• Respond in writing to written
reports from the Government that
identify deficiencies in the estimating
system.
DoD contracting officers use this
information to determine if the
contractor has an adequate system for
generating cost estimates, which
forecasts costs based on appropriate
source information available at the time,
and has the ability to monitor the
correction of significant deficiencies.
The need for information collection
decreases as contractor estimating
systems improve and gain contracting
officer approval.

ACTION: Notice and request for
comments regarding a proposed
extension of an approved information
collection requirement.
AGENCY:
In compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, DoD
announces the proposed extension of a
public information collection
requirement and seeks public comment
on the provisions thereof. DoD invites
comments on: whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of DoD, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
the accuracy of DoD’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed information
collection; ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and 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.
The Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) has approved this information
collection requirement for use under
Control Number 0704–0253 through
July 31, 2023. DoD proposes that OMB

Title and OMB Number:
Subcontracting Policies and
Procedures—DoD FAR Supplement Part
244; OMB Control Number 0704–0253.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit and not-for-profit institutions.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.
Frequency: On occasion.
Number of Respondents: 22.
Responses per Respondent: 2.
Annual Responses: 44.
Average Burden per Response: 8
hours.
Annual Burden Hours: 372.
Needs and Uses: Administrative
contracting officers use this information
in making decisions to approve or
disapprove a contractor’s purchase
system. The disapproval of a
contractor’s purchasing system would
necessitate Government consent to
individual subcontracts and possibly
prompt a financial withhold or other
Government rights and remedies.
DFARS 244.305, Granting, Withholding,
or Withdrawing Approval, provides
policy guidance for administrative
contracting officers to determine the
acceptability of the contractor’s
purchasing system and approve or
disapprove the system, at the
completion of the in-plant portion of a
contractor purchasing system review,
and to pursue correction of any
deficiencies with the contractor. DFARS
clause 252.244–7001, Contractor
Purchasing System Administration,
requires the contractor to respond
within 30 days to a written initial
determination from the contracting
officer that identifies significant
deficiencies in the contractor’s
purchasing system. The contracting
officer will evaluate the contractor’s
PO 00000

response to this initial determination
and notify the contractor in writing of
any remaining significant deficiencies,
the adequacy of any proposed or
completed corrective action, and system
disapproval if the contracting officer
determines that one or more significant
deficiencies remain. If the contractor
receives the contracting officer’s final
determination of significant
deficiencies, the contractor has 45 days
to either correct the significant
deficiencies or submit an acceptable
corrective action plan.

sensitive and inappropriate for release
to the public. The clause requires the
contractor to obtain approval of the
contracting officer before release of any
unclassified contract-related
information outside the contractor’s
organization, unless the information is
already in the public domain. In
requesting this approval, the contractor
must identify the specific information to
be released, the medium to be used, and
the purpose for the release. Upon
receipt of a contractor’s request, the
Government reviews the information
provided by the contractor to determine
if it is sensitive or otherwise
inappropriate for release for the stated
