It specifies that inspection and acceptance will occur at the destination, with the contractor bearing the risk of loss until acceptance. Packaging must include contractor name, contract number, item description, and lot/batch numbers, adhering to the Engineering Release Record.

A significant portion details the submission and approval process for preproduction samples, requiring the contractor to provide 10 cushion spacers. The contractor must notify the Contracting Officer before production of samples, which are subject to government inspection and approval within 10 calendar days of receipt. Disapproved samples require contractor-borne modifications or resubmissions, potentially affecting delivery schedules and contract prices. Failure to deliver or gain approval for preproduction samples can result in default. The government may waive preproduction sample requirements if identical or similar supplies have been previously accepted. Costs incurred before preproduction sample approval are at the contractor's risk and are not allocable for progress payments or termination settlements. Both preproduction and production quantities must be produced at the same facility.
