In accordance with FAR 46.706(b)(5), Markings, the Contractor shall stamp or mark the supplies delivered or otherwise furnish notice with the supplies of the existence of the warranty. The purpose of the marking or notice is to inform Government personnel who store, stock, or use the supplies that the supplies are under warranty. Markings may be brief but should include:

a brief statement that a warranty exists, the substance of the warranty, its duration, and who to notify if the supplies are found to be defective.

5.2 For commercial items the Contractor's trade practice in warranty marking is acceptable if sufficient information is presented for supply personnel and users to identify warranted supplies.

In the event of a conflict, the terms and conditions of the contract shall take precedence over the standard commercial warranty. The standard commercial warranty period shall begin upon final acceptance of the applicable material and/or services listed in the Schedule. The warranty shall cover a minimum period of twelve (12) months.
