(3) Any supplies or parts thereof, corrected or furnished in replacement under this clause, shall also be subject to the terms of this clause to the same extent as supplies initially delivered. The warranty, with respect to supplies or parts thereof, shall be equal in duration to that in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause and shall run from the date of delivery of the corrected or replaced supplies.

(4) All implied warranties of merchantability and "fitness for a particular purpose" are excluded from any obligation contained in this contract.

(c) Remedies available to the Government. (1) The Contracting Officer shall give written notice to the Contractor of any breach of warranties in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause within 30 calendar days after discovery of the defect.

(2) Within a reasonable time after the notice, the Contracting Officer may either--

(D) Need not use the same lot size as on original inspection or reconstitute the original inspection lots.

(ii) Within a reasonable time after notice of any breach of the warranties specified in paragraph (b)(1) of this clause, the Contracting Officer may exercise one or more of the following options:

(A) Fails to make redelivery of the corrected or replaced supplies within the time established for their return; or

(B) Fails either to accept return of the nonconforming supplies or fails to make progress after their return to correct or replace them so as to endanger performance of the delivery schedule, and in either of these circumstances does not cure such failure within a period of 10 days (or such longer period as the Contracting Officer may authorize in writing) after receipt of notice from the Contracting Officer specifying such failure.

(ii) Instead of correction or replacement by the Government, the Contracting Officer may require an equitable adjustment of the contract price.

The Government is entitled to reimbursement from the Contractor, or from the proceeds of such disposal, for the reasonable expenses of the care and disposition of the nonconforming supplies, as well as for excess costs incurred or to be incurred.

(5) The rights and remedies of the Government provided in this clause are in addition to and do not limit any rights afforded to the Government by any other clause of this contract.

(6) The Contractor shall be liable for the reasonable costs of disassembly and/or reassembly of larger items when it is necessary to remove the supplies to be inspected and/or returned for correction or replacement.

The term "status" as indicated below must include due date and whether item has been submitted or was accomplished. Assemble approved information in a binder and turn over to the Government upon acceptance of the work. The construction warranty period will begin on the date of Main Unit acceptance and continue for the full product warranty period. Include within the warranty management plan, but not limited to, the following:

a. Roles and responsibilities of all personnel associated with the warranty process, including points of contact and telephone numbers within the organizations of the Contractors, subcontractors, manufacturers or suppliers involved.

b. Listing and status of delivery of all Certificates of Warranty for extended warranty items.

c. A list for each warranted equipment, item, feature of construction or system indicating:

(1) Name of item.

(2) Model and serial numbers.

(3) Location where installed.

(4) Name and phone numbers of manufacturers or suppliers.

(5) Names, addresses and telephone numbers of sources of spare parts.

(6) Warranties and terms of warranty. Include one-year overall warranty of construction. Items which have extended warranties must be indicated with separate warranty expiration dates.

(7) Cross-reference to warranty certificates as applicable.

(8) Starting point and duration of warranty period.

(9) Summary of maintenance procedures required to continue the warranty in force.

(10) Cross-reference to specific pertinent Operation and Maintenance manuals.

(11) Organization, names and phone numbers of persons to call for warranty service.

(12) Typical response time and repair time expected for various warranted equipment.

d. Procedure and status of tagging of all equipment covered by extended warranties.

1.22.2 Pre-Warranty Conference

Prior to contract completion, and at a time designated by the Contracting Officer, meet with the Contracting Officer to develop a mutual understanding with respect to the requirements of this SECTION.

Communication procedures for Contractor notification of construction warranty defects, priorities with respect to the type of defect, reasonable time required for Contractor response, and other details deemed necessary by the Contracting Officer for the execution of the construction warranty will be established/reviewed at this meeting. In connection with these requirements and at the time of the Contractor's quality control completion inspection, furnish the name, telephone number and address of a licensed and bonded company which is authorized to initiate and pursue construction warranty work action on behalf of the Contractor. This point of contact shall be located within the local service area of the warranted construction, be continuously available, and be responsive to Government inquiry on warranty work action and status. This requirement does not relieve the Contractor of any of its responsibilities in connection with other portions of this provision.

GENERATOR REWIND

PART 1 GENERAL

1.1 GENERAL

This SECTION covers the technical specifications for supplying ten (10) new stator windings, including the bars, circuit rings, blocking, winding materials, all accessories specified herein, and spare parts. Work includes removing the old windings from the stator of ten (10) main units, preparing the stators of ten (10) units for rewinding, and installing the new stator windings and accessories in these ten (10) units. It also covers inspecting, cleaning, testing, and painting the rotors of these ten

(10) units. In addition, the Contractor shall furnish and install new wires for the lighting inside the generator housing. At the option of the Government, work would include un-stacking one stator core, re-stacking it with Government-furnished stator laminations, and furnishing one new spare core. Windings provided are for Units 1-4 and 7-12 only.
