Contractor shall update this schedule monthly. However, the contractor shall provide the government a minimum advance notice of fourteen (14) calendar days of any changed submittal dates. Upon receipt of a submittal, the Government shall do a cursory check of quality and quantity. If a design submittal is lacking, it will be returned for correction and resubmission. The review time will begin when the corrected submittal is received. If an otherwise satisfactory design submittal is over one (1) day late in accordance with the latest design schedule, the

Government review period may be extended up to seven (7) days.

After satisfactory submittal receipt, the Government will be allowed twenty-eight (28) days to review and comment on each pre-concept (10%), concept (30 - 35%), preliminary (50 - 65%) design submittal and twenty-eight (28) days to review and comment on the final (95%) design submittal and any back check submittal(s), except as noted in the individual delivery orders.

For each design review submittal, Government comments from the various design sections and from other concerned agencies involved in the review process will be made in utilizing NIST’s review template.

The review will be for conformance with the contract. The Contractor shall respond to all comments in advance of the next scheduled submittal. The response shall identify action taken with citation of location within the relevant document. Generalized statements of intention such as

"will comply" or "will revise the specification" are not acceptable.

If the Contractor disagrees technically with any comment and does not intend to comply with the comment, the Contractor must clearly outline, with ample justification, the reasons for noncompliance within five (5) days after close of the review period in order that the comment can be resolved. If theContractor believes the action required by any comment exceeds the requirements of this contract, he shall "flag" the comment as being outside design scope. Further, the contractor shall notify the Government in writing immediately.

Review conferences will be held for each design submittal, as required by the individual delivery order. The Contractor shall bring the personnel that developed the design submittal to the review conference. These conferences will take place the week after review completion of each submittal.

During the design review process, comments will be made on the design submittals that will change the drawings and specifications.
