Nonelectronic forms of SBU building information include paper documents, among other formats.
1) By mail. Contractors must utilize only methods of shipping that provide services for monitoring receipt such as track and confirm, proof of delivery, signature confirmation, or return receipt.
2) In person. Contractors must provide SBU building information only to authorized recipients with a need to know such information. Further information on authorized recipients is found in Section 2 of this clause.
(d) Record keeping. Contractors must maintain a list of all entities to which SBU is disseminated, in accordance with sections 2 and 3 of this clause.

For Federal buildings, final payment may be withheld until the lists are received.
(e) Safeguarding SBU documents. SBU building information (both electronic and paper formats) must be protected, with access strictly controlled and limited to those individuals having a legitimate business need to know such information. GSA contractors and subcontractors must not take SBU building information outside of GSA or their own facilities or network, except as necessary for the performance of that contract. Access to the information must be limited to those with a legitimate business need to know.

The contractor may return the SBU documents to the CO rather than destroying them.
(h) Incidents. All improper disclosures of SBU building information must be immediately reported to the CO at joan.amend@gsa.gov. If the contract provides for progress payments, the CO may withhold approval of progress payments until the contractor provides a corrective action plan explaining how the contractor will prevent future improper disclosures of SBU building information.

(1) Submission Requirements for Final ECW Proposal. During the design phase, and at a time agreed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall submit the following:
(i) A detailed statement of all firm-fixed-price early work packages in the performance of the construction work to date;

The final ECW shall be established and incorporated into the Contract by bilateral modification.

Prior to the use of the CCA, the Contractor shall coordinate approval following the procedures identified in the contract.
