Calls are authorized when they are placed against this BPA by authorized personnel, against authorized line items.

The Government is obligated only to the extent of authorized purchases made under the BPA by authorized individuals, and then only to the extent that they are delivered and acceptable to the government. The contractor is cautioned that acceptance of calls from personnel other than those authorized herein may jeopardize payment.
