  3. Acceptance of Goods or Services

    1. All Goods or Services provided by Seller under this Order shall be in accordance with the requirements of this Order, including all applicable exhibits and attachments, and shall be subject to rejection if such Goods or Services are nonconforming.

    3. Unless otherwise stated in the Order, the acceptance of any Goods or Services will be made by Buyer in writing. It is expressly agreed that payment by Buyer to Seller for Goods or Services provided under this Order shall not constitute acceptance.

    3. Buyer shall pay Seller after receipt of Seller’s proper invoices or vouchers for Goods or Services delivered and accepted, less any deductions provided for in this Order.

    5. If the Order is of a Labor Hour, T&M, or cost reimbursement type and contains labor category descriptions, each invoice shall contain the following certification signed by the Seller’s authorized representative:

      “This is to certify to the best of my knowledge that the qualifications of the individuals whose labor is being invoiced herein were performed during the period stated and meet the minimum labor category qualifications stated in the Order, including but not limited to any education or experience requirements, for the specific labor category in which their respective hours are being billed.”

  6. Shipping, Packing and Marking

    1. Except as otherwise provided on the face of this Order, transportation charges on Goods sold f.o.b. shipping point must be prepaid and invoiced to Seller. Transportation charges on Goods sold f.o.b. destination must be prepaid in all cases. No insurance or premium transportation costs will be allowed unless authorized in writing by Buyer’s Purchasing Representative. Risk of loss to Goods ordered hereunder, regardless of cause, shall be Seller’s responsibility until the Goods have been delivered in compliance with terms of transportation required by this Order. If Seller does not comply with the stated delivery schedule, Buyer may, in addition to any other rights which it may have at law or in equity, require delivery by the most expeditious way, and any charges resulting from the premium transportation shall be fully prepaid and absorbed by Seller. Title to all Goods passes at Buyer’s dock unless otherwise specified in this Order.

    2. Seller shall pack, mark and ship all Goods in accordance with the requirements of this Order and in compliance with all applicable transportation regulations and good commercial practice for protection against damage from weather and shipment, including any applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations for the packaging, labeling, transportation and shipping of hazardous materials. Seller shall secure the most advantageous transportation services and rates consistent therewith. No separate or additional charge shall be payable by Buyer for containers, crating, boxing, handling, storage or any other services unless specifically stated in this Order or otherwise agreed to by Buyer in writing.

  7. Non-US Origin Shipments

    1. For any Order issued to a Seller domiciled within the United States, the expectation is that Goods will ship to Buyer from the Seller’s facility within the United States. Unless otherwise specified in the Order, any shipments originating outside the customs territory of the United States will import under the terms of sale Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) Buyer facility Incoterms 2020. Seller shall communicate its customs clearance instructions to its international third-party supplier prior to arrival into the United States to avoid any delays in delivery to Buyer. Under no circumstances shall Buyer be listed as the importer of record (or consignee for shipments delivered via courier) on customs documents for any Orders shipped directly to Buyer from a foreign location and Seller expressly agrees to accept all liability associated with said customs entries for any such Orders.

    2. For any Order issued to a Seller domiciled outside the United States, the expectation is that Seller will deliver the Goods, cleared for export, at the Seller’s facility. Unless otherwise specified in the Order, any shipments originating outside the customs territory of the United States will import under the terms of sale Free Carrier (FCA) Seller facility Incoterms 2020. Under no circumstances shall Buyer be listed as the exporter of record and Seller expressly agrees to accept all liability associated with any export duties, taxes and customs clearance.

  8. Schedule – Seller shall strictly comply with the delivery or performance schedule specified in the Order. No acts of Buyer, including without limitation acceptance of late deliveries or performance, shall constitute a waiver of this provision. Seller shall immediately notify Buyer in writing of any actual or potential delay in the deliveries or performance of this Order and such notice shall include the actions being taken to overcome or minimize the delay and a revised schedule using the Seller’s best efforts; provided, however, that Buyer’s receipt of such notice shall not constitute a waiver of Buyer’s rights to timely deliveries and performance and remedies for any late deliveries or performance. Buyer reserves the right to cancel this Order without incurring any liability to Seller and without waiving any other remedies available if delivery or performance, as specified in the Order or on Buyer’s written shipping authorizations, is not completed.

