Inspection/Acceptance: Contractor paid USDA-AMS Origin end-item inspection is required for all characteristics herein. 

Government acceptance will be at destination for identity, count, and condition for all terms and conditions of the contract.

 

In addition to the terms and conditions of Solicitation SPE3S1-19-Q-0004, which are incorporated into this contract, the 

following clauses have been updated. 

 

 

 

CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS 

1. PACKAGING: 

 

Preservation, packaging, etc. furnished by suppliers shall meet or exceed the following requirements: 

Unit packages shall be designed and constructed so that the contents of each package shall be protected from damage during 

shipment and storage. Unit packages shall also be able to withstand subsequent handling. Unit packs susceptible to corrosion or 

deterioration shall be protected by preservative coatings. Items requiring protection from physical damage, or which are fragile 

in nature (i.e., glass) shall be protected by wrapping, cushioning, etc. or other means to mitigate damage during handling and 

shipment. If screw caps are used, they shall be secured to the bottles with a band of plastic shrink film or plastic tape. All bottles 

shall be hermetically sealed (inner seal) and secured to withstand any position in the shipping container without leaking. 

 

2. TRACEABILITY: 

 

In order to facilitate an effective Traceability Program for the end-item Group Ration Program, the contractor shall ensure that 

each primary container (unit pack) and intermediate container, if required, has a lot number and/or Date of Pack (DOP). The date 

of pack is equal to the date of production. The date of pack on the Placards shall be identical to the material code on each 

individual case. These package codes shall be permanent and legible. Failure to comply will result in delayed payment.

 

Use of the Julian Date for the lot number and a time stamp (hour and minute of filling/sealing) is preferred. For example, (1296 

12:15), 1296 = October 23, 2011 and 12:15 representing the time of filling/sealing. If the contractor's lot identification is of their 

own coding, the contractor shall provide the coding information for the primary containers and the contract data markings upon 

delivery. Package codes per case lot number shall be identified on the accompanying iRapt Report/Bill of Lading/DD250 upon 

delivery. 

 

Additionally, the contractor shall ensure that Traceability Records include identifying ALL ingredients and ALL sources for 

those ingredients. This shall be accomplished for each item, brand, and component that is shipped to the Defense Depot 

(Assembler) for the Unitized Group Ration Programs. This information shall be made available within 24 hours. 

 

3. DATE OF PACK: 

 

Acceptance will be limited to product processed and packed subsequent to date of award of delivery order. Additionally, all 

shipments of components/product from a producer to destination/assembly points shall not be older than 60 days at time of 

shipment. 

 

4. MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS: 

 

Compliance with the provisions contained in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations Part 110 “Current Good Manufacturing 

Practice in Manufacturing, Packaging or Holding Human Food,” and all regulations referenced herein, is required. In addition, 
CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 5 OF 29 PAGES

SPE3S1-20-D-5001

Form (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

the contractor is required to comply with all the provisions contained within specific parts of the Code of Federal Regulations. 

For example, low-acid canned food manufacturers, Part 110 and 113 are applicable. 

 

The Contracting Officer or any Government personnel designated by him shall be permitted entry into the contractor's and 

subcontractor's plants during performance of manufacturing operations. Except for inspection service, the Contracting Officer 

shall give prior notice of the purpose of the meetings and shall furnish dates of the visit. 

 

5. MARKING OF SHIPPING CONTAINERS AND MARKING OF UNIT LOADS: 

 

For shipments to Department of Defense Depots, all Shipping Containers and Unit Load shall be marked in accordance with 

DLA Troop Support Form 3556, entitled “Marking Instructions for Boxes, Sacks, and Unit Loads of Perishable and Semiperishable Subsistence, dated October 2010.” 

All unit loads shall be clearly marked with the following information on two adjacent sides of the load with the largest characters 

possible as follows: 

 

Unitized Ration Component 

National Stock Number 

Item Name 

Date of Pack and/or Lot Number 

Number of Shipping Containers per Pallet 

Contract Number 

Contractor's Name and Address 

Inspection Test Date (ITD) * 

*The Inspection Test Date, the expected shelf life is found in the applicable solicitation/contract. To calculate the ITD, add the 

shelf life value to the month/year date of pack. Example, if the Date of Pack is June 2007, and the shelf life is 36 months (3 

years), then the ITD is computed as follows: 6/07 + 3 years = 6/10. If labels are used, they shall be permanently affixed with 

water-resistant adhesive tape. 

 

Shipments without the appropriate Shipping Container and Unit Load Markings will be rejected and returned to origin, or 

at the Contracting Officers discretion, reworked at a labor rate determined by the destination activity (not DLA Troop Support).

 

Pallets containing mixed lots will not be accepted. 

Pallets containing material labeled with mixed delivery order numbers will not be accepted. 

