(b) Prior to shipment thereof, the Contractor must submit to the QRO, for inspection and preliminary acceptance, all supplies which are subject to final Government inspection and acceptance at destination. Preliminary acceptance by the QRO constitutes verification by the Government that supplies comply with all contract requirements which are to be completed prior to shipment, including satisfactory completion of factory tests. Any supplies determined by the QRO to be nonconforming or suspected counterfeit parts must be corrected prior to shipment. All other supplies, except those specified to be accepted by the Contracting Officer, must be submitted to the QRO for final inspection and acceptance prior to shipment. For all supplies subject to preliminary acceptance, final acceptance and passage of title to the Government must occur at destination.

(c) Failure of the Contractor to maintain and operate a Quality System in accordance with the terms of the contract may, based upon a written determination of the QRO (and consistent with the quality system requirements of the contract), be grounds for rejection of affected supplies.

The office area must be secure to accommodate meetings of a sensitive nature. File cabinets, suitable desks (both with locking capabilities), office chairs, and other miscellaneous office equipment (as required) must be supplied by the Contractor.
