SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. OMB Control Number, Title, and 

Any Associated Form(s) 

9000–0073, Certain Federal Acquisition 

Regulation Part 32 Requirements 

B. Needs and Uses 

DoD, GSA, and NASA are combining 

OMB Control Nos. for the Federal 

Acquisition Regulation (FAR) by FAR 

part. This consolidation is expected to 

improve industry’s ability to easily and 

efficiently identify burdens associated 

with a given FAR part. The review of 

the information collections by FAR part 

allows improved oversight to ensure 

there is no redundant or unaccounted 

for burden placed on industry. Lastly, 

combining information collections in a 

given FAR part is also expected to 

reduce the administrative burden 

associated with processing multiple 

information collections. 

This justification supports the 

revision of OMB Control No. 9000–0073 

and combines it with the previously 

approved information collections under 

OMB Control Nos. 9000–0070, 9000– 

0074, 9000–0102, and 9000–0144, with 

the new title ‘‘Certain Federal 

Acquisition Regulation Part 32 

Requirements’’. Upon approval of this 

consolidated information collection, 

OMB Control Nos. 9000–0070, 9000– 

0074, 9000–0102, and 9000–0144 will 

be discontinued. The burden 

requirements previously approved 

under the discontinued numbers will be 

covered under OMB Control No. 9000– 

0073. 

This clearance covers the information 

that offerors, contractors, or both must 

submit to comply with the following 

FAR requirements: 

FAR 32.408, Application for Advance 

Payments. In accordance with FAR 

32.408(b), contractors requesting 

advance payments must submit their 

request in writing to the contracting 

officer and provide the following 

information: 

Æ A reference to the contract if the 

request concerns an existing contract, or 

a reference to the solicitation if the 

request concerns a proposed contract. 

Æ A cash flow forecast showing 

estimated disbursements and receipts 

for the period of contract performance. 

Æ The proposed total amount of 

advance payments. 

Æ The name and address of the 

financial institution at which the 

contractor expects to establish a special 

account as depository for the advance 

payments. 

Æ A description of the contractor’s 

efforts to obtain unguaranteed private 

financing or a V-loan under eligible 

contracts. 

Æ Other information appropriate to an 

understanding of 

D the contractor’s financial condition 

and need, 

D the contractor’s ability to perform 

the contract without loss to the 

Government, and 

D financial safeguards needed to 

protect the Government’s interest. 

The information is used to determine 

if advance payments should be provided 

to the contractor.

52.232–6, 52.232–7, and 52.232–10— 

Payments. The following FAR clauses 

require the contractor to (as appropriate 

to the payment terms specified in the 

contract) provide a proper invoice or 

voucher. The information is used to 

determine the proper amount of 

payments to Federal contractors. 

Æ 52.232–1, Payments. 

Æ 52.232–2, Payments under FixedPrice Research and Development 

Contracts. 

Æ 52.232–3, Payments under Personal

the contract. 

Æ Additional supporting data in a 

form and detail required by the

Paragraph (c) of FAR clause 52.232– 

5 requires contractors to provide a 

certification with each request for 

progress payment certifying that— 

Æ The amounts requested are only for 

performance in accordance with the 

specifications, terms, and conditions of 

the contract; 

Æ All payments due to subcontractors 

and suppliers from previous payments 

received under the contract have been 

made, and timely payments will be 

made from the proceeds of the payment 

covered by the certification; 

Æ The request for progress payment 

does not include any amounts which 

the prime contractor intends to 

withhold or retain from a subcontractor 

or supplier in accordance with the terms 

and conditions of the subcontract; and 

Æ The certification is not to be 

construed as final acceptance of a 

subcontractor’s performance. 

Paragraph (d) of FAR clause 52.232– 

5 requires contractors to notify 

contracting officers, if the contractor, 

after making a certified request for 

progress payments, discovers that a 

portion or all of the request constitutes 

a payment for performance by the 

contractor that fails to conform to the 

specifications, terms, and conditions of 

the contract. Contractors must notify the 

contracting officer that the performance 

deficiency has been corrected. 

The information is used to determine 

the proper amount of payments to 

Federal contractors for construction 

contracts. 

