SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
Certain Federal contracts provide for
progress payments to be made to the
contractor during performance of the
contract. The requirement for
certification and supporting information
are necessary for the administration of
statutory and regulatory limitation on
the amount of progress payments under
a contract. The submission of
supporting cost schedules is an optional
procedure that, when the contractor
elects to have a group of individual
orders treated as a single contract for
progress payments purposes, is
necessary for the administration of
statutory and regulatory requirements
concerning progress payments.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Respondents: 27,000.
Responses Per Respondent: 32.
Annual Responses: 864,000.
Hours Per Response: .55.
Total Burden Hours: 475,000.

PROPOSALS: Requesters may obtain a
