above, will be considered nonresponsive and rejected.

(b) Attention is directed to the Contract Award provision of the solicitation that provides that a written award or acceptance of offer mailed, or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror, results in a binding contract. The Government will mail or otherwise furnish to the offeror an award or notice of award not later than the day award is dated. Therefore, the offeror should compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the

Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails. However, the Government will evaluate an offer that proposes delivery based on the

Contractors date of receipt of the contract or notice of award by adding

(1) five calendar days for delivery of the award through the ordinary mails, or

(2) one working day if the solicitation states that the contract or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term working day excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.) If, as so computed, the offered delivery date is later than the required delivery date, the offer will be considered nonresponsive and rejected.

(End of Clause)

10 252.211-7006 PASSIVE RADIO FREQUENCY IDENTIFICATION DEC/2017

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause--

"Advance shipment notice" means an electronic notification used to list the contents of a shipment of goods as well as additional information relating to the shipment, such as passive radio frequency dentification (RFID) or item unique identification (IUID) information, order information, product description, physical characteristics, type of packaging, marking, carrier information, and configuration of goods within the transportation equipment.

"Bulk commodities" means the following commodities, when shipped in rail tank cars, tanker trucks, trailers, other bulk wheeled conveyances, or pipelines:

(1) Sand.

(2) Gravel.

(3) Bulk liquids (water, chemicals, or petroleum products).

(4) Ready-mix concrete or similar construction materials.

(5) Coal or combustibles such as firewood.

(6) Agricultural products such as seeds, grains, or animal feed.

"Case" means either a MIL-STD-129 defined exterior container within a palletized unit load or a MIL-STD-129 defined individual shipping container.

"Electronic Product Code\TM\ (EPC)" means an identification scheme for universally identifying physical objects via RFID tags and other means. The standardized EPC\TM\ data consists of an EPC\TM\ (or EPC\TM\ identifier) that uniquely identifies an individual object, as well as an optional filter value when judged to be necessary to enable effective and efficient reading of the EPC\TM\ tags. In addition to this standardized data, certain classes of EPC\TM\ tags will allow user-defined data. The EPC\TM\ Tag Data Standards will define the length and position of this data, without defining its content.

"EPCglobal" means a subscriber-driven organization comprised of industry leaders and organizations focused on creating global standards for the adoption of passive RFID technology.

"Exterior container" means a MIL-STD-129 defined container, bundle, or assembly that is sufficient by reason of material, design, and construction to protect unit packs and intermediate containers and their contents during shipment and storage. It can be a unit pack or

10 43

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

a container with a combination of unit packs or intermediate containers. An exterior container may or may not be used as a shipping container.

"Palletized unit load" means a MIL-STD-129 defined quantity of items, packed or unpacked, arranged on a pallet in a specified manner and secured, strapped, or fastened on the pallet so that the whole palletized load is handled as a single unit. A palletized or skidded load is not considered to be a shipping container. A loaded 463L System pallet is not considered to be a palletized unit load. Refer to the

Defense Transportation Regulation, DoD 4500.9-R, Part II, Chapter 203, for marking of 463L System pallets.

"Passive RFID tag" means a tag that reflects energy from the reader/interrogator or that receives and temporarily stores a small amount of energy from the reader/interrogator signal in order to generate the tag response. The only acceptable tags are EPC Class 1 passive

RFID tags that meet the EPCglobal\TM\ Class 1 Generation 2 standard.

"Radio frequency identification (RFID)" means an automatic identification and data capture technology comprising one or more reader/interrogators and one or more radio frequency transponders in which data transfer is achieved by means of suitably modulated inductive or radiating electromagnetic carriers.

"Shipping container" means a MIL-STD-129 defined exterior container that meets carrier regulations and is of sufficient strength, by reason of material, design, and construction, to be shipped safely without further packing (e.g., wooden boxes or crates, fiber and metal drums, and corrugated and solid fiberboard boxes).

