    Abstract: The HHS IDEA Lab, in the Immediate Office of the 
Secretary, is requesting an approval by Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) on a new information collection, which is critical to the success 
of the HHS EIR program, and identifies private sector entrepreneurs 
with unique skill sets not available in government to join HHS for a 
year to work on critical initiatives. The information collection for 
the HHS EIR custom form management system involves obtaining candidate 
resumes and responses to short essay questions specifically designed to 
determine whether entrepreneurs have the knowledge, skills and 
abilities to successfully complete HHS EIR projects in the government 
context and mentor existing government staff to acquire new, 
entrepreneurial skills.
    Likely Respondents: The candidate pools, targeted for the HHS EIR 
program are serial private sector entrepreneurs with no prior federal 
government experience.