  9. Inspection – Buyer (and Buyer’s customer, if applicable) through any authorized representatives, has the right at all reasonable times and places to inspect and test the Goods or Services being supplied under this Order, including those provided by Seller’s suppliers. Buyer assumes no contractual obligation to perform any inspection or test unless otherwise specifically set forth in the Order. Buyer’s failure to inspect or test any Goods or Services shall not relieve Seller from responsibility for any defective or nonconforming Goods or Services. If any inspection or evaluation is made by Buyer or its customer on the premises of Seller or any of Seller’s suppliers, Seller or its suppliers shall provide at no additional charge reasonable access to facilities and assistance for the safety and convenience of the personnel conducting any inspection or test. Seller shall maintain proper inspection records, which shall be made available to Buyer upon request.

  10. Warranty

    1. Seller warrants to Buyer, its successors and assigns, that all Goods provided hereunder shall be (i) merchantable, (ii) free from defects in material and workmanship, (iii) free from defects in design (unless the Goods are provided in accordance with Buyer’s design specifications), (iv) suitable for the purposes intended, (v) in compliance with all applicable specifications, drawings, and performance requirements, and that all Services provided hereunder shall be (i) free from defects in workmanship, (ii) suitable for the purposes intended, (iii) performed in a professional and workmanlike manner, and (iv) in compliance with all applicable specifications, drawings, and performance requirements. In addition, if this Order is for delivery of Goods, Seller shall also comply with all applicable warranties contained in Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code (Sale of Goods), in accordance with the governing law at Article 22.

    2. If any nonconformity under this warranty appears within one (1) year after final acceptance of the Goods or Services, Seller shall, at Buyer’s option, either (i) promptly and diligently repair, replace or correct (by re-performance or otherwise) such nonconformity at no cost to Buyer (including any transportation costs associated therewith), or, for Goods only, (ii) accept return of the Goods for credit or refund. If any repair, replacement or correction is not made in a timely manner to Buyer’s satisfaction, then the Buyer may, at its election and in addition to any other remedies available to Buyer at law or in equity, correct or have corrected such nonconformity at Seller’s expense.

  11. Counterfeit Electronic Parts

    1. For purposes of this Article, the term “electronic part” means an integrated circuit, a discrete electronic component (including, but not limited to, a transistor, capacitor, resistor, or diode) or a circuit assembly and includes any embedded software or firmware. The term “counterfeit electronic part” means an unlawful or unauthorized reproduction, substitution, or alteration that has been knowingly mismarked, misidentified, or otherwise misrepresented to be an authentic, unmodified electronic part from the original manufacturer, or a source with the express written authority of the original manufacturer or current design activity, including an authorized aftermarket manufacturer. Unlawful or unauthorized substitution includes used electronic parts represented as new, or the false identification of grade, serial number, lot number, date code, or performance characteristics. For purposes of this Article 11, the term “counterfeit electronic part” also means an electronic part for which credible evidence (including, but not limited to, visual inspection or testing) provides reasonable doubt that the electronic part is authentic.

    2. Seller shall only purchase electronic parts to be delivered or incorporated in the Goods to Buyer directly from the Original Component Manufacturer (OCM)/Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or through an OCM/OEM authorized distribution chain.

Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing with all relevant information if Seller becomes aware or suspects that it has furnished any counterfeit electronic parts under the Order. When requested by Buyer, the Seller shall provide all relevant OCM/OEM documentation that authenticates the traceability of the affected items to the applicable OCM/OEM.

    3. Seller shall establish and maintain an acceptable counterfeit electronic part detection and avoidance system. Seller shall also quarantine any counterfeit electronic parts and make them available for investigation by appropriate government authorities. Any suspected counterfeit electronic parts shall not be returned to the supply chain unless and until such parts are determined to be authentic.

