The clauses appear verbatim as they were given to NASSCO, unless the clause bears a note that the clause was modified by NASSCO.

Subcontracts. If the Contractor acquires by subcontract, any item(s) for which unique item identification is required in accordance with paragraph (c)(1) of this clause, the Contractor shall include this clause, including this paragraph (g), in the applicable subcontract(s).
Failure to make a good faith effort to comply with the subcontracting plan, as used in this clause, means a willful or intentional failure to perform in accordance with the requirements of the subcontracting plan approved under the clause in this contract entitled "Small Business Subcontracting Plan," or willful or intentional action to frustrate the plan.
Performance shall be measured by applying the percentage goals to the total actual subcontracting dollars, or if a commercial plan is involved, to the pro rata share of actual subcontracting dollars attributable to Government contracts covered by the commercial plan. If, at contract completion or, in the case of a commercial plan, at the close of a fiscal year for which the plan is applicable, the Contractor has failed to meet its subcontracting goals and the Contracting Officer decides in accordance with paragraph (c) of this clause that the Contractor failed to make a good faith effort to comply with its subcontracting plan, established in accordance with the clause entitled "Small Business Subcontracting Plan," the Contractor shall pay the Government liquidated damages in an amount stated. The amount of probable damages attributable to the Contractor's failure to comply shall be an amount equal to the actual dollar amount by which the Contractor failed to achieve each subcontract goal.
Before the Contracting Officer makes a final decision that the Contractor has failed to make such good faith effort, the Contracting Officer shall give the Contractor written notice specifying the failure and permitting the Contractor to demonstrate what good faith efforts have been made and to discuss the matter. Failure to respond to the notice may be taken as an admission that no valid explanation exists. If, after consideration of all of the pertinent data, the Contracting Officer finds that the Contractor failed to make a good faith effort to comply with the subcontracting plan, the Contracting Officer shall issue a final decision to that effect and require that the Contractor pay the Government liquidated damages as provided in paragraph (d) of this clause. With respect to commercial plans, the Contracting Officer who approved the plan will perform the functions of the Contracting Officer under this clause on behalf of all agencies with contracts covered by the commercial plan. The Contractor shall have the right of appeal, under the clause in this contract entitled Disputes, from any final decision of the Contracting Officer.
Liquidated damages shall be in addition to any other remedies that the Government may have.
The Contractor shall comply with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), 10 U.S.C. 7311 and all other applicable Federal, State and local laws, codes, ordinances and regulations for the management and disposal of hazardous waste. Nothing contained in this special contract requirement shall relieve the Contractor from complying with applicable Federal, State, and local Laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations, including obtaining licenses and permits, giving notices and submitting reports, in connection with hazardous waste management and disposal in the performance of this contract. Nothing contained herein shall serve to alter either party's liability or responsibility under CERCLA. Materials contained in ship systems are not waste until after removal from the system.
IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDOUS WASTES N/A of this contract identifies the types and amounts of hazardous wastes that are required to be removed by the Contractor, or that are expected to be generated, during the performance of work under this contract.
