In effect, the warrantyis an obligation of the contractor to repair or replace equipment found defectiveduring the course of the warranty period. FAR and DFARS also providepolicies and procedures for tailoring the required warranties to thecircumstances of a particular procurement and for obtaining waivers whenneeded. For supplies and services—like spares and data—that do not meet thedefinition of a weapon system, warranties are elective provided they meet orexceed the foregoing requirements and are advantageous to the government. Awarranty of technical data (extended liability) should be included in thesolicitation and evaluated on its merits during the source selection.Consideration should also be given to whether non-conforming data should bereplaced or subject to a price adjustment. In designing the contract warrantyclauses, the support systems manager should follow these guidelines:• Provide a realistic mechanism for readministering the warranty.• Maximize the government's ability to use the warranty,considering PHS&T factors.8.4.11 Section J: List of AttachmentsLists of attachments are developed to expand on other sections of thesolicitation and contract. Particular attention needs to be given to theconsistency of definitions, the compatibility of cost eliminatingrelationships, the interface of equations, the establishment of contractmilestones, and the Order of Precedence clause. Areas of concern to thelogistician in Section J would be:• Logistics portion of the preliminary contract work breakdownstructure• Data requirements, both logistics data items and related dataupon which logistics actions are based• Support inputs to the life cycle cost math model• Support equipment exhibits8.4.12 Section K: Representations, Certifications, and OtherStatements of Offerors and QuotersThis section notifies contractors that they must submit selectedcertifications and statements as required by the Federal AcquisitionRegulation and other federal laws.
