In any event, the information furnished hereunder shall be in sufficient detail to permit the Contracting Officer to cross-reference the claimed increased costs, or delay in delivery, or both, as appropriate, submitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this requirement, with the information submitted pursuant to paragraph (b) hereof.

C-243-H002 NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES (NAVSEA) (MAY 2019)

(a) Definitions. As used in this requirement, the term "Contracting Officer" does not include any representative of the Contracting Officer whether or not such representative is acting within the scope of his authority nor does it include any other individuals or activities that in any way communicate with the Contractor. As used in this requirement, the term "conduct" includes both actions and failures to act, and includes the furnishing of, or the failure to furnish, any item under any provision of this contract.

(b) Notice. The primary purpose of this requirement is to obtain prompt reporting of any conduct which the Contractor considers would constitute or would require a change to this contract. The parties acknowledge that proper administration of this contract requires that potential changes be identified and resolved as they arise. Therefore, except for changes identified as such in writing and signed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer of any conduct which the Contractor considers would constitute or would require a change to this contract. Such notice shall be provided promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days from the date the Contractor identifies any such conduct. The Notice shall be written and shall state, on the basis of the most accurate information available to the Contractor:

(1) The date, nature, and circumstances of the conduct regarded as a change;

(2) The name, function, and activity of the individuals directly involved in or knowledgeable about such conduct;

(3) The identification of any documents and the substance of any oral communication involved in such conduct;

(4) The particular elements of contract performance for which the Contractor might seek an equitable adjustment under this requirement, including:

(i) What ship(s) have been or might be affected by the alleged change;

(ii) To the extent practicable, labor or materials or both which have been or might be added, deleted, or wasted by the alleged change;

(iii) To the extent practicable, the Contractor's preliminary order of magnitude estimate of cost and schedule impact, including what delay and disruption in the manner and sequence of performance and effect on continued performance have been or may be caused by the alleged change; and

(iv) What and in what manner are the particular technical requirements or contract requirements regarded as changed; and

(v) The Contractor’s estimate of the time by which the Government must respond to the Contractor’s notice to minimize cost, delay or disruption of performance.

(c) Continued Performance. Except as provided in paragraph (f) below, following submission of notice, the Contractor shall take no action to implement an alleged change until advised by the Contracting Officer in writing as provided in (d) below, unless the alleged change was previously directed by the Contracting Officer, in which case the Contractor shall conform therewith. Nothing in this paragraph (c) shall excuse the Contractor from proceeding with contract work other than implementation of the alleged change or from proceeding in accordance with directions issued by the Contracting Officer.

(d) Government Response. The Contracting Officer shall promptly, and in any event within twenty-one (21) calendar days after receipt of Notice, respond thereto in writing. In such response, the Contracting Officer shall either:

(1) Confirm that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice would constitute a change, and when necessary, direct the mode of further performance, or;

(2) Countermand any conduct regarded by the Contractor as a change, or;

(3) Deny that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice would constitute a change and, when necessary, direct the mode of further performance, or;

(4 In the event the Contractor's notice information is inadequate to make a decision under (i), (ii) or (iii) above, advise the Contractor what additional information is required. Failure of the Government to respond within the time required above shall be deemed a countermand under (d)(ii).

(e) Equitable Adjustments. Equitable adjustments for changes confirmed or countermanded by the Contracting Officer shall be made in accordance with the clause of this contract entitled "CHANGES", or any other requirement of this contract which provides for an equitable adjustment.

(f) Special Procedures. Paragraph (c) provides that the Contractor is to take no action to implement an alleged change pending the Contracting Officer's response to the Contractor's notice of the change, except where specifically directed by the Contracting Officer. In special situations, however, such as where:

(1) The circumstances do not allow sufficient time to notify the Contracting Officer of the facts prior to the need to proceed with the work, and;

(2) The work must proceed to avoid hazards to personnel or property or to avoid additional cost to the Government, the Contractor may proceed with work in accordance with the alleged change. In such special situations, the Contractor shall advise the Contracting Officer in writing within ten (10) days of the conduct giving rise to the alleged change that the Contractor has proceeded with work and shall describe the nature of the special situation which required proceeding prior to notification. Within thirty (30) calendar days of the conduct giving rise to the alleged change, the Contractor shall provide notice as required in (b) above. The Contracting Officer shall respond as set forth in (d) above. If the Contracting Officer determines that the conduct constitutes a change and countermands it, the Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment for performance of work in accordance with that change prior to the countermand including any additional performance resulting from the countermand.

(g) When the Contractor identifies any conduct which may result in delay to delivery of the ship(s), the Contractor shall promptly so inform the Contracting Officer thereof prior to providing the notice required by paragraph (b) above.

(h) Despite good faith best efforts, occasions may arise in which the Contractor does not provide notice within the time periods specified in paragraphs (b) and (f) above. Accordingly, prior to the end of the first and third quarters of each calendar year through the period of performance of this contract, beginning with the quarter of , the Contractor shall deliver to the Government an executed release, in the format set forth in Exhibit "A" to this requirement, covering the six-month period of time ending with the second and fourth quarters, respectively, of the preceding year, with such specific exceptions, if any, as are identified by the Contractor. If the Contractor cites specific exceptions to the release, the Contractor shall concurrently provide the Contracting Officer with notice, containing the information set forth in paragraph (b) of this requirement, for each item excepted from the release. However, the release required by this requirement shall not make unallowable any costs which are otherwise allowable under any other requirement of this contract. Within sixty (60) days of receipt of the release, the Contracting Officer shall sign and return a copy of the release to the Contractor. If the Contracting Officer fails to execute and return the release within the required time, then the release shall be deemed to be void and of no effect for the period involved.