GENERATOR IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS Documentation related to hazardous waste generated solely by the physical actions of ship's force or Navy employees on board the vessel shall only bear a generator identification number issued to the Navy pursuant to applicable law. Documentation related to hazardous waste generated solely by the physical actions of Contractor personnel shall only bear a generator identification number issued to the Contractor pursuant to applicable law. Regardless of the presence of other materials in or on the shipboard systems or structures using materials (whether or not the use of such materials was specified by the Navy) which by themselves would cause the waste from such work to be a hazardous waste, documentation related to such waste shall only bear a generator identification number issued to the Contractor. Documentation related to hazardous waste generated by the combined physical actions of Navy and Contractor personnel shall bear a generator identification number issued to the Contractor pursuant to applicable law and shall also cite in the remarks block a generator identification number issued to the Navy pursuant to applicable law. Notwithstanding paragraphs (c)(1) – (c)(3) above, hazardous wastes are considered to be co-generated in cases where: (a) the Contractor merely drains a system and such drainage creates hazardous waste or (b) the Contractor performs work on a system or structure using materials which by themselves would not cause the waste from such work to be hazardous waste but such work nonetheless creates a hazardous waste. Documentation related to such co-generated waste shall bear a generator identification number in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (c)(3) above. In the event of a failure by the parties to agree to the assignment of a generator identification number to any hazardous waste as set forth in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(4) above, the Government may direct which party or parties shall provide generator identification numbers for the waste and such number(s) shall be used on all required documentation. Any disagreement with this direction shall be a dispute within the meaning of the clause of this contract entitled "DISPUTES" (FAR 52.233-1). However, the Contractor shall not stop any work but shall continue with performance of all work under this contract as specified in the "DISPUTES" clause. Hazardous Waste Manifests. For wastes described in (c)(2), (c)(3), and (c)(4) above (and (c)(5) as applicable), the Contractor shall sign the generator certification on the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest whenever use of the Manifest is required for disposal. The Contractor shall obtain concurrence with the categorization of wastes under paragraph (c)(3) and (c)(4) above before completion of the manifest. Manifests prepared pursuant to paragraph (c)(1) above shall be presented to the ACO for completion after the hazardous waste has been identified. For purposes of paragraphs (c)(2) and (3) herein, if the Contractor, while performing work at a Government facility, cannot obtain a separate generator identification number from the State in which the availability will be performed, the Contractor shall notify the ACO within 3 business days of receipt of written notification by the State. After obtaining ACO approval, the Contractor shall use the Navy site generator identification number and insert in the remarks block the contractor generator identification number issued for the site where his main facilities are located. For purposes of paragraph (c)(1) herein, if the work is being performed at a contractor facility and the Government cannot obtain a separate generator identification number for the State, the Government shall use the Contractor site generator identification number and shall cite in the remarks block a Navy generator identification number. In both instances described above, the Contractor shall prepare the Uniform Hazardous Waste Manifest described in paragraph (c)(6) above and present it to the ACO for completion.
The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer or designee, in writing, ______________* days prior to the delivery of, or prior to completion of any servicing required by this contract of, items containing either (1) radioactive material requiring specific licensing under the regulations issued pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, as set forth in Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, in effect on the date of this contract, or (2) other radioactive material not requiring specific licensing in which the specific activity is greater than 0.002 microcuries per gram or the activity per item equals or exceeds 0.01 microcuries. Such notice shall specify the part or parts of the items which contain radioactive materials, a description of the materials, the name and activity of the isotope, the manufacturer of the materials, and any other information known to the Contractor which will put users of the items on notice as to the hazards involved (OMB No. 9000-0107). * The Contracting Officer shall insert the number of days required in advance of delivery of the item or completion of the servicing to assure that required licenses are obtained and appropriate personnel are notified to institute any necessary safety and health precautions. See FAR 23.601(d). If there has been no change affecting the quantity of activity, or the characteristics and composition of the radioactive material from deliveries under this contract or prior contracts, the Contractor may request that the Contracting Officer or designee waive the notice requirement in paragraph (a) of this clause. Any such request shall— Be submitted in writing; State that the quantity of activity, characteristics, and composition of the radioactive material have not changed; and Cite the contract number on which the prior notification was submitted and the contracting office to which it was submitted. All items, parts, or subassemblies which contain radioactive materials in which the specific activity is greater than 0.002 microcuries per gram or activity per item equals or exceeds 0.01 microcuries, and all containers in which such items, parts or subassemblies are delivered to the Government shall be clearly marked and labeled as required by the latest revision of MIL-STD 129 in effect on the date of the contract. This clause, including this paragraph (d), shall be inserted in all subcontracts for radioactive materials meeting the criteria in paragraph (a) of this clause. back to top
Definitions. As used in this requirement, the term "Contracting Officer" does not include any representative of the Contracting Officer whether or not such representative is acting within the scope of his authority nor does it include any other individuals or activities that in any way communicate with the Contractor. As used in this requirement, the term "conduct" includes both actions and failures to act, and includes the furnishing of, or the failure to furnish, any item under any requirement of this contract.