 

6. UNITIZATION: 

 

Unit loads shall have the shipping containers arranged on a 40 inch by 48 inch commercial wood or plywood four-way entry 

pallet, or on a 48 inch by 40 inch Grocery Manufacturers of America wood four-way entry pallet. The load shall be bonded with 

non-metallic strapping, shrink or stretch film, or others means that comply with carrier rules and regulations applicable to the 

mode of transportation (adhesive bonding is not acceptable). 

 

Bonding material shall secure the load to the pallet to form a consolidated, stable cargo which can be handled as a unit. For 

example, when strapping is used to secure the load, the straps shall pass under the top deck boards of the pallet. When stretch or 

shrink film is used, it must be applied low enough on the pallet to secure the load to the pallet. The unit load height shall not 

exceed 50 inches. 

 

Inspection of unit loads shall be in accordance with classification Type III, Class G of DLA Troop Support Form 3507 of April 

2014 entitled “Loads, Unit; Preparation of Semi-perishable Subsistence Items.” 

The unit load dimensions are 40 inches in length by 48 inches in width and 50 inches in height. These dimensions are 

exact and can be no larger than what is specified. No overhang is permitted.

7. INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT (IPM) 

 

The procedures contained in the “Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Program Requirements for Operational Rations,” of April 

2011 are required and apply to all Operational Rations components. Each contractor is to have an IPM program in place prior to 

the initiation of production of Government product. The IPM plan and the associated pesticide labels and MSDS documents are 

not to be submitted to DLA Troop Support. The contractor shall have those documents available for on-site review during a 

Quality Systems Management Visit (QSMV) or Quality Systems Compliance Audit. In addition, evidence of an insect or rodent 

infestation, or contamination involving any end item will be cause for rejection of the involved lot. IPM program requirements 

can be found on the DLA Troop Support website at: http://www.dla.mil/Portals/104/Documents/TroopSupport/Subsistence/

FoodSafety/FoodQuality/TS_ipm-cpaf_151204.pdf

topics/foodwater/ca/Pages/DoDApprovedFoodSources.aspx). 

(4) Subsistence items other than those exempt from listing in the Worldwide Directory, bearing labels reading “Distributed By”, 

“Manufactured For”, etc., are not acceptable unless the source of manufacturing/processing is indicated on the label or on 

accompanying shipment documentation. 

(5) When the Military Medical Service or other Federal agency acceptable to the Military Medical Service determines the levels 

of food safety and food defense of the establishment or its products have or may lead to product contamination or adulteration, 

the Contracting Officer will suspend the work until such conditions are remedied to the satisfaction of the appropriate inspection 

agency. Suspension of the work shall not extend the life of the contract, nor shall it be considered sufficient cause for the 

Contractor to request an extension of any delivery date. In the event the Contractor fails to correct such objectionable conditions 

within the time specified by the Contracting Officer, the Government shall have the right to terminate the contract in accordance 

with the “Default” clause of the contract. 

(b) Delivery conveyances. 

The supplies delivered under this contract shall be transported in delivery conveyances maintained to prevent tampering with 

and /or adulteration or contamination of the supplies, and if applicable, equipped to maintain a prescribed temperature. The

conditions of the delivery conveyance have led, or may lead to product contamination, adulteration, constitute a health hazard, or 

the delivery conveyance is not equipped to maintain prescribed temperatures, or the transport results in product `unfit for 

intended purpose', supplies tendered for acceptance may be rejected without further inspection. 

 

9. MISCELLANEOUS REQUIREMENTS: 

 

Compliance with the provisions contained in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations Part 110 “Current Good Manufacturing 

Practice in Manufacturing, Packaging or Holding Human Food,” and all regulations referenced herein, is required. In addition, 

the contractor is required to comply with all with the provisions contained within specific parts of the Code of Federal 

Regulations. For example, low-acid canned food manufacturers, Part 110 and 113 are applicable. 

 

 

10. REWORK OF NONCONFORMING PRODUCT PRE OR POST ACCEPTANCE 

 

Rework of Nonconforming Product: The Government QAR must be informed and provided documentation of all rework results 

when product is presented for Government verification inspection or prior to Government inspection as indicated below. 

 

A. Corrective Action (Rework/Screen Inspections) Taken Prior to Government Verification Inspection (Receipt, In-Process And 

End-Item Inspections): Unless otherwise specified below, all reworks and screening inspections conducted prior to the 

Government verification inspection do not require approval from the Government. Although the GQAR must be informed of all 

reworks, the contractor is not required to obtain approval to take corrective and preventive action as deemed necessary to ensure 

compliance with contractual requirements. For reworks requiring the Government's approval (as specified below), the contractor 

may submit a Standard Rework Procedure (SRP), for certain defects, under the contractor's documented QSP section XII - 

Corrective and Preventive Action Program. The SRPs must be specific and these must be evaluated by DLA Troop SupportFTR, and DLA Troop Support-FTRE, and approved by the applicable Contracting Officer. 

