The Contractor must notify the Contracting Officer of certification forfeitures within five calendar days, report missing or cannibalized components within ten working days, and submit Beyond Economical Repair (BER) determinations in writing with detailed cost breakdowns. Service bulletins and modifications require prior written approval from the USCG Contracting Officer and are negotiated separately on a case-by-case basis.