Notice. The primary purpose of this requirement is to obtain prompt reporting of any conduct which the Contractor considers would constitute or would require a change to this contract. The parties acknowledge that proper administration of this contract requires that potential changes be identified and resolved as they arise. Therefore, except for changes identified as such in writing and signed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer of any conduct which the Contractor considers would constitute or would require a change to this contract. Such notice shall be provided promptly and in any event within thirty (30) calendar days from the date the Contractor identifies any such conduct. The Notice shall be written and shall state, on the basis of the most accurate information available to the Contractor:
The date, nature, and circumstances of the conduct regarded as a change;
The name, function, and activity of the individuals directly involved in or knowledgeable about such conduct;
The identification of any documents and the substance of any oral communication involved in such conduct;
The particular elements of contract performance for which the Contractor might seek an equitable adjustment under this requirement, including:
What ship(s) have been or might be affected by the potential change;
To the extent practicable, labor or materials or both which have been or might be added, deleted, or wasted by the potential change;
To the extent practicable, the Contractor's preliminary order of magnitude estimate of cost and schedule effect of the potential change; and
What and in what manner are the particular technical requirements or contract requirements regarded as changed.
Continued Performance. Except as provided in paragraph (f) below, following submission of notice, the Contractor shall take no action to implement a potential change until advised by the Contracting Officer in writing as provided in (d) below, unless the potential change was previously directed by the Contracting Officer, in which case the Contractor shall conform therewith. Nothing in this paragraph (c) shall excuse the Contractor from proceeding with contract work other than implementation of the potential change or from proceeding in accordance with directions issued by the Contracting Officer.
Government Response. The Contracting Officer shall promptly, and in any event within twenty one (21) calendar days after receipt of Notice, respond thereto in writing. In such response, the Contracting Officer shall either:
Confirm that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice would constitute a change, and when necessary, direct the mode of further performance, or;
Countermand any conduct regarded by the Contractor as a change, or;
Deny that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice would constitute a change and, when necessary, direct the mode of further performance, or;
In the event the Contractor's notice information is inadequate to make a decision under (i), (ii), or (iii), above, advise the Contractor what additional information is required. Failure of the Government to respond within the time required above shall be deemed a countermand under (d)(ii).
Equitable Adjustments. Equitable adjustments for changes confirmed or countermanded by the Contracting Officer shall be made in accordance with the clause of this contract entitled "CHANGES", or any other requirement of this contract which provides for an equitable adjustment.
Special Procedures. Paragraph (c) provides that the Contractor is to take no action to implement a potential change pending the Contracting Officer's response to the Contractor's notice of the potential change, except where specifically directed by the Contracting Officer. In special situations, however, where The circumstances do not allow sufficient time to notify the Contracting Officer of the facts prior to the need to proceed with the work; and
The work must proceed to avoid hazards to personnel or property or to avoid additional cost to the Government, the Contractor may proceed with work in accordance with the potential change. In such special situations, the Contractor shall advise the Contracting Officer in writing within ten (10) days of the conduct giving rise to the potential change that the Contractor has proceeded and shall describe the nature of the special situation which required proceeding prior to notification. Within thirty (30) calendar days of the conduct giving rise to the potential change, the Contractor shall provide notice as required in (b) above. The Contracting Office shall respond as set forth in (d) above. If the Contracting Officer determines that the conduct constitutes a change and countermands it, the Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment for performance in accordance with that change prior to the countermand including the performance resulting from the countermand.
When the Contractor identifies any conduct which may result in delay to delivery of the ship(s), the Contractor shall promptly so inform the Contracting Officer thereof prior to providing the notice required by paragraph (b) above.
Despite good faith best efforts, occasions may arise in which the Contractor does not provide notice within the time periods specified in paragraphs (b) and (f) above. Accordingly, prior to the end of the first and third quarters of each calendar year through the period of performance of the contract, beginning with the fourth quarter of 2010, the Contractor shall deliver to the Government an executed bilateral contract modification, in the format set forth in Exhibit "A" to this requirement, covering the six month period of time ending with the second and fourth quarters, respectively, of the preceding year, with such specific exceptions, if any, as are identified by the Contractor. If the Contractor cites specific exceptions to the release, the Contractor shall concurrently provide the Contracting Officer with notice, containing the information set forth in paragraph (b) of this requirement, for each item excepted from the release. However, the release required by this requirement shall not make unallowable any costs which are otherwise allowable under any other requirement of this contract.
