- THIS IS THE SECOND FOLLOW-ON PORTION OF HSCG38-07-Q-101026- SEE THE THIRD SECTION THAT FOLLOWS ALSO. 7.0 EXCLUSIONS Landing Gear received which indicate obvious misuse, cannibalization or severe damage due to mishandling or crash damage may dictate an exclusion from the prices specified in the schedule. The landing gear shall be inspected, repair costs determined, and authorization to proceed obtained from the Contracting Officer prior to commencement of repair. If the prospective contractor considers the landing gear a candidate for exclusion, he shall immediately notify the Contracting Officer. (Verbal notification to the Contracting Officer shall be confirmed in writing). The prospective contractor shall submit a proposal to cover the cost of the exclusion repair (the costs over and above the firm-fixed repair price) within thirty (30) calendar days after such notification. The proposal shall include: nomenclature, part numbers, cost and quantity of replacement parts, total labor hours, and a delivery schedule. Prospective Contractor shall provide backup documentation to support the cost of the parts (other than the replacement parts identified within the schedule) such as invoices or catalogs. The prospective contractor?s delivery obligation for the landing gear identified shall be suspended as of the date of notice to the Contracting Officer. The Contracting Officer will (within 30 calendar days after receipt of the prospective contractor?s written proposal) make a written determination (subject to the ?Disputes? Clause) as to whether or not this is an ?exclusion?, a written modification shall be issued that will authorize the prospective contractor to proceed with the repair at the agreed upon cost and delivery schedule. No authorization to proceed is valid until the Contracting Officer issues a modification to the delivery order with instructions to the prospective contractor and additional funding provided. 8.0 SERVICE BULLETINS Service bulletins are subject to change during the contract period of performance.All service bulletins if not previously accomplished, shall be identified to the Contracting Officer. The contractor is responsible for obtaining service bulletins. Upon receipt of components requiring incorporation of such service bulletins, the contractor shall prepare a firm fixed price proposal IAW instructions listed below. Service bulletins created and incorporated during performance of this requirement may create new part number configurations, which supersede the previous configuration. In cases where the old configuration cannot be modified to the new, the new part number may be added to the contract. The contractor shall notify and request disposition instructions from the Contracting Officer for superseded parts, which have been removed and replaced by new part number configurations. Upon receipt of notification from the Contracting Officer that a service bulletin is required, the contractor shall submit, within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the notification, a firm-fixed price proposal for an incremental charge to be assessed each time the service bulletin is incorporated in a component. The proposal shall contain a breakdown of material and labor costs including hours, labor categories, labor rates, and applicable mark ups. The incremental charge agreed to for incorporation of a service bulletin shall apply only to those components into which the Offeror incorporates a required service bulletin, not those into which the service bulletin has been previously incorporated. Upon agreement of an incremental charge and issuance of a contract modification to reflect this change, the service bulletin shall be incorporated into each subsequent component received at the repair facility if said service bulletin has not already been incorporated. When service bulletin incorporation changes the Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) part number, the new part number shall be added to the contract. The same procedures apply if removal of service bulletins is required. 9.0 F.O.B. PointF.O.B.
