The business case analysis template and guidance for the head of the contracting activity determination to enter into a contract for a period in excess of 5 years is available here: http://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/dfars/changenotice/2010/20100621/2008-D006%20PGI%20Template.html.
(A) Provide notification if its acquisition approach will use another agency’s contract vehicle; and
1. This agreement is entered into this ____ day of _____________________,____, by the United States of America (the “Government”:) represented by _________________, the Contracting Officer, and ___________________________, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of __________________________ (the “Contractor”).
(iii) The contractor’s proposal.
To improve the documentation and provide guidance on determining the profit for UCAs with substantial incurred cost, contracting officers shall follow the mandatory instructions at DFARS 215.404-71-3(d)(2) regarding lowering contract type risk assessments for the incurred costs when performing weighted guidelines analysis. Additional guidance on analyzing profit or fee (DAU continuous learning course (CLC) 104, Analyzing Profit or Fee) is provided at this website: http://icatalog.dau.mil/onlinecatalog/courses.aspx?crs_id=239
(1) By October 31 and April 30 of each year, departments and agencies shall submit an updated Consolidated UCA Management Plan, and a Consolidated UCA Management Report, identifying each UCA with a value exceeding $5 million. In addition, departments and agencies shall submit a copy of the record of weighted guidelines for each definitized UCA with a value of $100 million or more. If there is no record of weighted guidelines (e.g., not required for a cost plus award fee contract per DFARS 215.404-74), then departments and agencies shall submit alternative documentation that addresses appropriate recognition of the contractor’s reduced cost risk during the undefinitized performance period. Submit the required information to—
2. Description of actions planned and taken to ensure: a. Appropriate use of UCAs. b. Timely definitization of UCAs. c. Minimized obligation amounts at the time of UCA award, consistent with the contractor’s requirements for the undefinitized period. d. In determining profit/fee, appropriate recognition of the contractor’s reduced cost risk during the undefinitized performance period. e. Documentation of the risk assessment in the contract file.
(1) Any centrally managed replenishment or provisioned part (hereinafter referred to as “part”) for military systems and equipment; and
A part, repairable or consumable, purchased after provisioning of that part, for: replacement; replenishment of stock; or use in the maintenance, overhaul, and repair of equipment such as aircraft, engines, ships, tanks, vehicles, guns and missiles, ground communications and electronic systems, ground support, and test equipment. As used in the breakout program, except when distinction is necessary, the term “part” includes subassemblies, components, and subsystems as defined by the current version of MIL-STD-280.
(b) Code suspense dates. Every part whose breakout status can be improved shall be suspensed for rescreening as appropriate. In general, the following codes cannot be improved: 1G, 2G, 1K, 2K, 1M, 2M, 1N, 2N, 1T, 2T, 1Z, or 2Z. The period between suspenses is a period for which an assigned AMC/AMSC is considered active, and routine rescreening of parts with “valid” codes is not required. Suspense dates may vary with the circumstance surrounding each part. A code reached as a result of limited screening (3-304) shall not be assigned a suspense date exceeding 12 months; a code reached as a result of full screening (3-303) shall not be assigned a suspense date exceeding 3 years. In exceptional cases, where circumstances indicate that no change can be expected in a code over an extended period, a suspense date not exceeding 5 years may be assigned in accordance with controls established by the breakout activity. Items with a 1G or 2G code do not require a suspense date.
(6) Steps 8 and 9. Specify omissions. The question in steps 6 and 7 requires a critical engineering evaluation and should deal first with the physical completeness of the date—are any essential dimensions, tolerances, processes, finishes, material specifications, or other vital elements of data lacking from the package? If so, these omissions should be specified. A second element deals with adequacy of the existing package to produce a part of the required performance, compatibility, quality, and reliability. This will, of course, be related to the completeness of data. In some cases, qualified engineering judgment may decide that, in spite of apparently complete data, the high performance or other critical characteristics of the item require retention of the present source. If such decision is made, the file shall include documentation in the form of specific information, such as difficulties experienced by the present manufacturer in producing a satisfactory item or the existence of unique production skills in the present source.

(i) “Provisioning” means the process of determining and acquiring the range and quantity of spare and repair parts, and support and test equipment required to operate and maintain an end item for an initial period of service.
(ii) “Provisioned item” means any item selected under provisioning procedures.
(iii) “Provisioned items order” means an undefinitized order issued under a contract that includes the Government's requirements for provisioned items. (Provisioned items with firm prices are acquired by supplemental agreement or by separate contract.)
