SPACE ADMINISTRATION 

[OMB Control No. 9000–0001; Docket No. 

2023–0053; Sequence No. 10] 

Information Collection; Certain Federal 

Acquisition Regulation Part 28 

Requirements 

AGENCY: Department of Defense (DOD), 

General Services Administration (GSA), 

and National Aeronautics and Space 

Administration (NASA). 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, and 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) regulations, DoD, GSA, and 

NASA invite the public to comment on 

a revision concerning certain Federal 

Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 28 

requirements. DoD, GSA, and NASA 

invite comments on: whether the 

proposed collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the functions of Federal Government 

acquisitions, 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. 

OMB has approved this information 

collection for use through March 31, 

2024. DoD, GSA, and NASA propose 

that OMB extend its approval for use for 

three additional years beyond the 

current expiration date. 

DATES: DoD, GSA, and NASA will 

consider all comments received by 

November 20, 2023. 

ADDRESSES: DoD, GSA, and NASA 

invite interested persons to submit 

comments on this collection through 

https://www.regulations.gov and follow 

the instructions on the site. This website 

provides the ability to type short 

comments directly into the comment 

field or attach a file for lengthier 

comments. If there are difficulties 

submitting comments, contact the GSA 

Regulatory Secretariat Division at 202– 

501–4755 or GSARegSec@gsa.gov. 

Instructions: All items submitted 

must cite OMB Control No. 9000–0001, 

Certain Federal Acquisition Regulation 

Part 28 Requirements. Comments 

received generally will be posted 

without change to https://

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal and/or business confidential 

information provided. To confirm 

receipt of your comment(s), please 

check www.regulations.gov, 

approximately two-to-three days after

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. OMB Control Number, Title, and 

Any Associated Form(s) 

OMB Control No. 9000–0001, Certain 

Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 28 

Requirements, Standard Forms (SF) 24, 

25, 25–A, 25–B, 28, 34, 35, 273, 274, 

275, 1414, 1415, 1416, and 1418 

B. Need and Uses 

DoD, GSA, and NASA are combining 

OMB Control Nos. by FAR part. This 

consolidation is expected to improve 

industry’s ability to easily and 

efficiently identify burdens associated 

with a given FAR part. The review of 

the information collections by FAR part 

allows improved oversight to ensure 

there is no redundant or unaccounted 

for burden placed on industry. Lastly, 

combining information collections in a 

given FAR part is also expected to 

reduce the administrative burden 

associated with processing multiple 

information collections. 

This justification supports the 

extension of OMB Control No. 9000– 

0001 and combines it with the 

previously approved information 

collections under OMB Control No. 

9000–0045, with the new title ‘‘Certain 

Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 28 

Requirements’’. Upon approval of this 

consolidated information collection, 

OMB Control No. 9000–0045 will be 

discontinued. The burden requirements 

previously approved under the 

discontinued number will be covered 

under OMB Control No. 9000–0001. 

This clearance covers the information 

that offerors or contractors must submit 

to comply with the following FAR 

requirements: 

• FAR 52.228–1, Bid Guarantee. This 

provision (or clause) requires offerors or 

contractors to furnish a bid guarantee in 

the proper form and amount when a 

performance bond or a performance and 

payment bond is also required. (SF 24, 

Bid Bond; SF 34, Annual Bid Bond). 

• FAR 52.228–2, Additional Bond 

Security. This clause requires 

contractors to furnish additional bond 

security under certain circumstances. 

This clause is used both for construction 

and other than construction contracts. 

(SF 1414 Consent of Surety and SF 

1415, Consent of Surety and Increase of 

Penalty). 

• FAR 52.228–13, Alternative 

Payment Protections. This clause 

requires contractors to submit one of the 

payment protections listed in the clause 

by the contracting officer, in 

construction contracts greater than 

$35,000 but not exceeding $150,000. 

• FAR 52.228–14, Irrevocable Letter 

of Credit. This clause requires offerors 

or contractors to provide certain 

information when they intend to use an 

irrevocable letter of credit (ILC) in lieu 

of a required bid bond, or to secure 

other types of required bonds such as 

performance and payment bonds. This 

clause is required in solicitations and 

contracts when a bid guarantee, or 

performance bond, or performance and 

payment bonds are required. 

• FAR 52.228–15, Performance and 

Payment Bonds—Construction. This 

clause requires contractors to provide 

performance and payment bonds in 

construction contracts exceeding 

$150,000 (SF 25, Performance Bond; SF 

25–A, Payment Bond; SF 25–B, 

Continuation Sheet (for SF’s 24, 25, and 

25–A); SF 273, Reinsurance Agreement 

for a Bonds Statute Performance Bond; 

SF 274, Reinsurance Agreement for a 

Bonds Statute Payment Bond). 

• FAR 52.228–16, Performance and 

Payment Bonds—Other Than 

Construction. This clause requires 

contractors to furnish performance and 

payment bonds for other than 

construction contracts exceeding the 

simplified acquisition threshold only in 

certain circumstances. (SF 35, Annual 

Performance Bond; SF 275, Reinsurance 

Agreement in Favor of the United 

States; SF 1416, Payment Bond for 

Other Than Construction Contracts; SF 

1418, Performance Bond for Other Than
