# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## A. Purpose

                    Under Federal contracts requiring that equipment (                    *e.g.,*                     pumps, fans, generators, chillers, etc.) be installed in a project, the Government must determine that the equipment meets the contract requirements. Therefore, the contractor must submit sufficient data on the particular equipment to allow the Government to analyze the item.                

The Government uses the submitted data to determine whether or not the equipment meets the contract requirements in the categories of performance, construction, and durability. This data is placed in the contract file and used during the inspection of the equipment when it arrives on the project and when it is made operable.

## B. Annual Reporting Burden

The information collection requirement at FAR clause 52.236-5 has decreased based on information from the FY 2017 FPDS database which shows a lower number of estimated respondents that are subject to the clause.

*Respondents:*                     1,377.                

*Responses per Respondent:*                     2.0.                

*Annual Responses:*                     2,754.                

*Hours per Response:*.25.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     689.
