SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In carrying out its statutory mandate in 15 
U.S.C. 637(m) to provide oversight of certification related to the 
Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contract Program (WOSB Program), the 
U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is currently approved to 
collect information from WOSB Program applicants or participants 
through its certification and information collection platform, 
Certify.SBA.gov (Certify). SBA is revising this information collection 
by updating its hourly burden analysis to reflect the new certification 
requirements, including the new monthly reporting requirement for 
third-party certifiers, and adding instructions for firms that wish to 
document their eligibility using their CVE certification.
    Solicitation of Public Comments: SBA is requesting comments on (a) 
Whether the collection of information is necessary for the agency to 
properly perform its functions; (b) whether the burden estimates are 
accurate; (c) whether there are ways to minimize the burden, including 
through the use of automated techniques or other forms of information 
technology; and (d) whether there are ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information.
