****The Defense appropriations and authorization acts and other statutes (including what is commonly referred to as "The Berry Amendment") impose restrictions on the DoD's acquisition of foreign products and services.  Generally, Clothing and Textile items (as defined in DFARS clause 252.225-7012) and "specialty metals" (as defined in DFARS clause 252.225-7014), including the materials and components thereof (other than sensors, electronics, or other items added to, and not normally associated with clothing), must be grown, reprocessed, reused, melted or produced in the United States, its possessions or Puerto Rico, unless one of the DFARS 225.7002-2 exceptions applies.

 

 

NON-GFM

The Government has recently changed its procedures regarding Government Furnished Material (GFM). GFM will no longer be provided to Contractors that are awarded contracts for end item dress clothing contracts.  The Government will still make available to the Contractor, for use in connection with and under the terms of this contract, the material set forth below, and the Contractor shall utilize such materials in the furnishing of supplies hereunder.  All other types of materials required in the performance of this contract shall be furnished by the Contractor. 

 

Type of Material:  MC Green Cloth Sh #2212 (8305-01-247-6550)

 

It is now the responsibility of the Contractor to purchase the material listed above from DLA Troop Support as needed.  The Government shall be the sole source of the supply of the materials listed above and only such material obtained from the Government under this contract may be used in the performance of this contract. 

 

PRICING

The material will be priced at the current DLA Troop Support contract price for the material being purchased with an additional 2% inflation added on for each option year.  The material price will be listed in the solicitation and the Contractor is required to submit pricing inclusive of the material price (CMT + Material price).   The Contractor can purchase any amount of cloth desired that does not exceed 2% of the total yardage required to produce the item based on the Government BOM.  In order not to affect planning and the purchase of cloth by the Government, unlimited quantities of cloth cannot be sold to the Contractor.  In the event that the Contractor would like material in excessive quantities, defined as purchasing more than 2% of the total unit allowance determined by the Government BOM for that delivery order, the Contractor may submit a request for the excess material.  Depending on fabric inventory levels, the Contracting Officer may, at his or her discretion, approve the request for some or all of the excessive quantities. 

 

 

PAYMENT

Upon the delivery of end items, the Contractor will be paid the agreed upon unit price for the contract.  It is the responsibility of the Contractor to pay the balance owed to the Government for the material as end items are shipped and payments are received.  The Contractor will receive a bill from DFAS for the amount of the cloth purchased that will outline the procedures for payment.  A copy of the bill must be submitted with every payment.  The Contractor will only receive one bill and must make copies of it if incremental payments will be made.  This ensures there is a copy of the bill linking every incremental payment made.  The balance due for the purchase of the cloth must be paid within 180 days after the date of the bill for the purchase of the material.  In the case that delivery schedules have been extended, the Government may extend the payment terms beyond 180 days. The Contractor will have a continuing balance owed to the Government for the material until end items are shipped and payments are received by the Contractor and made to the Government.  In the case that a Contractor makes a late payment or no payment at all, a standard rate of interest will be charged to the Contractor's account which is determined by DFAS.   Failure to make payment may also impact the placement of future delivery orders on this contract and will be considered as a part of any future assessment of past performance.  Final payment on this contract will be withheld until all material is paid for.  Note that once the sale is made for the cloth, the Contractor assumes all responsibility for the cloth including care and safety.