    4. This Article applies in addition to any quality provision, specification, statement of work or other provision included in or incorporated into this Order addressing the authenticity of the electronic part. To the extent any such provisions conflict with this Article, this Article prevails.

    5. Seller shall not deliver any counterfeit electronic parts under this Order. If any counterfeit electronic parts are delivered or incorporated in the Goods under this Order, Seller shall, at its expense, promptly replace such counterfeit electronic parts with electronic parts conforming to the requirements of this Order. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Order, the Seller shall be liable for all costs relating to or associated with such counterfeit electronic parts including, without limitation, the Buyer’s costs of removing any counterfeit electronic parts, of installing replacement electronic parts and of any testing necessitated by the reinstallation of electronic parts after the counterfeit electronic parts have been replaced. The remedies contained in this Article are in addition to any remedies available to Buyer at law, in equity or under any other provision of this Order.

    6. Seller shall include this Article or an equivalent provision in any purchase orders or lower-tier subcontracts for the delivery of electronic parts that will be included in or incorporated in the Goods provided to Buyer hereunder.

    3. Seller shall adopt (or already have in place) policies and processes to (i) conduct a reasonable inquiry into the country of origin of any Conflict Minerals incorporated into any Goods provided under the Order, (ii) conduct due diligence of its supply chain, as necessary, to determine if any Conflict Minerals from the Conflict Region are incorporated into any Goods provided under the Order, and (iii) promptly notify Buyer if any Conflict Minerals from the Conflict Region are incorporated into any Goods provided under the Order. The Seller shall fully cooperate (at no cost to Buyer) with any inquiries conducted by Buyer or its customers to ensure compliance with this Article including, but not limited to, completing any applicable disclosure forms or surveys.

  13. Proprietary Information

    1. All specifications, information, data, drawings, software and other items furnished by Seller under the Order that are clearly marked with a restrictive or proprietary designation shall be handled by Buyer on a proprietary basis, but may be used and/or disclosed by Buyer solely for the purposes of Buyer’s contract with its customer. Seller agrees to promptly notify Buyer in writing of any pre-existing patents or any other similar form of protection which Seller may hold or know of which relates to the Goods or Services to be provided under this Order.

    2. If any pre-existing patents, inventions, copyrights, technology, designs, works of authorship, mask works, technical information, software, or other information or data of Seller (hereinafter “Seller’s Intellectual Property”) are used, included, or contained in the Goods or Services provided hereunder, Seller grants Buyer an irrevocable, transferable, non-exclusive, world-wide, royalty-free license to use Seller’s Intellectual Property with such Goods or Services.

    3.

All information, such as specifications and designs, as well as all drawings, tools, jigs, dies, fixtures, materials, and other items supplied or paid for by Buyer (hereinafter the “Buyer’s Property”) shall be and remain the sole property of Buyer, and Buyer shall have the right to enter Seller’s premises on a non-interference basis and remove any such property and Seller’s records with respect thereto at any time without being liable for trespass or for damages of any sort.

    2. Unless the Buyer otherwise consents in writing, the Buyer’s Property shall be used only in the performance of this Order and Seller may not use the Buyer’s Property to provide any goods or services to any third party. Nothing herein shall be construed or interpreted to limit or restrict the rights of the Government in or to the Buyer’s Property in accordance with applicable FAR and DFARS Clauses.

    3. Seller shall protect and maintain the Buyer’s Property in its possession or control and shall be responsible for all loss or damage thereto, except for normal wear and tear.

  15. Release of Information – Seller shall not publish or distribute any information developed under this Order nor make any news release about the existence or subject matter of this Order without Buyer’s prior written consent.

  16. Intellectual Property

    1. Seller warrants that the Goods delivered or Services performed under this Order which are not of Buyer’s design specifications shall be free and clear of infringement or misappropriation of any patent, copyright, trademark or other third party intellectual property rights. Except to the extent the Government assumes liability therefor, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Buyer and its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, customers, successors and assigns harmless from any and all expenses, liability and loss of any kind (including all costs and expenses including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of claims, suits or actions alleging such infringement or misappropriation, including proceedings under 28 U.S.C. § 1498, which claims, suits or actions Seller agrees to defend with counsel acceptable to Buyer. The Buyer agrees to give Seller written notice of any such suit or action promptly after such notice is received and Seller agrees to conduct, at its own expense, the entire defense thereof. Seller shall pay or reimburse all costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in enforcing this indemnity, including attorneys’ fees.

