requirements under current OMB 

control number 0720–0032. Specifically, 

under the collection of information, 

respondents (drug manufacturers) will 

base refund calculation reporting 

requirements on both the Federal 

Ceiling Price and the Federal Supply 

Schedule Price, whichever is lower. 

Previously, drug manufacturers’ 

reporting requirements addressed only 

the Federal Ceiling Price. DoD will use 

the reporting and audit capabilities of 

the Pharmacy Data Transaction Service 

(PDTS) to validate refunds owed to the 

Government.

proposed information collection or to 

obtain a copy of the proposal and 

associated collection instruments, 

please write to Department of the Army, 

Military Surface Deployment and 

Distribution Command, 661 Sheppard

Title, Associated Form, and OMB 

Number: Department of Defense 

Standard Tender of Freight Services, 

SDDC Form 364–R, OMB Control 

Number 0702–0261. 

Needs and Uses: The information 

derived from the DoD tenders on file 

with the Military Surface Deployment 

and Distribution Command (SDDC) is 

used by SDDC subordinate commands 

and DoD shippers to select the best 

value carriers to transport surface freight 

shipments. Freight carriers furnish 

information in a uniform format so that 

the Government can determine the cost 

of transportation, accessorial, and 

security services, and select the best 

value carriers for 1.1 million Bill of 

Lading shipments annually. The DoD 

tender is the source document for the 

General Services Administration postshipment audit of carrier freight bills. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit. 

Annual Burden Hours: 5,391. 

Number of Respondents: 434. 

Responses per Respondent: 50. 

Average Burden per Response: 15 

minutes. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Summary of Information Collection 

The DoD tender format was developed 

to take advantage of improved 

information collection technology and 

to connect with ongoing initiatives to 

implement automated systems to file 

tenders, select carriers, quote rates, and 

audits. The disciplined data fields of the 

tenders will facilitate the Electronic 

Data Interchange of tender data between 

carriers and SDDC, also between SDDC 

subordinate commands and DoD 

shippers. This initiative ultimately will 

permit electronic filing of the tender 

and eliminate mailing paper documents, 

which are manually processed.
