SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. OMB Control Number, Title, and Any Associated Form(s):

    OMB Control No. 9000-0013, Certified Cost or Pricing Data and Data 
Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data.

B. Need and Uses

    The Truth in Negotiations Act, 10 U.S.C. chapter 271 and 41 U.S.C. 
chapter 35, requires the Government to obtain certified cost or pricing 
data from contractors prior to the award of certain contract actions. 
Contractors may be exempt from this requirement under certain 
conditions. This clearance covers the information that offerors or 
contractors must submit to comply with the following FAR requirements:
    <bullet> FAR 52.214-28, Subcontractor Certified Cost or Pricing 
Data-Modifications-Sealed Bidding. When contracting by sealed bidding, 
this clause requires contractors to require subcontractors to submit 
certified cost or pricing data for a modification involving aggregate 
increases and/or decreases in costs, plus applicable profits, expected 
to exceed the threshold for submission of certified cost or pricing 
data at FAR 15.403-4(a)(1).
    <bullet> FAR 52.215-12, Subcontractor Certified Cost or Pricing 
Data. When contracting by negotiation, this clause requires contractors 
to require subcontractors to submit certified cost or pricing data.
    <bullet> FAR 52.215-13, Subcontractor Certified Cost or Pricing 
Data--Modifications. When contracting by negotiation, this clause 
requires contractors to require subcontractors to submit certified cost 
or pricing data for a modification involving a pricing adjustment 
expected to exceed the threshold for submission of certified cost or 
pricing data at FAR 15.403-4(a)(1).
    <bullet> FAR 52.215-20, Requirements for Certified Cost or Pricing 
Data and Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data. When 
contracting by negotiation, this provision requires offerors, if not 
granted an exception, to prepare and submit certified cost or pricing 
data, data other than certified cost or pricing data, and supporting 
attachments in accordance with the instructions contained in Table 15-2 
of FAR 15.408, unless the contracting officer and the contractor agree 
to a different format.
    <bullet> FAR 52.215-21, Requirements for Certified Cost or Pricing 
Data and Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data--Modifications. 
When contracting by negotiation, this clause requires contractors, if 
not granted an exception, to submit, for a modification or price 
adjustment expected to exceed the threshold set forth at FAR 15.403-
4(a)(1), certified cost or pricing data, data other than certified cost 
or pricing data, and supporting attachments in accordance with the 
instructions contained in Table 15-2 of FAR 15.408, unless the 
contracting officer and the contractor agree to a different format.
    Certified cost or pricing data is used by agencies to assure that 
contract prices and any subsequent contract modifications are fair and 
reasonable.
