3. Arms Export Control may be required and when applicable the technical data package will be provided via the DOD safe site, https://safe.apps.mil/ , which contains technical data whose export is restricted by the arms export control act (TITLE 22 U.S.C., SEC 2751 ET SEQ.) or Executive Order 12470.

Export Control requires the applicable certifications to be current for both the quoter and manufacturer. The offeror and any source(s) of supply it will use for contract performance must have an active United States/Canada Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification to access export-controlled data. DLA does not intend to delay award in order for an ineligible offeror its source(s) supply to apply for and receive authority approval to access the export-controlled data.
4. For Long Lead Time Items and/or Long Term Contracts, the parties recognize there is a risk that part(s) or component(s) required for performance of the contract/purchase order may become unavailable due to obsolescence. Upon receipt of the contract/purchase order, contractor is responsible for verifying its sources of supply. If at any time during the course of performance contractor becomes aware that it is unable to procure a part or component necessary to fulfill the requirements of the contract, the contractor shall notify the contracting officer in writing within thirty days. Notification shall include contractors recommendation for correction of the problem, if possible, with estimated cost and schedule impact, if any. The contracting officer will determine the appropriate course of action and provide direction to the contractor.

When requested by the Government, the Contractor shall assist the AvMC Systems Readiness Directorate (SRD) or the cognizant Contract Administration Office in evaluating PQDRs and exhibits for defects reported on items manufactured under this contract to determine the root cause for deficiencies. A final report should be given no later than 75 days after receipt of PQDR exhibit. Corrective action and Preventative Action to preclude recurrence of discrepancies shall be an integral part of the Contractor’s Quality Program. The contractor shall not bill the Government as a direct charge for cooperation with the Government in the resolution of any PQDRs.

Lockheed Martin shall not contact any other Government personnel other than the person(s) identified. Contacting any Government personnel other than the individual(s) identified above could result in an organizational conflict of interest (COI).
8. Army Contract Writing System (ACWS) Transition Information for Contractors:
DLA Huntsville utilizes the U.S. Army’s Contracting Enterprise (ACE) systems. ACE is in the process of deploying new solicitation and contract writing software to army contracting offices worldwide. Known as the Army Contract Writing System (ACWS), this modern software suite will soon replace most existing army contract writing systems, including the system used to create and release this contract. During this transition period, contractors are hereby advised:
   A. The contracting office may use any combination of contract writing systems to generate distributable copies of this contract during its period of performance, as well as any subsequent modifications or orders (if applicable). As a result:
      i. Subsequent documents you receive may appear noticeably different than the original award or previous contractual documents from the same contracting office.
      ii. A change between contract writing systems may cause important information concerning contract terms and conditions to take on different formatting or appear in different parts of later documents issued.
      iii. Contractors shall ensure Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems and personnel interacting with this contract are prepared to identify and respond appropriately to differences between document versions.
   B. The government does not intend to use the shift between contract writing systems to effect any changes to contract terms and conditions. Therefore:
      i. Contractors should view changes to terms or conditions between document versions as system-generated and potentially erroneous unless accompanied by narrative(s) designating such changes as deliberate and desired.
      ii. Contractors shall inform the contracting officer listed on the first page of the most recent document issued for guidance regarding any suspected or observed inadvertent or system-generated changes (e.g. noticing something missing in a new conformed copy).
      iii. The government will correct any inadvertent or system-generated changes, additions, or omissions discovered by either party, via bilateral modification, at no cost to the contractor.
      iv. The terms and conditions contained in the latest document reflecting deliberate action by the contracting officer (e.g. the last conformed copy of the award not affected by the observed issue) will take precedence until these problems are corrected.
   C. In the unlikely event award information is corrupted or mutilated during system migration and replacement or re-issuance of this contract is necessary for continued contract administration, the contracting officer will:
      i. Issue a continuation contract in accordance with DFARS 204.1601(c) and DFARS PGI 204.1601(c), carrying over all terms and conditions from the last-known version of this contract accurately reflecting mutual agreement of the parties.

      ii. Incorporate the last-known version of this contract accurately reflecting mutual agreement of the parties as an attachment to the replacement or continuation contract for future reference.
      iii. Ensure any such reissuance or continuance is properly reported to preserve the integrity of contractor performance measurement data, if any (E.G. FAPIIS, CPARS).
9. Small Business Subcontracting Plan: the contractor shall continue participation in the Department of Defense (DoD) Test Program for a Comprehensive Subcontracting Plan with the Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA). A small business subcontracting plan will not be required by the Government for this subsumable, increment add-on, or delivery order contracts unless the contractor fails to meet the goals outlined in the comprehensive subcontracting plan agreement with DCMA.
10. Progress Payments FAR 52.232-16 may be included in the resulting contract SPRRA2-24-D-0011. If progress payments are desired, they shall be expressly requested in the proposal. Progress Payments will be agreed to during negotiations and added to each applicable delivery order.
11. Additional narratives, clauses, and provisions that are applicable to each part are listed in Enclosure 1.
