Acceptance of the data deliverable does not signify "technical approval" of the change proposed by the deliverable and should not be interpreted as authorizing the Contractor to proceed with the work proposed by the change. Disposition of the change (approval/disapproval) will follow acceptance of the CDRL at the Governments sole discretion. Incorporation of an approved RFV or ECP will require execution of a contract modification.

C.3.1.7 The Contractor should direct questions regarding the status of an ECP or RFV to the Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO), copy to the Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO).

C.3.1.8 The submission of an ECP/RFV/NOR does not affect the required delivery date of the contract.

C.4.2. Manufacturing Process Changes. A change in the process flow reviewed by the Government during inspection, such as combining operations or using additional/different equipment, constitutes a manufacturing process change. Any change in location or ownership of the plant where a previously qualified product was manufactured requires reevaluation of the qualification and approval from the

Contracting Officer. Routine maintenance and the switching of comparable equipment are not considered a process change. The contractor

(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.
