Proposal Under OMB Delegated 

Authority To Extend for Three Years, 

With Revision, the Following 

Information Collection 

Collection title: Procurement 

Solicitation Package. 

Collection identifier: FR 1400. 

OMB control number: 7100–0180. 

General description of collection: The 

Board uses the Procurement Solicitation 

Package, which includes a supplier 

database and solicitation documents as 

appropriate, to assist in the competitive 

process of soliciting proposals from 

suppliers of goods and services. The 

Procurement Solicitation Package 

includes the Supplier Registration 

System (FR 1400A), the Solicitation 

Package (Solicitation, Offer, and Award 

Form; Supplier Information Form; Past 

Performance Data Sheet; and Past 

Performance Questionnaire) (FR 1400B), 

the Supplier Risk Management Offeror 

Questionnaire (FR 1400C), and the 

Subcontracting Report (FR 1400D). The 

information collected through the 

Procurement Solicitation Package is 

necessary for Board staff to fairly and 

accurately evaluate the merits of 

suppliers’ proposals, to select the 

proposal most advantageous to the 

Board, taking into account price and 

other key factors, and to award and 

administer contracts after a supplier has 

been selected. 

Proposed revisions: The Board 

proposes to clear a new, event-generated 

form, the Contractor Conflict of Interest 

Screening (FR 1400E). The FR 1400E 

will be used to screen potential 

contractors that would be conducting 

research pertaining to the Board’s 

mission (e.g., monetary policy, financial 

stability, or supervision and regulation) 

and/or have access to sensitive Board 

information such as confidential

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 189 / Monday, September 30, 2024 / Notices 79591 

supervisory information, in order to 

determine if they have any conflict of 

interests. The 1400E has four main 

sections: Financial Interests, Outside 

Employment or Consulting in Banking 

or Economic Industries, Work with 

Foreign Governments, and Relatives in 

Related Businesses. Applicants are 

asked to list assets that they, their 

spouse, or their minor children hold 

that might be conflicts of interest. The 

potential contractor is also asked to list 

any outside employment that is relevant 

to the Board, including any employment 

for or with a foreign government, within 

the past three years. Lastly, the 

applicant is asked to specify any 

position their spouse, child, parent, or 

sibling currently holds at a financial 

institution (such as a bank, bank 

holding company, savings and loan 

holding company, thrift or savings and 

loan association, or affiliate of any such 

entity; consulting or law firm advising 

financial institutions; economic 

forecasting or consulting firm; or a 

vendor/contractor) that works with the 

Federal Reserve System. 

Frequency: FR 1400A/FR 1400B/FR 

1400C, event-generated; FR 1400D, 

semiannual. 

Respondents: Businesses and 

individuals. 

Total estimated number of

1400C, 7.6; FR 1400D, 0.7; FR 1400E, 

0.45.

hours. 

Total estimated annual burden hours:
