(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.

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 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 Contract Management Office (CMO) will enter the appropriate data 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.