    2. Seller further agrees at its expense to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Buyer against all liens, security interests, and/or encumbrances whatsoever asserted against such Goods by others. To the extent that the Goods delivered hereunder are manufactured pursuant to Buyer’s design specifications, Seller hereby assigns to Buyer, without reservation, all patent rights, copyrights and trademark rights relating to the Goods and all related documents, models, computer drawings and other electronic expression, photographs, drawings, specifications or other materials (“Protected Materials”). Buyer, in turn, grants to Seller a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to reproduce the Protected Materials for purposes related solely and directly to the Seller’s performance of its obligations to Buyer hereunder. No other Protected Materials may be reproduced for any other purpose without the express written permission of Buyer. This non-exclusive license shall terminate immediately upon termination of the Order. Nothing herein shall be construed or interpreted to limit or restrict the rights of the Government in or to the Protected Materials in accordance with applicable FAR and DFARS Clauses.

    3. Seller shall replace or modify any infringing Goods with comparable Goods acceptable to Buyer of substantially the same form, fit and function to remove the source of infringement, and shall extend this provision to such comparable Goods. If the use or sale of any of the above items is enjoined as a result of such claim, suit or action, Seller, at no expense to Buyer, shall obtain for Buyer and Buyer’s customers the right to use and sell the items.

    4. Any invention or intellectual property first made, developed or conceived by Seller in the performance of this Order and/or which is derived from or based on the use of information supplied by Buyer, in whole or in part, alone or with others, shall be the sole property of Buyer, and Seller hereby conveys, transfers and assigns to Buyer all rights, title and interest in and to any such invention or intellectual property. Any original works of authorship created by Seller hereunder are considered “works made for hire” under U.S. Copyright Law (17 U.S.C. §101). This Order shall operate as an irrevocable assignment from Seller to Buyer of all rights to such inventions or intellectual property including all rights, title and interest throughout the world.

  17. Changes

    1. Buyer, by written notice, shall have the right at any time to (i) suspend all or any portion of Seller’s work for a period up to one hundred (100) Days, and/or (ii) make changes within the general scope of this Order that affect any one or more of the following:

      4. time or place of performance, inspection, delivery, or acceptance of Goods or Services; and

      5. amount of any Buyer-furnished or customer-furnished property or facilities.

    2. If any such suspension or change causes a change in the cost of, and/or time required for, performance of this Order, an equitable adjustment shall be made in the price or delivery schedule, or both, and this Order shall be modified in writing accordingly. Any claim by Seller for such an adjustment must be made in writing within twenty (20) Days from the date of receipt of a written order from Buyer’s Purchasing Representative directing such change (or 20 Days after the expiration/termination of the suspension).

    3. Nothing in this clause, including any disagreement with Buyer as to any equitable adjustment, shall excuse Seller from proceeding with this Order as changed. Any disagreement between the parties arising out of this clause shall be resolved in accordance with the clause entitled “Disputes Under This Order.”

    4. If this Order is placed under a Government Prime Contract, any equitable adjustment hereunder shall be in accordance with the cost principles enunciated in FAR Part 31 in effect as of the date thereof (as amended).

    5. No constructive changes: Any information, advice, approvals or instructions given by Buyer’s technical personnel or other representatives shall be deemed expressions of personal opinion only and shall not affect Buyer’s and Seller’s rights and obligations hereunder, and shall not be the basis for an equitable adjustment, unless set forth in a writing signed by Buyer’s Purchasing Representative which expressly states that it constitutes an amendment or change to this Order.

  18. Access to Records – Buyer, and, if applicable, the Government, shall have access to all technical and quality records of Seller’s performance hereunder. Nothing herein shall be construed or interpreted to limit or restrict the rights of the Government to audit Seller’s records in accordance with any applicable FAR and DFARS Clauses.

