tech Sprint participants is 4,000 hours (50 participants × 40 hours per participant × 2 Tech Sprints per year = 4,000 hours). C. Public Comments Request Written comments are requested on: (1) whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of FHFA functions, including whether the information has practical utility; (2) the accuracy of FHFA’s estimates of the burdens of the collection of information; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on members and project sponsors, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: A. Purpose The General Services Administration has various mission responsibilities related to the acquisition, management, and disposal of real and personal property. These mission responsibilities include developing requirements, solicitation of lease offers and the award of real property lease contracts. Individual solicitations and resulting contracts may impose unique information collection/reporting requirements on contractors, not required by regulation, but necessary to (1) evaluate whether the physical attributes of offered properties meet the Government’s requirements and (2) evaluate the owner/offeror’s price proposal. The approval requested includes four versions of the GSA Form 1364; GSA Forms 1364, 1364A, 1364A– E:\FR\FM\02NON1.SGM 02NON1 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 211 / Wednesday, November 2, 2022 / Notices 1, and 1364WH. These forms are used to obtain information for offer evaluation and lease award purposes regarding property being offered for lease to house Federal agencies. This includes financial aspects of offers for analysis and negotiation, such as real estate taxes, adjustments for vacant space, and offeror construction overhead fees. A total of seven lease contract models have been developed to meet the needs of the national leased portfolio. Three of these lease models require offerors to complete a GSA Form 1364 and two require a GSA Form 1217. The GSA Form 1364 versions require the submission of information specifically aligned with certain leasing models and avoids mandating submission of information that is not required for use in evaluation and award under each model. The GSA Form 1217 requires the submission of information specific to the services and utilities of a building in support of the pricing detailed under GSA Form 1364. The forms relate to individual lease procurements and no duplication exists. The Global Lease model uses the GSA Form 1364. The 1364 captures all rental components, including the pricing for the initial tenant improvements. The global nature of the 1364 provides flexibility in capturing tenant improvement pricing based on either allowance or turnkey pricing, as required by the solicitation. The Simplified Lease Model uses the GSA Forms 1364A and 1364A–1. This model obtains a firm, fixed price for rent, which includes the cost of tenant improvement construction. Therefore, leases using the Simplified model do not include post-award tenant improvement cost information on the form. The 1364A includes rental rate components and cost data that becomes part of the lease contract and that is necessary to satisfy GSA pricing policy requirements. The 1364A–1 is a checklist that addresses technical requirements as referenced in the Request for Lease Proposals. The 1364A–1 is separate from the proposal itself and is maintained in the lease file; it does not become an exhibit to the lease. The 1364A–1 may contain proprietary offeror information that cannot be released under the Freedom of Information Act. The Warehouse Lease Model uses GSA Form 1364WH. This model is specifically designed to accommodate the special characteristics of warehouse space and is optimized for space whose predominant use is for storage, distribution, or manufacturing. The VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:38 Nov 01, 2022 Jkt 259001 1364WH captures building characteristics unique to warehouse facilities and allows for evaluation of offers based on either area or volume calculations. The Global and Warehouse Lease Models use the GSA Form 1217. GSA Form 1217 captures the estimated annual cost of services and utilities and the estimated costs of ownership, exclusive of capital charges. These costs are listed for both the entire building and the area proposed for lease to the Government, broken down into specific categories. B. Annual Reporting Burden Respondents: 505. Responses per Respondent: 3.36 (weighted average). Total Responses: 1,732. Hours per Response: 4.11 (weighted average). Total Burden Hours: 7,150. C.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    The General Services Administration has various mission 
responsibilities related to the acquisition, management, and disposal 
of real and personal property. These mission responsibilities include 
developing requirements, solicitation of lease offers and the award of 
real property lease contracts. Individual solicitations and resulting 
contracts may impose unique information collection/reporting 
requirements on contractors, not required by regulation, but necessary 
to (1) evaluate whether the physical attributes of offered properties 
meet the Government's requirements and (2) evaluate the owner/offeror's 
price proposal. The approval requested includes four versions of the 
GSA Form 1364; GSA Forms 1364, 1364A, 1364A-

[[Page 66185]]

1, and 1364WH. These forms are used to obtain information for offer 
evaluation and lease award purposes regarding property being offered 
for lease to house Federal agencies. This includes financial aspects of 
offers for analysis and negotiation, such as real estate taxes, 
adjustments for vacant space, and offeror construction overhead fees.
    A total of seven lease contract models have been developed to meet 
the needs of the national leased portfolio. Three of these lease models 
require offerors to complete a GSA Form 1364 and two require a GSA Form 
1217. The GSA Form 1364 versions require the submission of information 
specifically aligned with certain leasing models and avoids mandating 
submission of information that is not required for use in evaluation 
and award under each model. The GSA Form 1217 requires the submission 
of information specific to the services and utilities of a building in 
support of the pricing detailed under GSA Form 1364. The forms relate 
to individual lease procurements and no duplication exists.
    The Global Lease model uses the GSA Form 1364. The 1364 captures 
all rental components, including the pricing for the initial tenant 
improvements. The global nature of the 1364 provides flexibility in 
capturing tenant improvement pricing based on either allowance or 
turnkey pricing, as required by the solicitation.
    The Simplified Lease Model uses the GSA Forms 1364A and 1364A-1. 
This model obtains a firm, fixed price for rent, which includes the 
cost of tenant improvement construction. Therefore, leases using the 
Simplified model do not include post-award tenant improvement cost 
information on the form. The 1364A includes rental rate components and 
cost data that becomes part of the lease contract and that is necessary 
to satisfy GSA pricing policy requirements.
    The 1364A-1 is a checklist that addresses technical requirements as 
referenced in the Request for Lease Proposals. The 1364A-1 is separate 
from the proposal itself and is maintained in the lease file; it does 
not become an exhibit to the lease. The 1364A-1 may contain proprietary 
offeror information that cannot be released under the Freedom of 
Information Act.
    The Warehouse Lease Model uses GSA Form 1364WH. This model is 
specifically designed to accommodate the special characteristics of 
warehouse space and is optimized for space whose predominant use is for 
storage, distribution, or manufacturing. The 1364WH captures building 
characteristics unique to warehouse facilities and allows for 
evaluation of offers based on either area or volume calculations.
    The Global and Warehouse Lease Models use the GSA Form 1217. GSA 
Form 1217 captures the estimated annual cost of services and utilities 
and the estimated costs of ownership, exclusive of capital charges. 
These costs are listed for both the entire building and the area 
proposed for lease to the Government, broken down into specific 
categories.