EXHIBIT A TO C-243-H002, NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES

(End of Exhibit A)

C-243-H003 CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT (NAVSEA) (JAN 2019)

(a) Baseline Definition - All contractual documentation in effect at the time of contract award shall constitute the Contract Baseline, which shall be considered incorporated in the baseline documentation.

(b) General Requirement - (1) The Contractor shall maintain a Configuration Control Program to assure that all detail level work being performed under this contract is in compliance with appropriate baseline documentation.

The Contractor shall prepare a Configuration Management Plan in accordance with the requirements of the contract.

If required, the Contractor’s Configuration Management Plan shall be submitted through the appropriate Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) for approval by the Government.

(2) Whenever a situation arises wherein the Contractor cannot comply with a baseline document, or whenever intent of such documentation is significantly changed by detail level documentation, the Contractor shall submit change documents to modify the baseline to resolve the conflict or to allow non-compliance. Whenever the cost of implementing a proposed change is less than the threshold requiring certified cost or pricing data, the Contractor shall provide such detail of related costs as to allow the Government to determine an equitable adjustment for the change document submission. Whenever the contract cost changes by an amount greater than the threshold requiring certified cost or pricing data, the Contractor shall complete such cost and pricing data as the Contracting Officer shall require detailing all related costs, and attach it to the change document. Requirements for cost and pricing data shall be determined by the gross amount of the change unless otherwise directed by the Contracting Officer. Change documentation shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer in accordance with the appropriate CDRL, and as described in paragraphs (c) through (f) below.

(c) Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) - ECPs shall be prepared in accordance with the approved configuration management plan and the requirements of the contract. DI-SESS-80639D approved 7 April 2015, EIA-649-1 of Nov 2014 and MIL-HDBK-61A of 7 Feb 2001 apply. An ECP shall be submitted whenever the detail level physical configuration, material quality, operational or functional performance of equipment or installed systems will not be in compliance with baseline design-related documents (Specifications, Contract Drawings, etc.), and a change to the baseline document is considered an appropriate means of resolving a design-related issue. The contractor shall develop documentation in sufficient detail to enable Government review and evaluation of the merits of the proposed change, including cost and scheduling impact, ship class impact if applicable, and consequences if disapproved. List all existing drawings and technical manuals impacted by the change, including a brief narrative explanation of needed changes to incorporate the ECP if approved. Provide weight and moment data incidental to the change, if applicable. The Contractor shall also prepare applicable baseline document insert sheets, with specific word changes or proposed re-write, to facilitate baseline documentation changes.

(d) Non-Engineering Change Proposals (NECPs) – An NECP shall be submitted whenever necessary to document administrative, procedural, scheduling, or documentation changes that do not directly impact the physical configuration of the equipment. The NECP shall explain the nature of the problem, identify the applicable baseline document (i.e., Contract Data Requirement List (CDRL), Contract Clause, etc.) and provide a detailed explanation justifying the proposed course of action desired to resolve the problem. Insert sheets for applicable documents shall also be attached to facilitate change action in the event the NECP is approved.

(e) Deviations/Waivers - In the event that a baseline design-related document requirement cannot be met, and a change to the baseline document is considered inappropriate, the Contractor shall submit a Request for Variance.

The explanation of "Need for Deviation/Waiver" in the DD1694 shall provide detailed justification and consequences of approval, to include technical details explaining the degree of non-compliance and the effect on ship equipment or system operation.

(f) Equitable Adjustments for Change Documentation Preparations - For its effort expended in preparing ECPs, NECPs, and Deviations/Waivers, the Contractor shall receive equitable adjustment under the following circumstances:

(1) In the event the Contractor, on its own initiative, and without written request from the Contracting Officer, develops a change document that is later disapproved by the Government, the Contractor shall bear the cost of this effort.

(2) To avoid such loss, and at its option, the Contractor may submit a "preliminary" document that outlines intent, but without detailed supporting documentation and request the Contracting Officer's approval for expenditure of effort to complete the detailed supporting documentation. In the event the Contracting Officer denies this request, the Contractor will bear the cost of development of the "preliminary" document, and shall make no further effort to complete detailed supporting documentation.

(3) In the event the Contracting Officer approves the Contractor's request to develop supporting documentation, the Contractor shall be equitably compensated for its effort for both the "preliminary" and "final" documentation, regardless of whether or not the change document is later approved.

(4) In the event the Contracting Officer requests in writing that the Contractor develop change documentation, the effort expended by the Contractor in developing such documentation shall be subject to equitable adjustment, regardless of whether or not the change document is later approved.

(5) In the event the Contractor, on its own initiative, and without written request from the Government, develops a change document that is later approved by the Contracting Officer, the cost of developing such documentation shall be subject to equitable adjustment.

(6) Failure to agree to such equitable adjustment in contract price shall constitute a dispute, and shall be adjudicated in accordance with the requirements of the clause entitled "Disputes" (FAR 52.233-1).

(g) Any cost reduction proposal submitted pursuant to the clause entitled "Value Engineering" (FAR 52.248-1) shall be submitted as a Value Engineering Change Proposal (VECP). The Contractor shall follow the VECP preparation requirements of FAR 52.248-1(c) and any additional guidance provided by the Contracting Officer.