  19. Termination for Convenience

    1. Buyer, by written notice, may terminate this Order at any time, in whole or in part, without cause and/or for Buyer’s convenience, and such termination shall not constitute a default. In such event, Buyer shall have all rights and obligations accruing both at law and in equity, including Buyer’s rights to title and possession of any Goods for which payment has been made. Seller shall be reimbursed for any actual, reasonable, substantiated and allowable costs, plus a reasonable profit, for work performed to date of termination. In no event shall the amount of any such reimbursement exceed the then-current value of the Order. Buyer may take immediate possession of all work so performed upon notice of termination.

    2. Any termination settlement proposal shall be submitted to Buyer within sixty (60) Days from the effective date of the termination. If Seller fails to submit a termination settlement proposal within this time period, or any extension thereof granted by Buyer in writing, then Seller irrevocably and forever waives and releases any termination claim.

    3. If this Order is terminated as a result of the termination for convenience of Buyer’s Government Prime Contract, then the rights, duties, and obligations of the parties shall be determined in accordance with the applicable termination for convenience clause incorporated into this Order by the Supplemental Terms and Conditions.

  20. Termination for Default

    1. Buyer may, by written notice of default to Seller, terminate thisOrder in whole or in part if Seller fails to (i) deliver the Goods or perform the Services within the time specified in this Order or any extension thereof granted by Buyer in writing, (ii) perform any of the other provisions or meet any of the requirements of this Order, or (iii) make progress so as to endanger performance of this Order in accordance with its terms and, in either of the second or third circumstances, does not cure such failure within ten (10) Days after receipt of written notice thereof from Buyer (or such longer period as the Buyer may authorize in writing).

    2. If Buyer terminates this Order in whole or in part it may acquire, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, Goods or Services similar to those terminated. Seller shall be liable to Buyer for any excess cost for such similar Goods or Services, provided, however, that Seller shall continue performance of this Order to the extent not terminated hereunder and, provided further, that Buyer shall pay the price set forth in this Order for completed Goods or Services delivered and accepted.

    3. The rights and remedies of Buyer in this Article are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or in equity, or under this Order.

    4. If, after termination hereunder, it is later determined that Seller was not in default, then the rights and remedies of the parties shall be as if the Order was terminated for convenience under Article 19.

  21. Set-Off – Buyer shall be entitled at all times to set-off any amount owing at any time from Seller to Buyer against any amount payable at any time by Buyer to Seller.

Seller hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of such State and shall not raise any objection thereto (whether procedural, substantive or based on convenience).

Pending resolution or settlement of any dispute hereunder, Seller shall proceed diligently as directed by Buyer with the performance of this Order.

  24. Disputes Under A Government Prime Contract

    1. If the Contracting Officer of Buyer’s Government Prime Contract by a final decision interprets any provision or requirement of Buyer’s Prime Contract, and the same or substantially similar provision or requirement is contained in this Order, such interpretation shall be binding between Buyer and Seller, provided that Buyer affords Seller the opportunity to appeal such decision in Buyer’s name, and provided further that Seller provides Buyer any and all information requested by Buyer to justify Buyer’s verifying, supporting, or providing any and all certifications required by the Contract Disputes Act of 1978, 41 U.S.C. Chapter 71. Any such appeal brought by Seller shall be at the sole expense of Seller, who shall be solely responsible for the prosecution of such appeal. If Seller so appeals, Seller shall, upon Buyer’s written request, provide Buyer with advance copies of papers to be filed in such appeal and such other information, consultation, and opportunity to participate in the appeal as Buyer may request. As used in this provision, the term “appeal” shall include any and all proceedings taken by Seller under this provision before any board of contract appeals or federal courts.

    2. If Seller asserts a claim against Buyer for either damages or an equitable adjustment in a situation where the facts constituting such claim would also support a claim by Buyer against Buyer’s customer, prior to initiating any action or suit on such claim against Buyer in any court, if Buyer so authorizes, Seller shall pursue, to exhaustion of its administrative and judicial remedies, such claim in Buyer’s name and at Seller’s cost against Buyer’s customer.

