Abstract: The termination settlement proposal forms (Standard Forms 1435 through 1440) will be used by all Executive agencies, including the Department of Defense, for settling terminated prime contracts and subcontracts per FAR Subpart 49.6. The forms provide a standardized format for listing essential cost and inventory information needed to support the terminated contractor's negotiated position. Submission of this information assures that a contractor will be fairly reimbursed upon settlement of the terminated contract. No other format exists for the collection of this information that we are aware of.

Short Statement: Based on data retrieved from the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS) there was an estimated average of 4,851 unique vendors that would have been subject to the termination settlement proposal forms (Standard Forms 1435 through 1440). The previously approved burden hours per response of 2.4 hours are still relevant for this information collection. No public comments were received in prior years that have challenged the validity of the Government’s estimate. Based on the decrease in the three year average for unique vendors that would have been subject to the termination settlement proposal forms, the burden hours have been reduced by 1,866 hours.