 

NOTE: All requests for rework shall be accompanied with a COMPREHENSIVE rework plan. The rework plan will include 

rational information and data that supports the rework plan and ensures the elimination of nonconforming material from the lot. 

When a contractor determines as a result of his end item inspection(s) or QSP that supplies do not conform to contractual 

requirements and the supplies cannot be reworked (such as drained weight, viscosity, piece size, residual air, etc), he has the 

alternative to request the Contracting Officer for a waiver for the nonconforming requirement. If the Contracting Officer 

approves the waiver request for a specific requirement, the written waiver approval shall be provided to the GQAR when the 

supplies are presented for Government Verification Inspection (the skip-lot inspection does not apply in this case). The GQAR 

shall inspect the supplies for compliance with all requirements of the contract, except the waived requirement. The Contracting 

Officer, in special circumstances, may request the GQAR to inspect for the non-conforming characteristics also, after the waiver 

for the nonconforming requirement has been provisionally approved, to determine severity of nonconformance only. Due to the 

type of statistical sampling cited in the contract, under no circumstances shall a lot found nonconforming by the contractor be 

inspected by the GQAR to determine conformance to a requirement that has previously been established as nonconforming by 

the contractor's inspection. After any lot's failure or rework, if the lot is reinspected, it will be both Contractor and Government 

inspected at the next higher sample size. 

 

B. The Following Reworks Must Be Coordinated with The Supervisory GQAR and Approved by The Applicable DLA Troop 

Support-FTR Office. 

 

 1. Insect or Rodent Infestation/Contamination: Reworks must be approved by DLA Troop Support-FTRE. 

 

2. Food Safety and Foreign Material: All corrective actions for product retained due to processed/unprocessed container mixups must be approved by FTR. Thermal process deviations or deviations from the preparation, formulation or critical factors 

cited in the approved process schedule must be accompanied by a detailed letter from the plant's Processing Authority. The 

involved subcode(s), the deviation, and the disposition of the product shall be clearly identified when the complete lot is 

presented for Government end item verification inspection. If the producer fails to provide enough information/data in the case 

of a deviation, the GQAR shall contact FTR for approval to proceed with the Government end item verification inspection. 
CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 9 OF 29 PAGES

SPE3S1-20-D-5001

Form (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

These requirements are in addition to applicable Code of Federal Regulations or other regulatory requirements (USDA-FSIS, 

FDA). Foreign material identified during normal in-process control actions do not require a waiver request. However, foreign 

material discovered during in-house or GQAR/USDA end item inspection is cause for rejection of the lot. Rework request that 

result from foreign material identified during end item inspection of the in-house and/or GQAR/USDA requires prior approval 

from DLA Troop Support FTR. 

 

Foreign material identified during normal in-process control actions does not require a waiver request from DLA Troop Support 

FTR, but does require USDA notification of the incident. However, foreign material discovered during the Contractor or 

GQAR/USDA end item inspection is cause for rejection of the lot. Rework requests that involve foreign material identified 

during end item inspections require approval from DLA Troop Support FTR before the rework activity can proceed. 

 

“Retesting/re-inspection/rework of product that tested positive for food borne pathogens (salmonella, e. coli, etc.) is not 

authorized.” 

 

Note: Deviations (that occur during or prior to the production of a product) from specific preparation/ formulation/ingredient 

requirements cited in the specifications shall be submitted as a request for product deviation and must be approved and 

coordinated with the Specification Preparing Activity (Natick) through the applicable Contracting Officer. 

 

3. Container Integrity Defects: All reworks due to container integrity defects noted during the producer's end item inspection 

(for critical container defects only) or Government final lot end item verification inspection, must be approved by FTR unless 

100% primary container rework of the entire lot is conducted at source. All containers exhibiting same or other container 

integrity defects must be removed during the 100% primary container rework and noted on the rework paperwork. Reworked 

lots will be inspected or re-inspected, as applicable, by the contractor at the location of the rework using the next larger sample 

size (for example, from 200 samples to 315, or if a second rework, from 315 samples to 500 samples). Rework results must be 

included with other paperwork when the lot is presented for Government end item verification inspection. 

 

 4. Second Time Reworks: All second time reworks must be approved by the applicable FTR office. 

 

 5. Nonconformances Noted During the Government End Item Verification Inspection: 

All rework requests submitted for defects noted during Government end item verification inspections must be approved by the 

applicable Contracting Officer, unless exempted under paragraph 3 above. 

 

C. Contractor's Quality History: 

 

1. Effectiveness of corrective actions (rework/screen inspections) taken by the contractor prior to Government end item 

verification inspection (receipt, in-process and contractor's end-item inspections) will be determined by the results of the end 

item verification inspection performed by the GQAR. Corrective actions taken to ensure compliance with the contractual 

requirements prior to the Government end item verification inspection will not be counted against the contractor's quality 

history. If product is found conforming during the Government end item verification inspection, the corrective action will be 

determined to have been effective. However, all requests for waivers and product deviations will be counted. 

