AGENCY: Defense Acquisition Regulations System, Department of Defense

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Defense Acquisition Regulations System has submitted to 
OMB for clearance, the following proposed revision and extension of a 
collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act.

DATES: Consideration will be given to all comments received by June 29, 
2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title and OMB Number: Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation 
Supplement (DFARS) Part 211, Describing Agency Needs, and Related 
Clause at 252.211; OMB Control Number 0704-0398.
    Type of Request: Revision and extension.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit and not-for-profit 
institutions.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
    Number of Respondents: 256.
    Responses per Respondent: About 254.
    Annual Responses: 65,000.
    Average Burden per Response: .25 hours, approximately.
    Annual Burden Hours: 16,250.
    Reporting Frequency: On occasion.
    Needs and Uses: This information collection pertains to DFARS 
clause 252.211-7007, Reporting of Government-Furnished Property, which 
requires contractors to report to the Item Unique Identification (IUID) 
Registry all Government-furnished property (GFP), as well as contractor 
receipt of non-serially managed items. ``Serially managed item'' means 
an item designated by DoD to be uniquely tracked, controlled, or 
managed in maintenance, repair, and/or supply systems by means of its 
serial number. The clause provides a list of specific data elements 
contractors are to report to the IUID registry, as well as procedures 
for updating the registry. DoD needs this information to strengthen the 
accountability and end-to-end traceability of GFP within DoD. Through 
electronic notification of physical receipt, DoD is made aware that GFP 
has arrived at the contractor's facility. The DoD logistics community 
uses the information as a data source of available DoD equipment. In 
addition, the DoD organization responsible for contract administration 
uses the data to test the adequacy of the contractor's property 
management system.
    Comments and recommendations on the proposed information collection 
should be sent to Ms. Jasmeet Seehra, DoD Desk Officer, at 
[email protected]. Please identify the proposed information 
collection by DoD Desk Officer and the Docket ID number and title of 
the information collection.
    You may also submit comments, identified by docket number and 
title, by the following method: Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
    DoD Clearance Officer: Ms. Angela James. Requests for copies of the 
information collection proposal should be sent to Ms. James at [email protected].