(b)(1) Except as provided in paragraph (b)(2) of this clause, the Contractor shall affix passive RFID tags, at the case- and palletized-unit-load packaging levels, for shipments of items that--

(i) Are in any of the following classes of supply, as defined in DoD Manual 4140.01, Volume 6, DoD Supply Chain Materiel Management

Procedures: Materiel Returns, Retention, and Disposition:

(A) Subclass of Class I--Packaged operational rations.

(B) Class II--Clothing, individual equipment, tentage, organizational tool kits, hand tools, and administrative and housekeeping supplies and equipment.

(C) Class IIIP--Packaged petroleum, lubricants, oils, preservatives, chemicals, and additives.

(D) Class IV--Construction and barrier materials.

(E) Class VI--Personal demand items (non-military sales items).

(G) Class IX--Repair parts and components including kits, assemblies and subassemblies, reparable and consumable items required for maintenance support of all equipment, excluding medical-peculiar repair parts; and

(ii) Are being shipped to one of the locations listed at http://www.acq.osd.mil/log/sci/RFID_ship-to-locations.html or to--

(A) A location outside the contiguous United States when the shipment has been assigned Transportation Priority 1, or to--

(B) The following location(s) deemed necessary by the requiring activity:

Contract line, subline, or exhibit Location name City State DoDAAC line item number

0001AA DLA DISTRIBUTION NEW CUMBERLAND PA W25G1U

0001AB DLA DISTRIBUTION NEW CUMBERLAND PA W25G1U

(2) The following are excluded from the requirements of paragraph (b)(1) of this clause:

(i) Shipments of bulk commodities.

(ii) Shipments to locations other than Defense Distribution Depots when the contract includes the clause at FAR 52.213-1, Fast

Payment Procedures.

(c) The Contractor shall--

11 43

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

(1) Ensure that the data encoded on each passive RFID tag are globally unique (i.e., the tag ID is never repeated across two or more

RFID tags) and conforms to the requirements in paragraph (d) of this clause;

(2) Use passive tags that are readable; and

(3) Ensure that the passive tag is affixed at the appropriate location on the specific level of packaging, in accordance with MIL-STD-

129 (Section 4.9.2) tag placement specifications.

(d) Data syntax and standards. The Contractor shall encode an approved RFID tag using the instructions provided in the EPC\TM\ Tag Data

Standards in effect at the time of contract award. The EPC\TM\ Tag Data Standards are available at http://www.epcglobalinc.org/standards/ .

(1) If the Contractor is an EPCglobal\TM\ subscriber and possesses a unique EPC\TM\ company prefix, the Contractor may use any of the identifiers and encoding instructions described in the most recent EPC\TM\ Tag Data Standards document to encode tags.

(2) If the Contractor chooses to employ the DoD identifier, the Contractor shall use its previously assigned Commercial and Government

Entity (CAGE) code and shall encode the tags in accordance with the tag identifier details located at http://www.acq.osd.mil/log/sci/ait.html . If the Contractor uses a third-party packaging house to encode its tags, the CAGE code of the third-party packaging house is acceptable.

(3) Regardless of the selected encoding scheme, the Contractor with which the Department holds the contract is responsible for ensuring that the tag ID encoded on each passive RFID tag is globally unique, per the requirements in paragraph (c)(1) of this clause.

(e) Advance shipment notice. The Contractor shall use Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF), as required by DFARS 252.232-7003, Electronic

Submission of Payment Requests, to electronically submit advance shipment notice(s) with the RFID tag ID(s) (specified in paragraph (d) of this clause) in advance of the shipment in accordance with the procedures at https://wawf.eb.mil/ .

(End of clause)

SPECIFICATION CHG NOTICE PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS________________________________________________________________

1. Contractor initiated Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), Value Engineering Change Proposals (VECPs), Request for Deviations (RFDs), and Request for Variance (RFVs), collectively referred to as "proposals", shall be prepared, submitted and distributed in accordance with paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 below except as specified in paragraph 5 below.

