Burden Increase Due to:

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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The estimated changes are based on a decrease in projected hours, which is attributed to a decline in the number of fixed-price contracts being awarded with a DFARS part 216 economic price adjustment clause. The overall decline in the number of contract awards may also be associated with and attributed to the drawdown in Iraq and Afghanistan. The drawdown, which began during FY 2011, was projected to taper off by the end of 2014. Based on current economic conditions, the number of annual number of contract associated with DFARS 252.216-7000, -7001, and -7003 is expected to remain relatively stable for the next three years.
