SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is 
requesting renewal of an existing collection to ensure engineering 
changes are made quickly and in a cost-effective manner. Proposals 
supporting such change orders contain detailed information which 
enables the Government to obtain the best goods and services for the 
best prices.
    NASA procurement and technical personnel use the information to 
manage the contract. Change proposals are submitted whenever a change 
order is used which increases the contractor's

cost to perform the contract. Without change orders, NASA would often 
be unable to obtain the best goods and services at the best prices.

information may also be collected by mail or fax.