Within sixty (60) days of receipt of the release, the Contracting Officer shall sign and return a copy of the release to the Contractor. If the Contracting Officer fails to execute and return the release within the required time, then the release shall be deemed to be void and of no effect for the period involved.
If the release in accordance with paragraph (h) above is not provided to the Government by the Contractor in the time required, the Contracting Officer may execute the release as set forth in Exhibit "A" and send it to the Contractor. If the Contractor fails to execute the release and return it to the Government (with any specific exceptions) within sixty (60) days of receipt thereof, the required release shall then be deemed effective as if signed by the Contractor. Exhibit "A" to the Requirement entitled "NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES"
This modification reflects the agreement of the parties to the mutual full and final releases for the consequences of that conduct (as conduct is defined in the requirement entitled "NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES"), described below, except the conduct identified in Attachment A hereto is excluded and not covered by the terms of this release. Except for the conduct listed in Attachment A by either party, neither the Contractor nor the Government shall be entitled to any equitable adjustment or to money damages and/or other relief for any conduct, as specified below. In consideration of the foregoing the parties hereby agree to the following release:
The Government, for itself, its assigns, vendors, suppliers, and contractors, hereby remises, releases, and forever discharges the Contractor, its officers, agents and employees from any and all entitlement of the Government to equitable adjustment of the contract cost and fee and delivery schedule due to conduct under this contract, which occurred on or before TBD.
The Contractor, for itself, its successors, assigns, vendors, suppliers, and subcontractors, hereby remises, releases and forever discharges the Government, its officers, agents and employees from (i) any and all entitlement of the Contractor to equitable adjustment of the contract cost and fee and/or delivery schedule of this contract or of any other Government contract (with this or any other Contractor) or any contract between the Contractor and any third party by reason of any conduct which increases the Contractor's cost or time of performance of work under this contract and meets the following conditions (1) known to the Contractor, (2) occurred on or before TBD and (3) the Contractor failed to give notice prior to date of this release, and (ii) any and all liabilities to the Contractor for money damages and/or other relief for the impact of any such conduct, upon this contract or any other Government contract (with this or any other Contractor) or any contract between the Contractor and any third party. back to top
"Contracting Officer," as used in this clause, does not include any representative of the Contracting Officer.
"Specifically authorized representative (SAR)," as used in this clause, means any person the Contracting Officer has so designated by written notice (a copy of which shall be provided to the Contractor) which shall refer to this subparagraph and shall be issued to the designated representative before the SAR exercises such authority.
Notice. The primary purpose of this clause is to obtain prompt reporting of Government conduct that the Contractor considers to constitute a change to this contract. Except for changes identified as such in writing and signed and signed by the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall notify the Administrative Contracting Officer in writing, within 5 calendar days from the Contractor identifies any Government conduct (including actions, inactions, and written or oral communications) that the Contractor regards as a change to the contract terms and conditions.

Continued performance. Following the submission of the notice required by (b) above, the Contractor shall diligently continue performance of this contract to the maximum extent possible in accordance with its terms and conditions as construed by the Contractor, unless the notice reports a direction of the Contracting Officer or a communication from a SAR of the Contracting Officer, in either of which events the Contractor shall continue performance; provided, however, that if the Contractor regards the direction or communication as a change as described in (b) above, notice shall be given in the manner provided. All directions, communications, interpretations, orders and similar actions of the SAR shall be reduced to writing and copies furnished to the Contractor and to the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer shall countermand any action which exceeds the authority of the SAR.
Government response. The Contracting Officer shall promptly, within 30 calendar days after receipt of notice, respond to the notice in writing. In responding, the Contracting Officer shall either—

Deny that the conduct of which the Contractor gave notice constitutes a change and when necessary direct the mode of further performance; or
In the event the Contractor's notice information is inadequate to make a decision under (1), (2), or (3) above, advise the Contractor what additional information is required, and establish the date by which it should be furnished and the date thereafter by which the Government will respond.
Equitable adjustments.
