submitted to OMB for clearance, the

following proposal for collection of

information under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

Chapter 35).

Title and OMB Number: Defense

Federal Acquisition Regulation

Needs And Uses: This information

information collections used by the

Department of Defense (DoD) to

negotiate an equitable adjustment in the

total amount paid or to be paid under

a fixed-price redeterminable or fixedprice incentive contract, to reflect final

subcontract prices; and to determine if

a contractor has an adequate system for

generating cost estimates, and monitor

correction of any deficiencies. DFARS

215.806–1 requires that, upon

establishment of firm prices for each

subcontract listed in a repricing

modification, the contractor shall

submit costs incurred in performing the

subcontract and the final subcontract

price. This requirement is used when

pricing a fixed-price redeterminable or

fixed-price incentive contract that

includes subcontracts placed on the

same basis for which the contractor has

not yet established final prices, if cost

or pricing data is inadequate to

determine whether the amounts are

reasonable, but circumstances require

prompt negotiation. DFARS 215.811 and

the clause at 252.215–7002, Cost

Estimating System Requirements,

require that certain large business

contractors: (1) Establish an adequate

cost estimating system and disclose

such estimating system to the

Administrative Contracting Officer in

writing; and (2) respond in writing to

written reports from the Government

that identify deficiencies in the

estimating system.

Affected Public: Business or Other

For-Profit; Not-For-Profit Institutions.
