SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    FAR 22.1103 requires that all professional employees are 
compensated fairly and properly. Accordingly, FAR 52.222-46, Evaluation 
of Compensation for Professional Employees, is required to be inserted 
in solicitations for negotiated service contracts when the contract 
amount is expected to exceed $650,000 and the service to be provided 
will require meaningful numbers of professional employees. The purpose 
of the provision at FAR 52.222-46 is to require offerors to submit for 
evaluation a total compensation plan setting forth proposed salaries 
and fringe benefits for professional employees working on the contract. 
Plans indicating unrealistically low professional employees' 
compensation may be assessed adversely as one of the factors considered 
in making a contract award.

B. Annual Reporting and Recordkeeping Burden

    Respondents: 12,921.
    Responses per Respondent: 3.
    Total Responses: 38,763.
    Hours per Response: 1.333333.
    Total Burden Hours: 51,684.

C. Public Comments

    Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this 
collection of information is necessary; whether it will have practical 
utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection 
of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and 
methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and ways in which we can minimize the 
burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, 
through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.
    Obtaining Copies of Proposals: Requesters may obtain a copy of the 
information collection documents from the General Services 
Administration, Regulatory Secretariat Division (MVCB), 1800 F Street 
NW., Washington, DC 20405, telephone 202-501-4755. Please cite OMB 
Control No. 9000-0066, Professional Employee Compensation Plan, in all 
correspondence.