If the Contracting Officer confirms that Government conduct effected a change as alleged by the Contractor, and the conduct causes an increase or decrease in the Contractor's cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work under the contract, whether changed or not changed by such conduct, an equitable adjustment shall be made—
In the contract price or delivery schedule or both; and
In such other provisions of the contract as may be affected.
The contract shall be modified in writing accordingly. In the case of drawings, designs or specifications which are defective and for which the Government is responsible, the equitable adjustment shall include the cost and time extension for delay reasonably incurred by the Contractor in attempting to comply with the defective drawings, designs or specifications before the Contractor identified, or reasonably should have identified, such defect. When the cost of property made obsolete or excess as a result of a change confirmed by the Contracting Officer under this clause is included in the equitable adjustment, the Contracting Officer shall have the right to prescribe the manner of disposition of the property. The equitable adjustment shall not include increased costs or time extensions for delay resulting from the Contractor's failure to provide notice or to continue performance as provided, respectively, in (b) and (c) above.
Note: The phrases "contract price" and "cost" wherever they appear in the clause, may be appropriately modified to apply to cost-reimbursement or incentive contracts, or combinations thereof.
52.215-19 NOTIFICATION OF OWNERSHIP CHANGES (OCT 1997) The Contractor shall make the following notifications in writing: When the Contractor becomes aware that a change in its ownership has occurred, or is certain to occur, that could result in changes in the valuation of its capitalized assets in the accounting records, the Contractor shall notify the Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) within 30 days.

Exceptions from cost or pricing data. In lieu of submitting cost or pricing data for modifications under this contract, for price adjustments expected to exceed the threshold set forth at FAR 15.403-4 on the date of the agreement on price or the date of the award, whichever is later, the Contractor may submit a written request for exception by submitting the information described in the following subparagraphs. The Contracting Officer may require additional supporting information, but only to the extent necessary to determine whether an exception should be granted, and whether the price is fair and reasonable— Identification of the law or regulation establishing the price offered. If the price is controlled under law by periodic rulings, reviews, or similar actions of a governmental body, attach a copy of the controlling document, unless it was previously submitted to the contracting office. Information on modifications of contracts or subcontracts for commercial items. If— The original contract or subcontract was granted an exception from cost or pricing data requirements because the price agreed upon was based on adequate price competition or prices set by law or regulation, or was a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item; and The modification (to the contract or subcontract) is not exempted based on one of these exceptions, then the Contractor may provide information to establish that the modification would not change the contract or subcontract from a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of a commercial item to a contract or subcontract for the acquisition of an item other than a commercial item. For a commercial item exception, the Contractor shall provide, at a minimum, information on prices at which the same item or similar items have previously been sold that is adequate for evaluating the reasonableness of the price of the modification. Such information may include— For catalog items, a copy of or identification of the catalog and its date, or the appropriate pages for the offered items, or a statement that the catalog is on file in the buying office to which the proposal is being submitted. Provide a copy or describe current discount policies and price lists (published or unpublished), e.g., wholesale, original equipment manufacturer, or reseller. Also explain the basis of each offered price and its relationship to the established catalog price, including how the proposed price relates to the price of recent sales in quantities similar to the proposed quantities. For market-priced items, the source and date or period of the market quotation or other basis for market price, the base amount, and applicable discounts. In addition, describe the nature of the market. For items included on an active Federal Supply Service Multiple Award Schedule contract, proof that an exception has been granted for the schedule item. The Contractor grants the Contracting Officer or an authorized representative the right to examine, at any time before award, books, records, documents, or other directly pertinent records to verify any request for an exception under this clause, and the reasonableness of price. For items priced using catalog or market prices, or law or regulation, access does not extend to cost or profit information or other data relevant solely to the Contractor's determination of the prices to be offered in the catalog or marketplace. Requirements for cost or pricing data. If the Contractor is not granted an exception from the requirement to submit cost or pricing data, the following applies: The Contractor shall submit cost or pricing data, data other than certified cost or pricing data, and supporting attachments in accordance with the instructions contained in Table 15-2 of FAR 15.408.
As soon as practicable after agreement on price, but before award (except for unpriced actions), the Contractor shall submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, as prescribed by FAR 15.406-2.
