Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 120 / Friday, June 23, 2023 / Notices
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: 352.
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
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.

improved financing opportunities that
will provide benefit to both industry
(prime contractor and subcontractor
level) and the taxpayer. DFARS
252.232–7007 is prescribed for use in
solicitations and resultant
incrementally-funded fixed-price
contracts. Paragraph (c) of the clause
requires a written notification from the
contractor that: (1) states the estimated
date when the total amount payable by
the Government, including any cost for
termination for convenience, will
approximate 85 percent of the total
amount then allotted to the contract for
performance of the applicable items; (2)
states an estimate of additional funding,
if any, needed to continue performance
of applicable line items up to the next
scheduled date for allotment of funds or
to a mutually agreed upon substitute
date; and (3) advises the contracting
officer of the estimated amount of
additional funds that will be required
for the timely performance of the items
funded pursuant to the clause, for a
subsequent period as may be specified
in the allotment schedule or otherwise
agreed to by the parties to the contract.
• DFARS subpart 232.10,
Performance-Based Payments, 252.232–
7012, Performance Based Payments—
Whole Contract Basis, and 252.232–
7013, Performance Based Payments—
Deliverable-Item Basis. Contracting
officers use the information provided by
contractors to create a cash-flow model
for use in evaluating alternative
financing arrangements. The analysis
tool calculates improved financing
opportunities that will provide benefit
to both industry (prime contractor and
subcontractor level) and the taxpayer.
DFARS subpart 232.10 requires the
contracting officer, when considering
performance-based payments, to obtain
from the contractor a proposed
performance-based payments schedule
which includes all performance-based
payments events, completion criteria
and event values along with the
expected expenditure profile.
DFARS 252.232–7012 requires
contractors to report the negotiated
value of all previously completed
performance-based payments;
negotiated value of current
performance-based payment events;
cumulative negotiated value of
performance-based payment events
completed to date; total costs incurred
to date; cumulative amount of payments
previously requested; and the payment

Needs and Uses:
DFARS 252.232-7007, Limitation of Government's Obligation.
The data submitted by contractors enables contracting officers to
calculate improved financing opportunities that will provide benefit to
both industry (prime contractor and subcontractor level) and the
taxpayer. DFARS 252.232-7007 is prescribed for use in solicitations and
resultant incrementally-funded fixed-price contracts. Paragraph (c) of
the clause requires a written notification from the contractor that:
(1) states the estimated date when the total amount payable by the
Government, including any cost for termination for convenience, will
approximate 85 percent of the total amount then allotted to the
contract for performance of the applicable items; (2) states an
estimate of additional funding, if any, needed to continue performance
of applicable line items up to the next scheduled date for allotment of
funds or to a mutually agreed upon substitute date; and (3) advises the
contracting officer of the estimated amount of additional funds that
will be required for the timely performance of the items funded
pursuant to the clause, for a subsequent period as may be specified in
the allotment schedule or otherwise agreed to by the parties to the
contract.
DFARS subpart 232.10, Performance-Based Payments, 252.232-
7012, Performance Based Payments--Whole Contract Basis, and 252.232-

cumulative negotiated value of performance-based payment events
completed to date; total costs incurred to date; cumulative amount of

payment events; cumulative negotiated value of