 

2. If product is found nonconforming during the Government end item verification inspection following contractor corrective 

action for the same defect (or defect category in case of critical container defects) for which the contractor took a corrective 

action, the corrective action will be determined to have been ineffective. In addition to any action taken, the contractor must 

reevaluate their documented QSP and/or the implemented corrective and preventive action program by an internal audit and 

results must be submitted to DLA Troop Support-FTSB (Quality Systems Auditors). All corrective actions (rework/screening 

inspections, etc.) taken by the contractor due to a Government end item verification inspection rejection will be documented in 

the contractor's quality history records. 

 

NOTE: If the contractor elects to rework nonconforming product, it must be reworked and reoffered within 30 days from date of 

initial rejection. 

 

All requests for rework shall be accompanied with a comprehensive rework plan. The rework plan will include rational 
CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 10 OF 29 PAGES

SPE3S1-20-D-5001

Form (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

information and data that supports the rework plan and ensures the elimination of nonconforming material from the lot. See 

“Request for Rework, Request for Waiver, Request for Deviation, or Re-inspection of Nonconforming Supplies”. 

 

D. Request for Rework, Request for Waiver, Request for Deviation, or Re-inspection of 

Nonconforming Supplies 

 

1. When contractor inspection or QSP, or Government verification by the QAR, reveals a process deviation or 

nonconforming lot, the contractor's written request for deviation, waiver, rework or re-inspection of the nonconforming lot(s) 

must be furnished, as appropriate to the Contracting Officer and cognizant Government QAR and shall at a minimum contain the 

following: 

NOTE: Subject line should include what is being asked for (i.e.: Request for Waiver for Drain Weight of Beef Stew or Request 

for Rework for Residual Air for Apple Dessert) 

a. Type of Request: Waiver, Notification, Re-inspection, Rework 

b. Approval Required from DLA: Yes or No 

c. Contractor Name/Address 

d. Contract Number 

e. Product Name 

f. National Stock Number 

g. Batch Number(s) (If Applicable) 

h. Sublot(s) (If Applicable) 

i. Lot Number(s) 

j. Process Category (i.e. Work-progress/End Item) 

k. Quantity 

l. Specification Requirement Number (PCR, CID, etc) 

m. Sample Size; Defect; Accept/Reject 

n. Defect Classification: Critical, Major, Minor, NA 

o. Inspection Failure (Summary of non-conformances) 

p. Failure Identified: Processing, Packaging, End Item 

q. Inspector: In-plant/Contractor or USDA 

r. Date of Incident 

s. Attachments (Provide in-house, USDA worksheets, in-process data) 

t. Root Cause of nonconformance or deviation (Describe using a short detailed paragraph; Tell a story of the incident) 

u. Corrective Action (Describe using a short detailed paragraph) 

v. Preventive Action (Describe using a short detailed paragraph; if preventive action is not possible, state why) 

w. Occurrence (Has this occurred before/when; if yes, what was the date/contract/lot number of last occurrence) 

x. Estimated Cost 

y. Effect on Delivery 

z. Justification for request (What are you asking for?) 

 

NOTE: All requests for rework shall be accompanied with a COMPREHENSIVE rework plan. The rework plan will include 

rational information and data that supports the rework plan and ensures the elimination of nonconforming material from the lot. 

After any lot's failure or rework, if the lot is reinspected, it will be both Contractor and Government inspected at the next higher 

sample size. 

 

2. When a valid technical reason for re-inspection without rework is offered and permission is granted by the PCO, the 

contractor shall take corrective action to eliminate the cause of the inspection revealed failure; reinspect the non-reworked lot 

after taking the corrective action, and evaluate the results of the initial inspection and the re-inspection by means of recognized 

statistical methods. 

 

a. If the statistical tests reveal no significant difference between the results of the two inspections, acceptability will be 

based on re-inspection results. A significant difference is one that is real and not due to chance variation. Statistically, a 

difference which has a 0.05 probability of occurring by chance alone is usually considered a significant difference. 

b. If such statistical tests reveal no significant difference between the results of the two inspections, both results will be

reported to the Contracting Officer. 

1. The results of the two inspections will be averaged and acceptability will be based on whether the resulting average 

meets the requirement, when the requirement is an average (variable) requirement. 

2. The results of the initial (original) inspection will be the basis for the acceptability decision when the requirement is 

a unit (attribute) requirement. 

