SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The NASA Contractor Financial Management Reporting System is the
basic financial medium for contractor reporting of estimated and
incurred costs, providing essential data for projecting costs and hours
to ensure that contractor performance is realistically planned and
supported by dollar and labor resources. The data provided by
[[Page 70842]]
these reports is an integral part of the Agency's accrual accounting
and cost based budgeting system. Respondents are reimbursed for
associated cost to provide the information, per their negotiated
contract price and associated terms of the contract. There are no
``total capital and start-up'' or ``total operation and maintenance and
purchase of services'' costs associated since NASA policy requires that
data reported is generated from the contractors' existing system. The
contractors' internal management system shall be relied upon to the
maximum extent possible.
Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized
and included in the request for OMB approval of this information
collection. They will also become a matter of public record.
II. Method of Collection
NASA collects this information electronically and that is the
preferred manner, however information may also be collected via mail or
fax.
