Abstract: (1) 252-237-7000 is used to provide information that enables verification that the apparently successful offeror for audit services is properly licensed in the state or other political jurisdiction where it operates its professional practice; (2) 252.237-7011, the DD Form 2062 and DD Form 2063 are used to ensure the mortuary contractor has properly prepared the body; (3) 252.237-7024/252.237-7023 require offerors to submit a written plan describing how it will continue to perform essential contractor service and contractors to maintain and update the plan as necessary.

Emergency Justfication: In accordance with Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Act, Part 1320.13, “Emergency Processing,” the Department of Defense requests emergency processing and approval of a revision to a public information collection. The collection of concern is 0704-0231, “Defense Acquisition Regulations System (DFARS) Service Contracting, Record of Preparation,” which currently includes DD Form 2063, “Record of Preparation and Disposition of Remains (Contracted Mortuary Facility).” The Department of Defense seeks to revise the collection to also include DD Form 2062, “Record of Preparation and Disposition of Remains (DoD Mortuary Facility).” This form records services performed by a licensed mortician in the reprocessing of remains of the decendent. The nature of DD Form 2062 and the impact it has on service members and their families elevates the urgency of clearing this instrument with its counterpart form (DD Form 2063). Complying with the normal clearance procedures would delay the approval of this form and have a negative impact on our service members and their families who may already be experiencing the stress and grief of losing a loved one.