FAR 52.232–12, Advance Payments. If 

advance payments are authorized, this 

clause requires contractors to submit the 

following: 

Æ Per paragraph (g)—The financial 

institution agreement, in the form 

prescribed by the administering office, 

establishing the special account, and 

clearly setting forth the special character 

of the account and the responsibilities 

of the financial institution under the

Æ Per paragraph (i)(3)—Notification of 

a lien in favor of the Government to a 

third person receiving any items or 

materials on which the Government has 

a lien, and a receipt from that third 

person acknowledging the existence of 

the lien. Contractors are also required to 

provide a copy of each receipt to the 

contracting officer. 

Æ Per paragraph (m)—(1) Monthly, 

signed or certified balance sheets and 

profit and loss statements together with 

a report on the operation of the special 

account in the form prescribed by the 

administering office; and (2) If 

requested, other information concerning 

the operation of the contractor’s 

business. (This same requirement is at 

paragraph (j) of the clause with its 

Alternate V.) 

If advance payments are authorized, 

the information is used to ensure proper 

procedures are followed to protect the 

Government’s interest. 

FAR 52.232–20 and 52.232–22— 

Limitation of Costs or Funds. FAR 

clause 52.232–20, Limitation of Cost, 

requires the contractor to notify the 

contracting officer in writing whenever 

it has reason to believe that— 

Æ The costs the contractors expect to 

incur under the contract in the next 60 

days, when added to all costs previously 

incurred, will exceed 75 percent of the 

estimated cost of the contracts; or 

Æ The total cost for the performance 

of the contract will be greater or 

substantially less than estimated. 

As part of the notification, the 

contractor must provide a revised 

estimate of the total cost of performing 

the contract. 

FAR clause 52.232–22, Limitation of 

Funds, requires the contractor to notify 

the contracting officer in writing 

whenever it has reason to believe that 

the costs it expects to incur under the 

contract in the next 60 days, when 

added to all costs previously incurred, 

will exceed 75 percent of (1) the total 

amount so far allotted to the contract by 

the Government or, (2) if this is a costsharing contract, the amount then 

allotted to the contract by the 

Government plus the contractor’s 

corresponding share. The notice must 

state the estimated amount of additional 

funds required to continue performance 

for the contract period. Sixty days 

before the end of the contract period, 

the contractor must notify the 

contracting officer in writing of the 

estimated amount of additional funds, if 

any, required to continue performance 

under the contract, and when the funds 

will be required. 

The information is used to avoid cost 

overruns and to ensure that funding is 

available to complete work under 

Federal contracts. 

FAR 52.232–27, Prompt Payment for 

Construction Contracts. Paragraph 

(a)(6)(ii) of FAR clause 52.232–27

contracting officer), specifying— 

• The amount to be withheld; 

• The specific causes for the 

withholding under the terms of the 

subcontract; and 

• The remedial actions to be taken by 

the subcontractor in order to receive

when the contractor withholds amounts 

from subcontractors and suppliers after 

the Government has already paid the 

contractor the amounts withheld. 

FAR 52.232–34, Payment by 

Electronic Funds Transfer—Other than

at 52.232–33, Payment by Electronic 

Funds Transfer—System for Award 

Management, is covered by OMB 

Control Number 9000–0189, Certain 

Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 4 

Requirements. OMB Control Number 

9000–0189 accounts for new 

registrations and renewals in the System 

for Award Management, which includes 

providing the EFT information.

Government to make contract payments 

by EFT. 

C. Annual Burden 

Respondents: 275,319. 

Total Annual Responses: 1,817,432. 

Total Burden Hours: 471,947. 

D. Public Comment 

A 60-day notice was published in the 

Federal Register at 87 FR 1599, on 

March 21, 2022. Two comments were 

received; however, they did not change 

the estimate of the burden. 

Comments: One of the comments is 

not related to the information collection. 

The other comment is a vendor’s 

presentation of their products and 

services regarding payment solutions. 

Response: The commenters did not 

express an opinion on whether the 

estimated number of burden hours is 

accurate; or ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information. 

The information collection revision 

does not reflect any changes to the FAR 

requirements. Adjustments are made to 

the public and Government burden 

estimates based on the most recent data 

available.
