SPECIAL CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS

H-1. BAR CODE MARKINGS

Bar Code Markings are required in accordance with the latest revision of MIL-STD-129 and ISO/IEC 16388 - Information Technology -

Automatic Identification and Data Capture Techniques - Bar Code Symbology Specification - Code 39.

H-2. CALIBRATION

The calibration of Test, Measurement and Diagnostic Equipment shall be in accordance with American National Standards Institute/National

Conference of Standards Laboratories (ANSI/NCSL) Z540-3-2006 (General Requirements for Calibration Laboratories and Measuring and Test

Equipment) or ISO 10012:2003 (Quality Assurance Requirements for Measuring Equipment). Terminology shall be as defined by International

Organization for Standardization (ISO) 8402, Quality Management and Quality Assurance - Vocabulary.

H-3. DEFENSE PRIORITY AND ALLOCATIONS SYSTEM (DPAS) RATED AWARDS

Defense Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) Rated Awards (JUNE 2025).

A DPAS rated order indicates the priority the contractor must give to the performance of the award. There are two priority ratings: "DX" and "DO". All "DX" rated orders have equal priority with each other and take preference over "DO" rated orders and unrated orders. All

"DO" rated orders have equal priority with each other and take preference over unrated orders. (see 15 CFR 700.11 and DoDM 4400.1-M).

Mandatory Contractor Performance Scheduling:

A contractor must schedule operations, including the acquisition of all needed production items, in a timely manner to satisfy the delivery requirements of each DPAS rated order. Additionally, contractors are required to use DPAS rated orders with their U.S.

suppliers to obtain items needed to fill rated orders (15 CFR 700.15). Contractors may also use DPAS rated orders to obtain replacements of inventoried items used to fill rated orders (see 15 CFR 700.17(b)). Modifying production or delivery schedules is necessary only when required delivery dates for a rated order cannot otherwise be met. Since "DX" indicates the highest rated order, the manufacturer will schedule its production before processing other lower or unrated orders. "DX" rated orders must be given production preference over "DO" rated orders and unrated orders if necessary to meet required delivery dates, even if this requires the diversion of items being processed or ready for delivery against unrated orders. Similarly, "DO" rated orders must be given preference over unrated orders. If an accepted rated order of equal priority status conflicts with other accepted rated orders of equal priority status, the contractor must prioritize the rated orders in the sequence in which the rated orders are to be delivered or performed (see 15 CFR 700.14).

Contractor Acceptance of a DPAS rated order:

Contractors receiving an award that includes a DPAS rating shall advise DLA via the post award mailbox (DLAHSVPostAwardTeam@dla.mil), if they cannot perform in accordance with the requirements of the applied DPAS rating. When rejecting an order in full, communication to the contracting officer must include a detailed reason for rejection. If the order can be fulfilled at a later date, the contractor must provide, a) the earliest possible delivery date, b) a detailed reason why the awarded delivery date cannot be met (e.g. reason should not simply state a production delay) and c) an offer to accept the order based on that date. Contractors must advise DLA within fifteen

(15) working days after receipt of a "DO" rated order, and within ten (10) working days after receipt of a "DX" rated order if they cannot perform in accordance with the DPAS rating. Contractors that do not contact DLA are self-attesting that they acknowledge receipt of the award and will conform to the DPAS rating requirement. If the prescribed response time has passed and the contractor learns that shipment or performance will be delayed, the contractor is still required to notify DLA immediately.

Special Priority Assistance:

Preferential scheduling is a must for DPAS rated orders (see 15 CFR 700.14). If a contractor learns that a shipment or performance will be delayed after the allotted response time has passed or any other issue arises that will affect deliveries during the duration of the contract, the contractor is required to notify DLA immediately through the use of Form BIS-999, Special Priorities Assistance (SPA).

Deviations from schedules cannot be approved without the completion and submission of this form. Once submitted, DLA and its customers will discuss the SPA for approval. The Department of Commerce requires an approved BIS-999 prior to reprioritizing DPAS rated orders and its schedules (See 15 CFR 700.50). Please contact DLA post award for any SPA questions or concerns.

H-4. ENGINEERING CHG PROPOSAL, VALUE ENG CHG PROPOSAL, REQUEST FOR VARIANCE, ENG RELEASE RECORDS, NOTICE OF REVISION, AND SPECIFICATION

CHG NOTICE PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Contractor initiated Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), Value Engineering Change Proposals (VECPs), 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 I 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

10 38

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

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 DD Form 1692, 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 DD Form 1692 (page 1 only). Supplemental pages may be used with the form as necessary. The responsible Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA) Contract

Management Office (CMO) will validate data entries in Block 5 "Class of ECP", Block 6 "Priority", and Block 8 "Justification Codes."

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 RFV. RFVs shall be prepared using DD Form 1694.

e. Each ECP and 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/RFV proposal.

f. Classification of RFVs.

(1) Major RFVs. RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as major when the 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 RFVs. RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as critical when the 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 RFVs. RFVs written against CIs shall be designated as minor when the RFV consists of acceptance of an item having a nonconformance with contract or configuration documentation which does not involve any of the factors listed above in paragraphs f(1) or g(2), or when there is a departure from a requirement classified as minor in the contractual documentation.

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

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

i. 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.

j. Times allowed for technical decisions for ECP and RFV proposals will be worked out via mutual agreement between the Contractor and the Government.

k. 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.

l. The Contractor shall utilize DD Form 2617, "Engineering Release Record" (ERR) to release new or revised configuration documentation to the Government for approval.

m. The Contractor shall utilize DD Form 1695, "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 preferred method of submittal is digitally as a single file in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF). Unless otherwise specified, alternate methods of submittal shall be proposed to and authorized by the PCO prior to submittal. If the hardcopy method is requested and approved, 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. Any unresolved differences between the ACO and the

Contractor concerning ECPs, VECPs, or RFVs will be submitted to the PCO for resolution.

4. Distribution.

11 38

Name of Offeror or Contractor:

PIIN/SIIN MOD/AMD

(a) Electronic Distribution. The preferred method of distribution for unclassified is through the email or DOD safe site

(https://safe.apps.mil) addressed to the PCO. Classified material shall be distributed via SIPERNET or by classified email as determined by the PCO. Microsoft Word is required for use with the transmittal letter (E-mail). Required forms will be attached to the E-mail.

5. Alternate Format, Submittal or Distribution Process.

Proposals may be prepared in a different format, submitted using a different submittal process or distributed in a different manner than specified in paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 above, so long as the alternate approach is in accordance with a government approved configuration management plan governed by this contract or the PCO authorizes the alternate format, submittal, or distribution process.

6. Government Acceptance.

Acceptance of a proposal by the Government shall be affected by the issuance of a change order or execution of a supplemental agreement incorporating the proposal into the contract unless the PCO authorizes another method of acceptance. The Government will notify the
