SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose

    The Truth in Negotiations Act requires the Government to obtain 
certified cost or pricing data under certain circumstances. Contractors 
may request an exemption from this requirement under certain conditions 
and provide other information instead.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Fiscal year 2016 data was obtained from the Federal Procurement 
Data System to estimate burdens for the provisions and clauses 
addressed in this information collection notice. This update does not 
include the requirements at FAR 42.7, Indirect Cost Rates, as this 
requirement is covered under OMB Control Number 9000-0069. The data for 
52.215-20 is for new contract awards in FY 2016. The data for 
modifications and orders executed in FY 2016 applies to new contract 
awards as well as to prior multiple year contracts that continue to be 
active. The following is a summary of the FY 2016 data:
