All material segregated for retail remaining at the conclusion of the contract shall be returned to the Government at no additional cost.

Any requisition for planned retail allowancing shall be coordinated between the Contractor and the PCO in advance of issuing the requisition.

Any quantities for each NSN shown on Attachment B – Wholesale Inventory Transfer, including Current and Planned Retail Quantities provided to the Contractor, but not utilized to fulfill a current and/or planned retail requisition during the period of performance will be returned to the Government and will be in addition to the wholesale inventory provided to the Government in accordance with SOW Section C02 7.0, Contractor Return of Inventory.

6.1 UNPLANNED RETAIL REQUIREMENTS AND USE OF EXCESS WHOLESALE

INVENTORY

The Government anticipates there may be unplanned retail requisitions during the course of the period of performance, above and beyond those identified on Attachment B – Wholesale Inventory Transfer, including Current and Planned Retail Quantities.

For Navy/Marine Corps unplanned initial outfitting requirements, the contractor shall proceed as follows:

(a) If, during the course of this contract, the Contractor receives an initial outfitting requisition in excess of the individual NSN/LCN current or planned quantity identified in Attachment B and there is a surplus of initial outfitting GFP inventory, the Contractor will be required to fill the requisition.

(b) If there was not a surplus of initial outfitting GFP inventory, but the Contractor has an RFI asset available and can fill the requisition without a negative impact to other performance, they will be required to do so. Contractor shall be entitled to price adjustment in accordance with the negotiated variable price of the part as indicated on Attachment J, Negotiated Variable Unit Price by Part by Year.

(c) If the Contractor does not have an available RFI asset, but has available F condition NRFI Wholesale assets that can be inducted for repair with no negative impact to performance, upon instruction of the PCO, they will be required to do so and fill the unplanned outfitting when the requisition is passed after repair of the asset is completed and placed into “A” condition, in accordance with the Repair Turn Around Time (RTAT). The Contractor shall be entitled to price adjustment in accordance with the negotiated variable price of the part as indicated on Attachment J, Negotiated Variable Unit Price by Part by Year.

(d) If there is no surplus initial outfitting inventory and the Contractor does not have an available asset, the Government may augment the initial outfitting GFP inventory separately from this contract. In that event, the inventory will deliver to the contractor site and be used to fill the unplanned initial outfitting requirement. As a result, any requisition issued for an initial outfitting under scenario (d), where an “A” condition asset is not available and scenarios (a) through (c) above do not apply shall be cancelled.

Scenarios (a) through (c) shall be coordinated between the Contractor and the PCO in advance of issuing the requisition.

Any fulfillment of an unplanned retail requisition will not be included in the SRT Metric.

C02 – 7.0 CONTRACTOR RETURN OF INVENTORY

The number of RFI assets shall be calculated prior to contract award using the formula below based on baseline demand in PoPs 4 and 5 The calculated results are included in the negotiated contract value. At the end of this contract, the quantity of each line item on Attachment G – Contractor Return of Inventory is a deliverable under this contract and included within the contract price. These quantities are part of the government inventory returned and are not in addition to the total inventory.

This RFI quantity shall be provided to the Government, within the contract price, regardless of whether the Government decides to continue with a follow-on PBL, return to traditional contract support, or cease support. The Contractor may request relief from this requirement for items with insufficient carcasses to produce the required RFI quantity when the lack of carcasses is due to circumstances beyond the Contractor’s control.

The portion of the formula (Projected Retail Quantities - Actual Retail Quantities) only applies if the number calculated is 0 or a positive number; otherwise, retail that is excess to what is forecasted under Attachment B is subject to the terms and conditions under C02 6.1 Unplanned Retail Requirements and Use of Excess Wholesale Inventory.

Notes:

1. Any inventory that is segregated for initial outfitting requirements (per Section C2 – 3.3) that remains at the end of the contract shall be returned to the Government. These assets shall be considered separate and distinct from the RFI inventory to be returned in accordance with the above formula.

2. If “A” condition Government furnished inventory exists at completion of the contract that exceeds the quantity driven by the formula, this additional RFI inventory is provided to the Government at no additional cost.

3. The required RFI quantity due to the Government at the end of the contract, as calculated by the formula above, may include assets in the repair process or on order by the Contractor at the end of the contract. The Contractor shall complete those repairs and/or provide the spares that are on order even if performance of those activities extends beyond the end of the contract period. At the end of this contract, the quantity identified for each NSN on Attachment L will be in Ready for Issue (RFI) condition and delivered to the Government within 60 days of the contract ending, with the exception of assets in the repair cycle. Those assets in the repair cycle will be delivered in accordance with the RTAT of the NSN.
