(b) These drawings DO NOT cover intermediate drawings/specifications or steps in the manufacturing process. As a result, even if all the dimensions and tolerances specified in the engineering design drawing for each individual part are met, 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 agrees that he has obtained all specifications and drawings necessary to manufacture the items being solicited in accordance with the TDP including all incorporated specifications and drawings. The contractor is responsible for having all drawings and specifications. 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 Contracting Officer or Contract Specialist prior to the solicitation closing date.

(e) Failure to produce an end item with a cumulative fit that conforms to Government drawings, specifications or other supplemental manufacturing documentation, will result in the Contractor being responsible for correcting this condition at no additional cost to the

Government and no delivery schedule extension.

C.6. ACQUISITION OF MANUFACTURER'S PART NUMBER: COMPONENTS

One or more of the drawings for part of the contract item set forth in the Schedule and in the Technical Data Package specify manufacturer's part numbers. Since complete Government technical data for such part or parts are not available, it is understood that the Contractor, by accepting this contract, agrees to furnish only the listed manufacturer's part number(s) for those components of the contract item. It is further understood and agreed that references to manufacturer's part numbers herein shall be deemed to include all changes or revisions thereto which the approved manufacturer has made effective as of the first date of delivery of any of the items under this contract; provided, that no change or revision that affects the interchangeability (ability to be interchanged with previous parts and to match with all mating parts when assembled) of the listed manufacturer's part shall be incorporated into the contract item without the prior written approval of the Procuring Contracting Officer.

C.7. CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT DOCUMENTATION

The Contractor may submit Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs), Requests for Variance (RFVs), and Notices of Revision (NORs) for the requirements in the Government-provided Technical Data Package (TDP).
