Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The number of respondents changed, because it is based on the total number of unique awardees of all contracts over $1,000,000 in a fiscal year based on data from the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS). As a result, the total hours and total cost to the public also decreased because they are based on the number of respondents. The cost per hour for contractor responses increased from $30.75 to $32 per hour because: (1) the Office of Personnel Management increased the General Schedule (GS) hourly wage for a GS-9, step 5 employee since 2013, and (2) the total dollar amount is rounded to the nearest dollar.
