SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, DoD

requirement and seeks public comment on the provisions thereof. DoD
invites comments on: whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of DoD, including
whether the information will have practical utility; the accuracy of
the estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; ways
to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the information
collection on respondents, including the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information technology. The Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) has approved this information collection
for use through July 31, 2023. DoD proposes that OMB extend its
approval for use for three additional years beyond the current
expiration date.

Needs and Uses: DFARS 205.470 prescribes the use of the clause at
DFARS 252.205-7000, Provision of Information to Cooperative Agreement
Holders, in solicitations and contracts, including solicitations and
contracts using Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 12 procedures
for the acquisition of commercial products and commercial services,
which are expected to exceed $1.5 million. This clause implements 10
U.S.C. 4957 by requiring contractors to provide cooperative agreement
holders, upon request, with a list of the contractor's employees or
offices responsible for entering into subcontracts under DoD contracts.
The Contractor need not provide the listing to a particular cooperative
agreement holder more frequently than once a year. Upon receipt of a
contractor's list, the cooperative agreement holder utilizes the
information to identify and pursue contracting opportunities with DoD
and expand the number of businesses capable of participating in
Government contracts.