2. Format.

a. Class 1 ECPs require the "Long Form Procedure" for documenting the change and describing the effects of the change on the suitability and supportability of the Configuration Item (CI). Class I ECPs should be limited to those that are necessary or offer significant benefit to the Government. Class I ECPs are those that affect the performance, reliability, maintainability, survivability, weight, balance, moment of inertia, interface characteristics, electromagnetic characteristics, or other technical requirements in the specifications and drawings. Class I ECPs also include those changes that affect Government

Furnished Equipment, safety, compatibility, retrofit, operation and maintenance manuals, interchangeability, substitutability, replaceability, source control specifications and drawings, costs, guarantees or warranties, deliveries, or schedules. Class II

ECPs are those that do not affect form, fit and function, cost, or schedule of the system CI and do not meet the other criteria described above for Class I ECPs.

b. Long Form Procedure: Class I changes to the CI require that RDMR Form 523, pages 1 through 7 (as applicable), be prepared.

Use of this procedure assures that all effects of the change on the CI are properly addressed and documented to the necessary detail to allow proper evaluation of the proposed change.

c. Short Form Procedure: ECPs and VECPs , which meet the requirements of Class II ECPs, shall be prepared using RDMR Form 523

(page 1 only). Supplemental pages may be used with the form as necessary. The responsible Contract Management Office (CMO) will enter the appropriate data in Block 5 "Class of ECP", Block 6 "Justification Codes", and Block 7 "Priority."

d. The Contractor shall not manufacture items for acceptance by the Government that incorporate a known departure from requirements, unless the Government has approved an RFD. RFDs shall be prepared using RDMR Form 527 or RDMR Form 530 (Type I, see block 5 of the form.)

e. The Contractor shall not submit items for acceptance by the Government that include a known departure from the requirements, unless the Government has approved a RFV. RFVs shall be prepared using RDMR Form 528.

f. Each ECP, RFD or RFV shall be accompanied by a written and signed evaluation prepared by the responsible Defense Contract

Management Agency (DCMA) technical representative. The DCMA written evaluation shall be considered part of the ECP/RFD/RFV proposal.

g. Classification of RFDs/RFVs.

(1) Major RFDs/RFVs. RFDs/RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as major when the RFD/RFV consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation involving health;

performance; interchangeability; reliability; survivability; maintainability; effective use or operation; weight;

appearance (when a factor); or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as major in the contractual documentation.

(2) Critical RFDs/RFVs. RFDs/RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as critical when the RFD/RFV consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation involving safety or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as critical in the contractual documentation.

(3) Minor RFDs/RFVs. RFDs/RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as minor when the RFD/RFV consists of

16 43

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation which does not involve any of the factors listed above in paragraphs g(1) or g(2), or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as minor in the contractual documentation.

h. Proposals shall include sufficient technical data to describe all changes from existing contract requirements.

i. Proposals shall include sufficient justification for making the change, including a statement of contract impact, if the change is not authorized.

j. Proposals for ECPs shall set forth a "not to exceed" price and delivery adjustment acceptable to the Contractor if the

Government subsequently approves the proposal. If approved, the equitable increase shall not exceed this amount.

k. Times allowed for technical decisions for ECP and RFD/RFV proposals will be worked out via mutual agreement between the

Contractor and the Government.

l. The Contractor shall submit, concurrent with the ECP, a separate AMSAM-RD Form 525, "Specification Change Notice" (SCN), for each specification that would require revision if the ECP were approved.

m. Proposals for VECPs shall set forth a "not less than" price and delivery adjustment acceptable to the Contractor if the

Government subsequently approves the proposal. If approved, the savings shall not be less than this amount.

n. The Contractor shall utilize RDMR Form 526, "Engineering Release Record" (ERR) to release new or revised configuration documentation to the Government for approval.

o. The Contractor shall utilize RDMR Form 524, "Notice of Revision" (NOR) to describe the exact change(s) to configuration documentation specified as a data requirement in the contract. The Contractor shall describe the change using sub- sections entitled "WAS" to describe the current contractual technical requirement and "IS" to describe the proposed new requirement.

3. Submittal. The Contractor shall submit two (2) copies of each proposal to the responsible Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO).

One (1) copy of each proposal shall be returned to the Contractor within (5) working days after receipt by the ACO, stating whether or not the proposal is in compliance with this provision.
