Short Statement: This extension includes adjustments to the public and Government burden estimates based on the following: ● The estimated number of respondents and responses per year is based on the historical average award data available in SAM.gov for fiscal years 2023 through 2025. ● The estimated cost per hour is based on use of the calendar year 2026 OPM GS wage rate for the rest of the United States. ● Subject matter experts (SMEs) examined previous assumptions used to calculate the burden and agreed that access to PII or system of records impacts a much more limited set of contractors. As such the burden estimate was adjusted.