 

11. QUALITY ASSURANCE PROVISIONS- GOVERNMENT INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE: 

 

A. Government inspection shall also be at destination (Defense Depot) for identity, count and condition for all terms and 

conditions of the contract. This shall include but is not limited to the following 

 

a. All shipments must be accompanied by a Bill of Lading and a iRapt Report. 

b. For the purposes of Inspection/Acceptance and Shipment/Delivery, a manufacturer's “lot” shall be considered no 

greater than a single shift's production. 

c. All unit loads must be marked in accordance with DLA Troop Support 3507. 

d. All unit loads shall be stable and not exceed 50 inches high. 

e. All delivered product shall be free of defects. 

f. All shipments must contain the correct quantity as specified by DLA Troop Support. 

g. Appointments must be scheduled with the receiving activity prior to delivery. 

h. All delivered product must meet or exceed the appropriate product requirements as described in this Solicitation. 

i. All delivered products must meet the required date of pack/shelf life requirements. 

j. To determine the date of pack, any closed date code must be accompanied with documentation deciphering the closed 

product code. Date of pack on individual cases shall match date specified on placards. 

k. All delivered products must be free of insect and rodent infestation. 

 

Failure to comply with ANY of the above conditions may result in the shipment(s) being rejected and returned to origin, or at the 

Contracting Officer's discretion reworked at a labor rate determined by the destination activity (not DLA Troop Support). 

 

B. ALTERNATIVE INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS FOR SELECTED ITEMS - DLA TROOP SUPPORT - SUBSISTENCE 

(a) Optional Contractor testing of Contractor-furnished materials. 

To expedite shipment, the Contractor has the option to perform, or have performed by an independent laboratory, contractuallyrequired tests of end items or component material not specified by the U.S. Standards of Grade. The inspector for the 

Government agency having jurisdiction over ascertaining compliance may permit shipment, provided all other requirements of 

the contract are met. The designated Government inspector will select random samples of each lot of end items or component 

material for verification testing until the Contractor's testing system is determined reliable in accordance with paragraph (c) of 

this clause. It is the intent of the Government to rely on Contractor test results to the maximum extent practicable and minimize 

Government verification testing. 

(b) Compliance of product. 

Acceptance of material as complying with required characteristics shall be based on the Contractor's test results; provided that 

Government verification indicates the Contractor's testing system is reliable, in accordance with paragraph (c) of this clause, as 

to each of the required characteristics. If the Contractor's test system is determined to be unreliable, product compliance will be 

determined based solely on Government test results. In the event the Government detects any irregularities in the Contractor's 

testing system, the designated Government inspector may withhold approval until Government test results indicate products 

conform to contract requirements. (For Meal, Ready-to-Eat (MRE) items, if Government laboratory test results show that 

product is nonconforming, the product shall be withheld from final assembly and subject to return and replacement by the 

component Contractor, even if previously approved by the Government inspector.) 

(c) Reliability conditions. 

 (1) To be considered reliable, the Contractor's testing system shall produce results comparable to the Government test results; 

unless the Government agency having jurisdiction has inspected the item produced at the Contractor's plant within the previous 

120 days. Unless otherwise specified in this contract, the Government inspector will select samples randomly from the first three 

lots of end items presented for inspection and will conduct verification testing on a skip-lot basis. Skip-lot verification is done by 

random selection of samples from not less than one lot in six consecutive lots presented for inspection. The sampling procedure 

under skip-lot places the succeeding lots not chosen for inspection back into the universe available for subsequent inspection. 
CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 12 OF 29 PAGES

SPE3S1-20-D-5001

Form (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

(For instance, starting with a group of six lots (i.e., 1-6), one lot is randomly selected for inspection. If lot 4 is selected, the next 

samples will be selected from lots 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10. If lot 8 is selected, the next samples will be selected from lots 9, 10, 11, 12, 

13, or 14; and so on.) 

 (2) Contractor's testing system shall be considered unreliable when (i) the Government verification results indicate product 

nonconformance to contract requirements; and (ii) a significant disparity exists between Government laboratory results and 

Contractor test results. When a Contractor's testing system is determined to be unreliable, compliance testing will revert to the 

Government, and all items shall be inspected by the Government prior to shipment. 

 (3) Contractor's testing system will be considered doubtful when (i) a significant disparity exists between Government 

laboratory results and Contractor test results; (ii) the Government test results indicate significantly poorer quality than the 

Contractor's; and (iii) the Government laboratory test results do not indicate product nonconformance to a statistically significant 

degree. When the Contractor's testing system is considered doubtful, verification testing will be performed on each lot produced; 

however, the Government will continue to permit the Contractor to ship based on its own test results. 

 (4) Contractor testing system reliability will be determined by applying recognized statistical tests to the Contractor's and 

Government's test results. These determinations shall be accomplished by the DLA Troop Support, Directorate of Subsistence, 

Product Services Office, 700 Robbins Avenue, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19111-5092. 

 (5) The Contracting Officer will notify the Contractor of any change in reliability status. Notification will include details of the 

statistical determinations and test results used in reliability studies. Telephonic notification and copies of these determinations 

will be provided to the Government by DLA Troop Support FTRE. 

