FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Angela Duncan, 571-372-7574, or *whs.mc-alex.esd.mbx.dd-dod-information-collections@mail.mil.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: *Title and OMB Number:* Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), Part 211, Describing Agency Needs, and Related Clause at 252.211; OMB Control Number 0704-0398. *Affected Public:* Businesses or other for-profit and not-for profit institutions. *Respondent's Obligation:* Required to obtain or retain benefits. *Frequency:* On occasion. *Number of Respondents:* 3,503. *Responses per Respondent:* Approximately 119. *Annual Responses:* 416,771. *Average Burden per Response:* Approximately 0.1 hour. *Annual Burden Hours:* 41,677. *Needs and Uses:* DFARS 211.274-6 prescribes the use of the clause at DFARS 252.211-7007, which requires contractors to report data to the DoD Item Unique Identification
(IUID)Registry on all serially-managed Government-furnished property (GFP), as well as contractor receipt of non-serially managed items, unless an exception applies. “Serially managed item” means an item designated by DoD to be uniquely tracked, controlled, or managed in maintenance, repair, and/or supply systems by means of its serial number. The clause provides a list of specific data elements contractors are to report to the IUID registry in the GFP module, as well as procedures for updating the registry. DoD needs this information to strengthen the accountability and end-to-end traceability of GFP within DoD. Through electronic notification of physical receipt, DoD is made aware that GFP has arrived at the contractor's facility. The DoD logistics community uses the information as a data source of available DoD equipment. In addition, the DoD organization responsible for contract administration uses the data to test the adequacy of the contractor's property management system. *DoD Clearance Officer:* Ms. Angela Duncan. Requests for copies of the information collection proposal should be sent to Ms. Duncan at *whs.mc-alex.esd.mbx.dd-dod-information-collections@mail.mil.* Jennifer D.
