Correction

    In the proposed rule FR Doc. 2011-9515, beginning on page 22070 in 
the

[[Page 24444]]

issue of April 20, 2011, make the following correction, in the 
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION, I. Background section. On page 22071 in the 
second column, add after the first full paragraph the following:
    ``Specifically, the proposed FAR section 4.1603 establishes service 
contractor reporting requirements based on type of contract and dollar 
amount as stated below:
     Contract types (e.g., cost-reimbursement, time-and-
materials, and labor-hour contracts) that already require contractors 
to track labor hours closely in order to invoice the Government will 
have lower dollar thresholds than fixed-price contracts, where this 
information has not been required historically. Contractors will be 
required to report on all cost-reimbursement, time-and-materials, and 
labor-hour contracts at or above the simplified acquisition threshold 
(SAT).
     Contractors will be required to report on new fixed-price 
contracts at or above the President's Fiscal Year 2011 Budget's 
proposed phase-in thresholds--
    [cir] $5 million in Fiscal Year 2011;
    [cir] $2.5 million in Fiscal Year 2012;
    [cir] $1 million in Fiscal Year 2013; and
    [cir] $500,000 from Fiscal Year 2014 onwards.
     For indefinite-delivery contracts, including but not 
limited to, indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts, 
Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contracts, Governmentwide Acquisition 
contracts (GWACs), and multi-agency contracts, reporting requirements 
will be determined based on the expected dollar amount and type of the 
orders issued under the contracts.
     Existing indefinite-delivery contracts will be bilaterally 
modified within six months of the effective date of the final rule if 
sufficient time and value remain on the base contract, which is defined 
as--
    1. A performance period that extends beyond October 1, 2011; and
    2. $5 million or more remaining to be obligated to the indefinite-
delivery contract.
    The threshold for existing indefinite-delivery contracts is 
consistent with the threshold for new fixed-price contracts.''

Acting Director, Office of Governmentwide Acquisition Policy.