(d) Procedures. When the Contractor elects to perform testing, the following shall apply: 

 (1) Reporting of Contractor's results. Test reports for each lot of end item and components shall be submitted in the format 

contained in this clause by the Contractor in an original and one copy to the designated Government inspector. The inspector 

will forward one completed copy to DLA Troop Support FTRE. 

 (2) Verification actions. The Government will perform verification testing for food items and component material required by 

the contract to assure that the Contractor's testing results are reliable. Verification samples will be accompanied by a Department 

of Defense (DD) form 1222, Request for and Results of Tests. The Government laboratory that performs the tests will provide 

copies of the test results to the Government inspector and to DLA Troop Support FTRE. The Government laboratory will 

telephone the results to DLA Troop Support HS (215-737-4259) when testing identifies nonconformance. The Government 

reserves the right to (i) increase the rate or amount of verification testing up to and including full lot-by-lot testing, in the event 

the Contractor does not furnish reliable test results or certificates; or (ii) obtain additional data when significant disparities exist 

between the Contractor's results and the results of the Government laboratory testing. When any element of the Contractor 

testing system is determined unreliable, the Government may consider the testing system as a whole unreliable and return to full 

lot-by-lot verification for every test. Testing by the Government will continue until such time as the Contractor's reliability is 

again established. 

 (3) Standby test samples. The Government reserves the right to withdraw and hold standby test samples of component or 

finished product or both (the quantity of which shall be the next larger available sample size required for unit testing and the 

same sample size required for composite testing) for inspection purposes. Unused samples will be returned to the Contractor. 

(e) Charges applicable to unreliable test status. The prime Contractor shall be charged the costs of lot-by-lot inspection during 

the period that its testing system is considered unreliable. These charges will be processed and approved by the Contracting 

Officer. 

(f) Format for Contractor/subcontractor test report.

12. .Electronic Invoicing by Suppliers via Wide Area Workflow (WAWF): 

 

All suppliers are required to process invoices electronically by using WAWF. 

This is a condition for contract award. 

Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) is a secure web based system for electronic invoicing, receipt, and acceptance. WAWF allows 

government vendors to submit and track invoices and receipt/acceptance documents over the web and allows government 

personnel to process those invoices in a real-time, paperless environment. It is also the only application that will be used to 

capture the Unique Identification (UID) of Tangible Items information. 

WAWF System Requirements

WAWF is a free internet application. Contractors should refer to the “Machine 

Setup” information on the WAWF homepage, https://wawf.eb.mil

The minimum system requirements are: 

 133 MHz or more Pentium microprocessor (or equivalent) 

 SVGA Color Monitor (minimum 256 color) 

 64 MB RAM (minimum) 

 Internet Access (broadband recommended 

WAWF is in accordance with the 2001 National Defense Authorization Act (DFARS 252.232-7003/252.232.7003 Electronic 

Submission of Payment Requests and Receiving Reports- JUN 2012) which requires claims for payment under a Department of 

Defense Contract to be submitted in electronic form. 

As of March 03, 2008, DOD has issued a final rule amending the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation supplement (DFARS)

to require use of the Wide Area Workflow as the only acceptable electronic system for submitting requests for payment 

(invoices and receiving reports) under DOD contracts. 

13. REQUIREMENTS FOR TREATMENT OF WOOD PACKAGING MATERIAL (WPM)

 

A. This clause only applies when wood packaging material (WPM) will be used to make shipments under this contract 

and/or when WPM is being acquired under this contract. 

B. Definition. 
CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 14 OF 29 PAGES

SPE3S1-20-D-5001

Form (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

Wood packaging material (WPM) means wood pallets, skids, load boards, pallet collars, wooden boxes, reels, 

dunnage, crates, frame and cleats. The definition excludes materials that have undergone a manufacturing process, such as 

corrugated fiberboard, plywood, particleboard, veneer, and oriented strand board (OSD). 

C. All wood packaging material (WPM) used to make shipments under Department of Defense (DOD) contracts and/or 

acquired by DOD must meet requirements of international standards for phytosanitary measures (ISPM) 15, 

"Guidelines for Regulating Wood Packaging Materials in International Trade." DOD shipments inside and outside 

of the United States must meet ISPM 15 whenever WPM is used to ship DOD cargo. 

1. All WPM shall comply with the official quality control program for heat treatment (HT) or kiln dried heat 

treatment (KD HT) in accordance with American Lumber Standard Committee, Incorporated (ALSC) wood 

packaging material program and WPM enforcement regulations (see http://www.alsc.org/). 

2. All WPM shall include certification/quality markings in accordance with the ALSC standard. Markings shall be 

placed in an unobstructed area that will be readily visible to inspectors. Pallet markings shall be applied to the 

stringer or block on diagonally opposite sides of the pallet and be contrasting and clearly visible. All containers 

shall be marked on a side other than the top or bottom, contrasting and clearly visible. All dunnage used in 

configuring and/or securing the load shall also comply with ISPM 15 and be marked with an ALSC approved 

dunnage stamp. 

