a. Log on to the SAM.gov website.

b. Select Contract Opportunities in the search bar and search by solicitation number.

(1) TDPs that have an Export Control Warning Notice are subject to the Arms Export Control Act (Title 22, U.S.C., Sec 2751, et.seq.) or the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended, Title 50, U.S.C, App. 2401 et. seq.

(2) Further dissemination must be in accordance with provisions of DoD Directive 5230.25. This also applies to distribution of the TDP to all SUBCONTRACTORS at every level.

(3) To obtain these TDPs, vendors and Contractors must have a current DD 2345, Militarily Critical Technical Data Agreement on file with Defense Logistics Information Service (DLIS). If you are currently certified, your MPIN will be verified, and you may proceed to the next step. To obtain DLA Enhanced Validation(DEV)certification, login to the Joint Certification Program (JCP) https://www.dla.mil/Logistics-Operations/Services/JCP/. Click on documents and follow instructions provided. Processing time is estimated at six (6) to ten (10) weeks after receipt.

(4) Upon completion of the purposes for which Government Technical Data has been provided, the Contractor is required to destroy all documents, including all reproductions, duplications, or copies thereof as may have been further distributed by the Contractor.

Destruction of this technical data shall be accomplished by shredding, pulping, burning, or melting any physical copies of the TDP and/or deletion or removal of downloaded TDP files from computer drives and electronic devices, and any copies of those files.

c. If technical data is otherwise restricted, click the document title to request access. A window will pop-up, select "Request Access" to controlled documents and enter the Reason for Access. This will generate an email to the Contract Opportunities system administrator at DLA Weapons Support (Warren) with all the information needed for them to grant you access.

Drawing Limitations

(a) The drawings supplied with this contract are not shop or process drawings. They are engineering design drawings. They are adequate to permit manufacture, and:

(1) depict the completed (item(s), and

(2) serve as the basis for inspection of the completed item(s).

(b) These drawings DON'T cover intermediate drawings/specifications or steps in the manufacturing process. As a result, even if you meet all the dimensions and tolerances specified in the engineering design drawing for each individual part, a cumulative unacceptable fit for the contract item could result.

(c) The Contractor is responsible for producing the shop or process drawings needed to cover intermediate steps in the manufacturing process.

(d) The Contractor is responsible for obtaining all specifications and drawings necessary to manufacture the items being solicited in accordance with the TDP including all incorporated specifications and drawings. Delivery delays are not excusable where the

Contractor asserts that it did not have a specification or drawing and has failed to request, in writing, the specification from either the Procuring Contracting Officer or Contract Specialist prior to the solicitation closing date.

(e) If you fail to produce an end item with a cumulative fit that conforms to Government drawings, specifications or other supplemental manufacturing documentation, you'll be responsible for correcting this condition at no additional cost to the Government and no delivery schedule extension.

If a delivery date change is needed, it must be negotiated with the Procuring Contracting Officer and documented via modification to the contract. The submission of an ECP and/or RFV by the

Contractor shall not preclude the Government from exercising its rights under any clause of the Contract.

(c) Specifications - Permanent proposed changes to specifications which are part of the TDP or baseline documentation shall be requested with an ECP and NOR (i.e. Specification Change Notices (SCNs) are not required).

(d) Forms If any of the above listed forms are not included with the solicitation or contract, the Contractor may locate forms on the

Alternative to Lot Acceptance Sampling (including Statistical Process Control)

(a) Offerors are encouraged to propose a defect prevention strategy in lieu of lot acceptance inspection and testing requirements cited in the technical data package. The Government recognizes that industry has developed numerous prevention based strategies which result in reduced process variation and promote continuous process improvement initiatives. Use of alternatives to lot acceptance sampling can provide offerors the latitude of implementing prevention based programs that are suitable to their particular mode of operation.

Offerors are encouraged to submit their alternative proposals prior to award. Although the Government will entertain post award requests, there is no guarantee such requests will be accepted.

(b) Requests to use alternatives to lot acceptance sampling shall be provided to the Procuring Contracting Officer for review and approval or disapproval. Such requests shall include:

(1) Identification of the specific inspections and tests to be reduced or eliminated.

(2) A description of your prevention based program. This should include such topics as a training program and the performance of audits.

(3) A description of the tools used to monitor and control the specific processes being evaluated. This should include such topics as criteria for determining out of control conditions and procedures to be used when an out of control condition is detected.

(4) The results of a process performance study, and if available, the results of a process capability study.

(5) For SPC data to be used as an alternative to lot acceptance sampling, the following conditions shall be met:

(i) The process is in a state of statistical control using Statistical Process Control (SPC) control chart methods.

(ii) Variable data: for Critical characteristics a CPK =/> 2.00 (or equivalent capability) is achieved; for Major characteristics a

CPK =/> 1.33 (or equivalent capability) is achieved.

(iii) Attribute data: for Critical Characteristics a process average of 100% of the product conforming to the specification; for

Major Characteristics a process average of 99.9937% of the product conforming to the specification.

(c) Proposals offered after award. The Contracting Officer is responsible for accepting or rejecting the alternate lot acceptance procedure submitted by the Contractor. The Contractor may submit an alternate lot acceptance procedure at any time during the performance of this contract. The Contracting Officer is responsible for accepting or rejecting the alternate procedure within 30 days of receipt. If the Government needs more time to evaluate the alternate procedure, the Contracting Officer shall notify the Contractor in writing, giving the reasons and the anticipated decision date. The Contractor may withdraw its proposal at any time prior to its incorporation by contract modification. Because offerors may withdraw their proposal at any time, the Contracting Officer's failure to timely accept or reject the proposal shall not constitute grounds for claim against the Government. Any proposed and accepted procedure must be incorporated by contract modification. If the alternate procedure is not accepted, the Contracting Officer shall provide the Contractor with written notification, explaining the reasons for rejection.

(d) Any equitable adjustment resulting from approval of an alternate lot acceptance procedure described in paragraph (c) above will be handled in accordance with the Changes clause of this contract.

(e) Until notification is received, the Contractor is required to perform under this contract in accordance with the requirements herein, including lot acceptance inspection and testing.

Interchangeability of Components

(a) DESIGN CHANGES TO ITEMS NOT UNDER GOVERNMENT DESIGN CONTROL. Once the Government accepts the first production test item, or accepts the first end item you deliver, (whichever comes first) you must not make design changes to any item or part that is not under

Government design control.

(b) WHEN THE POLICY CAN BE WAIVED. The Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) will consider waiving this policy at your request. If your request reaches the PCO after the first production item test has been performed, then we may conduct another first production test at your expense.

(c) PRODUCTION OR DELIVERY DELAYS. Any production or delivery delays caused by this retesting will not be the basis for:

(1) an "excusable delay" as defined in the DEFAULT clause of this contract.

(2) be the basis for an increase in contract price or delivery schedule extension.