The Prime Contract requires that Buyer subcontract to small businesses, either directly or indirectly, a percentage of direct costs related to Prime Contract production work. This requirement may be met at any subcontracting tier.
To facilitate Buyer's meeting the requirement of subparagraph (a), above, large business Sellers shall identify to Buyer the number of dollars that Seller pays to small businesses for services or supplies, and in each case, Seller shall identify any special category of the small business, i.e., veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, disadvantaged, women-owned, or HUB Zone small business. Buyer cannot "tier" profit or fee on any major subcontract (purchase order). "Tiering" is the adding of profit or fee to Seller's profit or fee. A "major subcontract" is a subcontract (purchase order) held by a large business Seller. There is one exception to this tiering prohibition, and that is when a large business Seller is awarded a fixed-price subcontract (purchase order) via competition. Therefore, large business Sellers shall identify the amount of profit or fee that is included in their proposals to Buyer if the subcontract (purchase order) was not competitively bid. back to top
For the purpose of this provision, the small business subcontracting requirement is that the prime contractor subcontract to small businesses, either directly or indirectly, over the course of all scheduled availabilities and inter-availability work completed within a Fee Evaluation Period (defined in Section B of this solicitation, "Determination of Fee Clause") to the extent that small business subcontracting averages forty percent (40%) of direct costs related to production work for CLINS associated with scheduled availabilities and inter-availability work (i.e., Continuous Maintenance and Emergent Maintenance) completed within the evaluation period, minus the cost of any directed subcontracts and execution planning efforts, not including direct costs. The forty percent (40%) subcontracting requirement may be met at any subcontracting tier. However, the Government will NOT permit the "tiering" of profit or fee on any large or small business subcontract. The Government will NOT permit any "profit-on-profit" or "fee-on-fee" on any subcontract held by a large or small business. Prime contractors shall NOT include fee from any large or small business subcontractor, including but not limited to Government directed large or small business subcontractors, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), and Tech Reps in their fee bearing costs. The only exception to this requirement is a large or small business subcontractor awarded a fixed price contract in a competitive environment where cost and pricing data was not available. The Offeror must accomplish the 40% small business subcontracting requirement using at least two or more small businesses for EACH CNO scheduled availability.
A small business Offeror is not exempt from this requirement because of its status as a small business.
Offerors are encouraged to subcontract with small, disadvantaged businesses, women-owned small businesses, veteran-owned small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, historically black colleges and universities and minority institutions, and HUB-Zone small businesses. The Offerors should also strive to meet the 40% small business subcontracting requirement using the aforementioned categories of small businesses to the greatest extent possible.
The extent to which the contractor does or does not meet, the requirements of this provision during actual contract performance, as documented by compliance reports submitted by the Contractor in accordance with Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) (A001) will be evaluated for fee purposes.
The failure of the Contractor to comply in good faith with this clause shall be considered a material breach of the contract.
The Government reserves the right, on a case basis, to deviate from the requirements of this clause based on circumstances at time of contract performance.
NOTE: Purchase orders to a subcontractor for work, which has not been performed, or for equipment ordered but not received within a fee evaluation period, will not be considered for the purpose of meeting the requirements of this clause. "Open commitments" (e.g., material/equipment ordered but not received, services ordered but not performed) will not be considered during a fee period just because a purchase order was issued. Material/equipment or services will only be considered once the equipment/material is actually received or the work is actually performed during a Fee Evaluation Period.
Approved purchasing system means a Contractor's purchasing system that has been reviewed and approved in accordance with Part 44 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). Consent to subcontract means the Contracting Officer's written consent for the Contractor to enter into a particular subcontract.
Subcontract means any contract, as defined in FAR Subpart 2.1, entered into by a subcontractor to furnish supplies or services for performance of the prime contract or a subcontract. It includes, but is not limited to, purchase orders, and changes and modifications to purchase orders.
When this clause is included in a fixed-price type contract, consent to subcontract is required only on unpriced contract actions (including unpriced modifications or unpriced delivery orders), and only if required in accordance with paragraph (c) or (d) of this clause.
