The information being collected is
required by General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation
(GSAR) clause 552.238-82, Modifications (Federal Supply Schedule).
The clause requires contractors who have a MAS contract to request
a contract modification by submitting information to the
contracting officer. At a minimum, each contract modification
request covered by this clause is to include an explanation for the
request and supporting information. The clause has an Alternate I
and Alternate II as well. The basic clause applies to MAS contracts
that are not subject to transactional data reporting and covers the
following types of requests for contract modification: additional
items/additional SINs, deletions, and price reductions. Alternate I
is pretty much the same as the basic clause with exception to
paragraph (e) being revised to reflect a MAS contractor accepting
eMod. Alternate II applies to MAS contracts subject to
transactional data reporting and covers the following types of
requests for contract modification: additional items/additional
SINs and deletions.
For Item 12, an updated
estimated # of submissions per year was used. This number is
calculated by adding the total number of modifications processed
under this clause over a three fiscal year span and then dividing
that number by 3. This number was then rounded up to the nearest
whole number to account for the possibility of a request being
denied. The change in this number can be attributed to being able
to obtain updated data. Specifically, the update data reflects
fiscal years 2022, 2023, and 2024, whereas the prior data reflected
fiscal years 2019, 2020, and 2021. For Item 14, an updated
estimated # of respondents (year) was used. This number is
calculated by using the same method used to determine the estimated
# of submission per year for Item 12. For Items 12 & 14, an
updated estimated cost per hour was used. This number is based on
the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) GS-12, Step 5 salary of
$48.13 per hour (see OPM Salary Table 2025-RUS, Effective January
2025), plus a fringe factor of 36.25% ($17.45) (see OMB Memo
M-08-13 for use in public-private competition). The change can be
attributed to using current data (i.e., the previous extension used
OPM salary data from 2022).
