ACTION: Final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Director of Defense Procurement is amending the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to revise DD Form 350 and DD Form 1057 contract action reporting requirements to comply with the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-355) and to enhance data collection procedures. EFFECTIVE DATE: October 1, 1996. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Defense Acquisition Regulations Council, Attn: Mr. Michael Mutty, (703) 602-0131, PDUSD (A&T) DP (DAR), IMD 3D139, 3062 Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-3062. Telefax number (703) 602-0350. Please cite DFARS Case 96-D315 in all correspondence related to this case. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A. Background This final rule makes changes to the internal Department of Defense (DoD) contract data reporting system to enable reporting of data required by the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 (the Act). The Act, in part, requires DoD to report statistics on indefinite delivery type contracts, commercial financing procedures, and synopsis and solicitation procedures associated with commercial items. This final rule also revises DD Form 350 and DD Form 1057 to enhance the reporting system by identifying the agency that originated/assigned the contract number and by more precisely describing the kind of contracting action being reported. B. Regulatory Flexibility Act The final rule does not constitute a significant revision within the meaning of FAR 1.501 and Public Law 98-577 and publication for public comment is not required. However, comments from small entities concerning the affected DFARS subparts will be considered in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 610. C. Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the final rule does not impose any reporting of recordkeeping requirements that require Office of Management and Budget approval under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.
