7. Submittals

7.1. Upon issuance of a Task Order, the contractor shall provide submittals as required by the specifications. The Contracting Officer may request submittals in addition to those specified when deemed necessary to adequately describe the work covered in the respective sections. Units of weights and measures used on all submittals shall be the same as those used in the contract drawings. Each submittal shall be complete and in sufficient detail to allow ready determination of compliance with contract requirements. Submittals shall include items such as: contractor’s work plans / schedules, material submittal register, samples, brochures, manufacturers data, product data sheets, shop drawings and/or certificates of materials (relative to the construction execution), contractor's, manufacturer's, or fabricator's drawings; descriptive literature including (but not limited to) catalog cuts, diagrams, operating charts or curves; test reports; test cylinders;

samples; O&M manuals (including parts list); certifications; warranties; and other such required submittals. Contractor shall plan for, and submit all submittals requiring Government approval prior to the acquisition of the material or equipment covered thereby, in accordance with design criteria, specifications and Task Order Requirements. If the material submittals provided are in variance from the design criteria and/or contract specifications, the contractor shall describe such variations in writing at the time of submission and request a variance from the design criteria and/or contract specifications in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract. Failure to provide such notification will not relieve the contractor from his responsibility of meeting the design criteria and/or contract specifications regardless of whether or not the submittal is approved by the Government. Material submittals shall be as specified under each specification section and be submitted in quadruplicate or on CD unless otherwise indicated; or in electronic format if approved by the Contracting Officer. All the material submittals as indicated in the applicable specification section shall be submitted at the same time.
