SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

1. Purpose

   The General Services Administration is requesting the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to review and approve information collection, 3090-0200, concerning Sealed Bidding. The information requested regarding an offeror's monthly production capability is needed to make progressive awards to ensure coverage of stock items.

2. Annual Reporting Burden

   Respondents: 10.

   Annual Responses: 10.

   Average Hours Per Response: .5.

   Burden Hours: 5.

   On review the annual responses have decreased, but the time to compile the requested information requires more time, because item purchase has changed from wiping rags to fire pants.
