SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    The General Services Administration (GSA) has various mission 
responsibilities related to the acquisition and provision of the 
Federal Acquisition Service's (FAS's) Stock, Special Order, and 
Schedules Programs. These mission responsibilities generate 
requirements that are realized through the solicitation and award of 
various types of FAS contracts. Individual solicitations and resulting 
contracts may impose unique information collection and reporting 
requirements on contractors, not required by regulation, but necessary 
to evaluate particular program accomplishments and measure success in 
meeting program objectives. As such, GSAR 516.506, Solicitation 
provision and clauses, specifically directs contracting officers to 
insert 552.216-72, Placement of Orders, when the contract authorizes 
FAS and other activities to issue delivery or task orders and 552.216-
73, Ordering Information, directs the Offeror to elect to receive 
orders placed by FAS by either facsimile transmission or computer-to-
computer Electronic Data Interchange (EDI).

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Respondents: 7,143.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 7,143.
    Hours per Response: .25.
    Total Burden Hours: 1,786.

C. Public Comments

    Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this 
collection of information is necessary and whether it will have 
practical utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this 
collection of information is accurate and based on valid assumptions 
and methodology; and ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information to be collected.
