SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

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

9000-0152, Service Contracting

B. Need and Uses

    This clearance covers the information that offerors must submit to 
comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 
requirement:
    <bullet> FAR 52.237-10, Identification of Uncompensated Overtime. 
This provision requires offerors, when professional or technical 
services are acquired on the basis of the number of hours to be 
provided, to identify uncompensated overtime hours in excess of 40 
hours per week, whether at the prime or subcontract level. This 
includes uncompensated overtime hours that are in indirect cost pools 
for personnel whose regular hours are normally charged direct.
    The contracting officer will use the collected information to 
perform an adequate cost realism analysis of the offerors' proposed 
labor rates. Proposals which include unrealistically low labor rates, 
or which do not otherwise demonstrate cost realism, will be considered 
by the contracting officer in a risk assessment and evaluated 
appropriately. The primary purpose for obtaining the information and 
using it during the source selection process is to discourage the use 
of uncompensated overtime.

C. Annual Burden

    Respondents: 19,738.
    Total Annual Responses: 19,738.
    Total Burden Hours: 9,869.
    Obtaining Copies: Requesters may obtain a copy of the information 
collection documents from the GSA Regulatory Secretariat Division by 
calling 202-501-4755 or emailing <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#f1b6a2b0a39496a29492b1968290df969e87"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b5f2e6f4e7d0d2e6d0d6f5d2c6d49bd2dac3">[email protected]</span></a>. Please cite OMB
