Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) Part 237, Service Contracting, associated DFARS Clauses at DFARS 252.237, DD Form 2062, and DD Form 2063
(1) 252-237-7000 is used to provide information that enables verification that the apparently successful offeror for audit services is properly licensed in the state or other political jurisdiction where it operates its professional practice; (2) 252.237-7011, the DD Form 2062 and DD Form 2063 are used to ensure the mortuary contractor has properly prepared the body; (3) 252.237-7024/252.237-7023 require offerors to submit a written plan describing how it will continue to perform essential contractor service and contractors to maintain and update the plan as necessary.
In accordance with Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Act, Part 1320.13, âEmergency Processing,â the Department of Defense requests emergency processing and approval of a revision to a public information collection. The collection of concern is 0704-0231, âDefense Acquisition Regulations System (DFARS) Service Contracting, Record of Preparation,â which currently includes DD Form 2063, âRecord of Preparation and Disposition of Remains (Contracted Mortuary Facility).â The Department of Defense seeks to revise the collection to also include DD Form 2062, âRecord of Preparation and Disposition of Remains (DoD Mortuary Facility).â This form records services performed by a licensed mortician in the reprocessing of remains of the decendent.
The nature of DD Form 2062 and the impact it has on service members and their families elevates the urgency of clearing this instrument with its counterpart form (DD Form 2063). Complying with the normal clearance procedures would delay the approval of this form and have a negative impact on our service members and their families who may already be experiencing the stress and grief of losing a loved one.
This IC has been revised to include the burden associated with the DD Form 2062, Record of Preparation and Disposition of Remains (DoD Mortuary Facility).
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