D. Failure to comply with the requirements of this restriction may result in refusal, destruction, or treatment of materials 

at the point of entry. The Agency reserves the right to recoup from the Contractor any remediation costs incurred by 

the Government.

52.211-16 VARIATION IN QUANTITY (APR 1984) FAR 

**** 

(b) The permissible variation shall be limited to: 

2.00 Percent increase

0.00 Percent decrease

This increase or decrease shall apply to each individual line item. 

 

52.212-4, Contract Terms and Conditions --Commercial Items (OCT 2018) is incorporated in this solicitation by reference. 

Its full text may be accessed electronically at https://www.acquisition.gov/far/index.html. Text is available for viewing in 

Subpart 52.2 Text of Provisions and Clauses, through either the HTML or PDF Format links.

 

The following paragraph(s) of 52.212-4 are amended as indicated below: 

1. Paragraph (a), Inspection/Acceptance, is revised to add FAR clause 52.246-2, Inspection of

Supplies - Fixed Price. FAR 52.246-2 expands the definition of “Supplies,” to include, but not limit to, raw materials, 

components, intermediate assemblies, end products, and supply lots. FAR 52.246-2 provides a basis for the Government's right 

to perform Product Verification Testing (PVT), which is a requirement on any resulting contract(s). PVT is addressed in DLAD 

clause 52.246-9004. Each clause is contained in full text elsewhere in the solicitation. 

 

2. Paragraph (c), Changes, is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 

(c) Changes. 

 The Contracting Officer may at any time, by unilateral written order, make changes within the general scope of this 

contract in any one or more of the following: 

(i) Method of shipment or packing; 

(ii) Place, manner, or time of delivery. 

 (2) If such change causes an increase or decrease in the cost of, or time required for, 

 performance for any part of the work under this contract, the Contracting Officer shall make equitable adjustment in the 

contract price, the delivery schedule, or both, and shall modify the contract. 

 (3) The Contractor must assert its right to an adjustment under this clause within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt 

of the written order. However, if the Contracting Officer decides that the facts justify it, the Contracting Officer may receive 

and act upon a proposal submitted before final payment of the contract. 

 (4) Failure to agree to any adjustment shall be a dispute under the Disputes Clause. However, nothing in this clause shall

excuse the Contractor from proceeding with the contract. 

 

3. Paragraph (m), Termination for Cause is deleted and replaced with the following: 

(m) Termination for Cause. The Government may terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for cause in the event of any 

default by the Contractor, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any contract terms and conditions, or fails to provide the 

Government upon request, with adequate assurances of future performance. In the event of termination for cause, the 

Government shall not be liable to the Contractor for any amount for supplies or services not accepted, and the Contractor shall 

be liable to the Government for any and all rights and remedies provided by law. If this contract is terminated in whole or in 

part for cause, and the supplies or services covered by the contract so terminated are repurchased by the Government, the 

Government will incur administrative costs in such repurchases. The Contractor and the Government expressly agree that, in 

addition to any excess costs of repurchase, or any other damages resulting from such default, the Contractor shall pay, and the 

Government shall accept, the sum of $1,350.00 as payment in full for the administrative costs of such repurchase. This 

assessment of damages for administrative costs shall apply for any termination for cause following which the Government 

repurchases the terminated supplies or services together with any incidental or consequential damages incurred because of the 

termination. If it is determined that the Government improperly terminated this contract for default, such termination shall be 

deemed a termination for convenience. 

 

4. Paragraph (o), Warranty is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 

(a) Definitions. 

"Acceptance," as used in this clause, means the act of an authorized representative of the Government by which the Government 

assumes for itself, or as an agent of another, ownership of existing supplies, or approves specific services as partial or complete 

performance of the contract. 

"Correction," as used in this clause, means the elimination of a defect. 

"Supplies," as used in this clause, means the end item furnished by the Contractor and related services required under the 

contract. The word does not include "data". 

(b) Contractor's obligations. 

(1) Notwithstanding inspection and acceptance by the Government of supplies furnished under this contract, or any condition of 

this contract concerning the conclusiveness thereof, the Contractor warrants that for 6 months after receipt of supplies at 

destination or, in the case of supplies required to bear an expiration date, for the expiration date indicated in the labeling thereof, 

all supplies furnished 

 (i) Are of a quality to pass without objection in the trade under the contract description; 

(ii) Are fit for the ordinary purposes for which the supplies are used; 

(iii) Are within the variations permitted by the contract, and are of an even kind, quality and quantity within each unit and 

among all units; 

(iv) Are adequately contained, packaged, and marked as he contract may require; and 

(v) Conform to the promises or affirmations of fact made on the container. 

