52.211-8 Time of Delivery.       As prescribed	in 11.404(a)(2), insert	the following clause:          Time of Delivery (June 1997)                                       (a) 						            The	Government requires delivery to be made according to the following	schedule:                Required Delivery	Schedule[*Contracting	Officer insert specific details*]Item	No.                            Quantity                            Within	Days After Date of ContractThe Government will evaluate	equally, as regards time of delivery, offers that propose delivery	of each quantity within the applicable delivery period specified	above. Offers that propose delivery that will not clearly fall within	the applicable required delivery period specified above, will be	considered nonresponsive and rejected. The Government reserves the right	to award under either the required delivery schedule or the proposed	delivery schedule, when an offeror offers an earlier delivery schedule	than required above. If the offeror proposes no other delivery schedule,	the required delivery schedule above will apply.                Offeror’s Proposed Delivery ScheduleItem	No.                            Quantity                            Within	Days After Date of Contract(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 Contractor’s 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.                                 (End of clause)          *Alternate I*                (Apr 1984).	If the delivery schedule is expressed in terms of specific calendar	dates or specific periods and is based on an assumed date of award,	the contracting officer may substitute the following paragraph (b)	for paragraph (b) of the basic clause. The time may be expressed	by substituting "on or before"; "during the months __________";	or "not sooner than __________ or later than ___________"	as headings for the third column of paragraph (a) the basic clause.             (b)	The delivery dates or specific periods above are based on the assumption	that the Government will make award by __ [Contracting Officer insert date].	Each delivery date in the delivery schedule above will be extended	by the number of calendar days after the above date that the contract	is in fact awarded. 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. 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.                                       *Alternate	II*                (Apr 1984). If the delivery schedule is expressed	in terms of specific calendar dates or specific periods and is based	on an assumed date the contractor will receive notice of award,	the contracting officer may substitute the following paragraph             (b)	The delivery dates or specific periods above are based on the assumption	that the successful offeror will receive notice of award by__ [Contracting	Officer insert date]. Each delivery date in the delivery	schedule above will be extended by the number of calendar days after	the above date that the Contractor receives notice of award; provided,	that the Contractor promptly acknowledges receipt of notice of award.                                       *Alternate	III*                (Apr 1984). If the delivery schedule is to be based	on the actual date the contractor receives a written notice of award,	the contracting officer may delete paragraph (b) of the basic clause.	The time may be expressed by substituting "within days after the	date of receipt of a written notice of award" as the heading for	the third column of paragraph (a) of the basic clause.    **Parent topic:** 52.211 [Reserved]