If the Contractor does not have an approved purchasing system, consent to subcontract is required for any subcontract that—
Is of the cost-reimbursement, time-and-materials, or labor-hour type; or
Is fixed-price and exceeds—
For a contract awarded by the Department of Defense, the Coast Guard, or the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the greater of the simplified acquisition threshold or 5 percent of the total estimated cost of the contract; or
For a contract awarded by a civilian agency other than the Coast Guard and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, either the simplified acquisition threshold or 5 percent of the total estimated cost of the contract.
If the Contractor has an approved purchasing system, the Contractor nevertheless shall obtain the Contracting Officer's written consent before placing the following subcontracts:
The Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer reasonably in advance of placing any subcontract or modification thereof for which consent is required under paragraph (b), (c), or (d) of this clause, including the following information:
A description of the supplies or services to be subcontracted.
Identification of the type of subcontract to be used.
Identification of the proposed subcontractor.
The proposed subcontract price.
The subcontractor's current, complete and accurate cost or pricing data and Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data, if required by other contract provisions.
The subcontractor's Disclosure Statement or Certificate relating to Cost Accounting Standards when such data are required by other provisions of this contract.
A negotiation memorandum reflecting—
The principle elements of the subcontract price negotiations;
The most significant considerations controlling establishment of initial or revised prices;
The reason cost or pricing data were or were not required;
The extent, if any, to which the Contractor did not rely on the subcontractor's cost or pricing data in determining the price objective and in negotiating the final price;
The extent to which it was recognized in the negotiation that the subcontractor's cost or pricing data were not accurate, complete, or current; the action taken by the Contractor and the subcontractor; and the effect of any such defective data on the total price negotiated;
The reasons for any significant difference between the Contractor's price objective and the price negotiated; and
A complete explanation of the incentive fee or profit plan when incentives are used. The explanation shall identify each critical performance element, management decisions used to quantify each incentive element, reasons for the incentives, and a summary of all trade-off possibilities considered.
The Contractor is not required to notify the Contracting Officer in advance of entering into any subcontract for which consent is not required under paragraph (c), (d), or (e) of this clause.
Unless the consent or approval specifically provides otherwise, neither consent by the Contracting Officer to any subcontract nor approval of the Contractor's purchasing system shall constitute a determination—
Of the acceptability of any subcontract terms or conditions;
Of the allowability of any cost under this contract; or
To relieve the Contractor of any responsibility for performing this contract.
No subcontract or modification thereof placed under this contract shall provide for payment on a cost-plus-a-percentage-of-cost basis, and any fee payable under cost-reimbursement type subcontracts shall not exceed the fee limitations in FAR 15.404-4(c)(4)(i).
The Contractor shall give the Contracting Officer immediate written notice of any action or suit filed and prompt notice of any claim made against the Contractor by any subcontractor or vendor that, in the opinion of the Contractor, may result in litigation related in any way to this contract, with respect to which the Contractor may be entitled to reimbursement from the Government.
The Government reserves the right to review the Contractor's purchasing system as set forth in FAR Subpart 44.3.
Paragraphs (c) and (e) of this clause do not apply to the following subcontracts, which were evaluated during negotiations: ____________.

It is the policy of BAE that its acquisition and retention of business be conducted in accordance with the highest standards of honesty and integrity. Sales of its products and services must be free from even the perception that favorable treatment was sought or received, or that questionable activities were engaged in or condoned. Purchases of supplies, materials and services from Sellers must be conducted with the same high standards. Severe criminal and civil penalties may be imposed on corporations and the individuals involved for violation of laws, federal and state, that affect the conduct of business under this Agreement. The Government has amended the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) to include Clause 52.203-13 Contractor Code of Business Ethics and Conduct. This clause requires: (i) a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and, (ii) compliance with mandatory disclosure reporting. Although the FAR flow-down of this clause to Sellers is subject to dollar and performance period thresholds, Buyer and BAE highly recommend that Seller comply with FAR 52.203-15 regardless of the purchase order value or length of the period of performance. Establishing a Business Ethics and Conduct program is in the best interest of the Seller, Buyer, BAE Systems, and the Government. BAE Systems Ethics Program can provide guidance for establishing an Ethics program upon request. Point of Contact is BAE Systems Ethics Officer at 757-494-2993.