 (2) When return of the supplies to the contractor and redelivery, if applicable, is required, transportation charges and 

responsibility for the supplies while in transit shall be borne by the contractor. Contractor shall also be liable for: 

(i) Handling costs and incidental charges incurred by the Government in the preparation of the above described supplies for 

return to the contractor and in return of said supplies to storage, after redelivery by the contractor; and 

(ii) For cost of Government examination of the corrected or replaced supplies computed and charged at the flat rate of $49.28 

per hour. 

(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 receipt of the corrected or replaced 

supplies at destination. 

(c) Remedies available to the government. 

(1) Notice Requirement: The Contracting Officer shall give written notice to the contractor of any breach of warranties in 

paragraph (b)(1) of this clause within 7 days from receipt of supplies at destination or, in the case of supplies required to bear an 

expiration date, no later than one month following the expiration date indicated in the labeling.

(2) Conformance of supplies or parts thereof subject to warranty action shall be determined in accordance with the inspection 

and acceptance procedures contained in the contract except as provided herein. If the contract provides for sampling, the 

Contracting Officer may group any supplies delivered under this contract. The size of the sample shall be that required by the 
CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 16 OF 29 PAGES

SPE3S1-20-D-5001

Form (CONTINUED)

CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

sampling procedure specified in the contract for the quantity of supplies on which warranty action is proposed, except when 

projecting sampling results. Warranty sampling results may be projected over supplies in the same shipment or other supplies 

contained in other shipments even though all of such supplies are not present at the point of reinspection and regardless of 

whether such supplies have been issued or consumed, provided (1) the supplies from which the samples were drawn are 

reasonably representative of the quantity on which warranty action is proposed, and (2) the defects found in the sample size are 

sufficient to reject the quantity of supplies on which warranty action is proposed, even though the sample size may be less than 

that required for such quantity. The original inspection lots need not be reconstituted, nor shall the Contracting Officer be 

required to use the same lot size as on original inspection. Within a reasonable time after the notice, the Contracting Officer may 

exercise one or more of the following options; and also, following the exercise of any option, may unilaterally change it to one 

or more of the other options set forth below: 

(i) Require an equitable adjustment in the contract price for any supplies or group of supplies; 

 (ii) Screen the supplies grouped under this clause at contractor's expense and return all nonconforming supplies to the contractor 

for correction or replacement; 

(iii) Require the contractor to screen the supplies at depots designated by the Government within the continental United States 

and to correct or replace all nonconforming supplies; 

 (iv) Return any supplies or group of supplies under this clause to the contractor (irrespective of the f.o.b. point or the point of 

acceptance) for screening and correction or replacement; 

(v) Return or hold for contractor's account any supplies or group of supplies delivered hereunder, whereupon the contractor shall 

repay the contract price paid therefore. In such event, the Government may reprocure similar supplies upon such terms and in 

such manner as the Contracting Officer may deem appropriate, and charge to the contractor the additional cost occasioned the 

Government thereby. 

(3) When remedy (c) (2) (iii) or (c) (2) (iv) of this clause is exercised, the contractor is required to submit in writing and within 

30 days after receipt of notice of such invocation a schedule for either: 

(i) Correction and/or replacement of all defective supplies and subsequent redelivery of the returned supplies; or, 

(ii) Screening defective supplies at each depot involved and subsequent redelivery of all corrected and/or replaced supplies. 

Such schedule will become a part of the contract delivery schedule upon agreement thereto by the Government. If the contractor 

fails to provide an agreeable schedule within the specified period, or any extension agreed to by the Government, the 

Government may correct the items and charge the contractor's account; or, issue a contract for correction of the items and charge 

the contractor's account; or, exercise one or more of the remedies specified in paragraph (4) below. 

(4) If the contractor fails to accept return of the nonconforming supplies; or, fails to make redelivery of the corrected or replaced 

supplies to the Government within the time established; or, fails to make progress after their return to correct or replace them so 

as to endanger performance within the time established for redelivery and 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, the Contracting Officer may exercise one or more of the following remedies:

by or for DoD (including the information submitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this clause) is authorized to be used and 

released outside of DoD for purposes and activities authorized by paragraph (i) of this clause, and for any other lawful 

Government purpose or activity, subject to all applicable statutory, regulatory, and policy based restrictions on the 

Government's use and release of such information. 

(k) The Contractor shall conduct activities under this clause in accordance with applicable laws and regulations on the 

interception, monitoring, access, use, and disclosure of electronic communications and data. 

(l) Other safeguarding or reporting requirements. The safeguarding and cyber incident reporting required by this clause 

in no way abrogates the Contractor's responsibility for other safeguarding or cyber incident reporting pertaining to its 

unclassified information systems as required by other applicable clauses of this contract, or as a result of other 

applicable U.S. Government statutory or regulatory requirements. 

(m) Subcontracts. The Contractor shall -- 

(1) Include this clause, including this paragraph (m), in subcontracts, or similar contractual instruments, for 
CONTINUATION SHEET REFERENCE NO. OF DOCUMENT BEING CONTINUED: PAGE 27 OF 29 PAGES
