1. Thank you for setting up the F-16 Wing Shop tour, it was quite helpful for all. Barb Simbrose and Christy Siddens were terrific hosts. The recent Q&A released on FBO didn’t contain the new information disclosed during the tour on September 5, 2013. This information included topics such as floor plans, shelving, fork lift, additional meetings, LAN hosting and POCs, parking, workload planning baseline, flow days, target throughput, current layout and quantities of DLA inventory on the shop floor and on the SSC shelves, DLA manning and POCs. Is there another Q&A on the way?

4. PWS (C.8.1.3) requires ECPs to be submitted IAW FAR 52.248-1 (Value Engineering); however the Flight Chief (Chad Lewis) stated the shop typically communicates with Engineering in the SPO via form 202 and that tracking the 202s to the wing serial number was desired. Please clarify the desired process and requirements for Configuration Control (C.8) and specify the portions of FAR 52.248-1 that are applicable to C.8 Configuration Control or to C.4.1.7 Disincentive Plan, if applicable.

Answer: At this point the desired process will be IAW FAR 52.248-1 as stated in (C.8.1.3). As the contract matures the possibility of utilizing form 202 could be explored.

Answer: As for configuration control/management any changes or deviation will be coordinated with the Contracting Officer in writing. As a minimum the information will be IAW FAR 52.248-1 under VECP Preparation requirements.
