Title: Contractor Profile.
Abstract: In January 2011, NCUA created the Office of Minority and Women Inclusion (OMWI), as mandated by sec. 342 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (``Act'') (Pub. L. 111-203). As prescribed by sec. 342(c) of the Act, OMWIs shall develop and implement standards and procedures to ensure the fair inclusions and utilization of minorities, women, and minority-owned and women-owned business in all business and activities of the agency at all levels, including in procurement, insurance, and all types of contracts. NCUA has developed the Contractor Profile form that will be completed by a contractor to ensure the fair inclusion and utilization of minorities and women in the workforce of the contractor and, as applicable, subcontractor. The Contractor Profile form will include a series of questions covering a contractor's, and, as applicable, a subcontractor's diversity strategies, policies, recruitment, succession planning, and outreach. The information provided will be used by NCUA to determine if good faith efforts are met and to fulfill statutory requirements of the Act. Determinations are valid for a two-year period.

Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and included in the request for Office of Management and Budget approval. All comments will become a matter of public record. The public is invited to submit comments concerning: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the function of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of the information on the respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
