As prescribed in 5311.304-90(a), insert the following provision, substantially as written, in Section L:
NEW MANUFACTURED MATERIAL (AFMC) (OCT 2008)
New material means material manufactured by a qualified manufacturer, which has a Government-approved in-process quality system meeting the requirements of this solicitation. Previously manufactured material is considered “new material” as long as it in new and unused condition and held by the actual manufacturer, the system contractor or subsidiary, or a successor or distributor. This solicitation does not contemplate surplus material. In the event surplus material is offered and it is determined to be the best value to the Government, a determination shall be made as to its acceptability. The urgency of the instant action and the time necessary for evaluation, however, may preclude consideration of surplus material for this award; in the event surplus material is determined to be acceptable, the solicitation will be amended announcing any supplemental inspection requirements and revising the due date for receipt of proposals. This statement applies to (insert contract line item(s)).
