The data to be furnished hereunder shall be prepared in accordance with the Contract Data Requirements List, DD Form 1423, Exhibit(s) A001, attached hereto.

C-242-H001 EXPEDITING CONTRACT CLOSEOUT (NAVSEA) (OCT 2018)

(a) As part of the negotiated fixed price or total estimated amount of this contract, both the Government and the Contractor have agreed to waive any entitlement that otherwise might accrue to either party in any residual dollar amount of $1,000 or less at the time of final contract closeout. The term "residual dollar amount" shall include all money that would otherwise be owed to either party at the end of the contract, except that, amounts connected in any way with taxation, allegations of fraud and/or antitrust violations shall be excluded. For purposes of determining residual dollar amounts, offsets of money owed by one party against money that would otherwise be paid by that party may be considered to the extent permitted by law.

(b) This agreement to waive entitlement to residual dollar amounts has been considered by both parties. It is agreed that the administrative costs for either party associated with collecting such small dollar amounts could exceed the amount to be recovered.

C-243-H003 CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT (NAVSEA) (APR 2024)

(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-80639E approved 11 February 2020, EIA-649-1A dated 10 August 2020, and MIL-HDBK-61B dated 7 April 2020 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 rewrite, 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 noncompliance 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.