    3. Any claims or disputes involving the Government will be governed solely by federal law.

    4. Except as may be expressly set forth with the Contracting Officer’s prior written consent, the Seller shall not acquire any direct claim or direct course of action against the Government.

    (1)  any (a) injury to any person, (b) damage to any property, or (c) violation of any applicable laws or regulations, arising from or related to Seller’s (or Seller’s subcontractors) performance of work in connection with this Order; or
    (2)  any negligent, reckless or willful act or omission by Seller hereunder; or

  36. Force Majeure – Neither Buyer nor Seller shall be liable for failure to perform under this Order if such failure is due to events which are beyond the reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of such party, and which intervene after the issuance of this Order and impede its performance, provided such failure to perform shall only be excused for the duration of such intervening event and shall be subject to the Buyer’s right to terminate this Order pursuant to Article 19. Examples of such Force Majeure events include, but are not limited to: a strike or labor dispute, war or act of war (whether or not an actual declaration thereof is made), insurrection, riot or civil commotion, act of public enemy, fire, flood, or other act of God, or any act of a governmental authority (including export restrictions). The party wishing to claim relief by reason of any of the said circumstances shall notify the other party in writing without delay on the intervention and cessation thereof. Buyer may reasonably adjust the delivery schedule due to the existence of a Force Majeure event. If Seller is the affected party, Seller shall notify Buyer within five (5) business days of the expected delay due to Force Majeure and include a detailed mitigation plan to lessen the impact thereof.

  37.

No other provision in this Order shall be construed to limit Seller’s liability for the unauthorized use or delivery of FLOSS hereunder.

  39. Waiver, Severability and Remedies

    1. The failure or delay of either party to insist on performance of any provision of this Order, or to exercise any right or remedy available hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver of that provision, right, or remedy in any later instance. Further, if any provision of this Order is or becomes void or unenforceable by operation of law, the remaining provisions shall be valid and enforceable.

    2. Unless otherwise expressly stated herein, the rights and remedies of both parties hereunder shall be in addition to their rights and remedies available at law or in equity; provided, however, that in no event shall Buyer be liable to Seller for any anticipatory profits or for any special (including multiple or punitive), indirect, incidental, or consequential damages howsoever arising.

  40. Entire Agreement – This Order, including any attachments and documents incorporated by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the Buyer and Seller, and supersedes all prior representations, agreements, understandings, and communications between Buyer and Seller related to the subject matter of this Order, whether oral or written.

Supplement 1 – Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Clauses

  1. When the products or services furnished are for use in connection with a U.S. Government prime contract or subcontract, in addition to the DRS General Purchase Order Terms and Conditions, the following clauses shall apply, as required by the terms of the prime contract or by operation of law or regulation. The effective version of each Federal Acquisition Regulation (hereinafter “FAR”) clause shall be the same version as that which appears in Buyer’s prime contract (as amended) or higher tier subcontract (as amended) under which this Order is a subcontract. For the acquisition of commercial items under Orders placed in support of, and charged to, a U.S. Government prime contract or subcontract, the only FAR clauses that are required by FAR 52.244-6 are those annotated with * after the FAR clause number. For the definition of a commercial item see FAR 2.101.
  2. In the event of a conflict between these FAR clauses and the General Terms and Conditions of Purchase, the FAR clauses shall control.
  3. Seller shall insert these clauses in selected lower tier subcontracts, either verbatim or in substance, and by incorporation-by-reference or otherwise as appropriate.
  4. In all clauses listed herein, the terms “Government,” “Contracting Officer,” and “Contractor” shall be deemed revised to suitably identify the contracting parties herein and effect the proper intent of the clause except where further clarified or modified below. The clauses identified by ** after the title shall have their original meaning as written in the FAR; when identified by *** after the title the terms “Government” and “Contracting Officer” shall also mean Buyer and Buyer’s Purchasing Representative. “Subcontractor,” however, shall mean “Seller’s subcontractor” under the Order. Note: the terms “Government” and “Contracting Officer” do not change in the following circumstances: (i) when a right, authorization, or obligation can be granted or performed only by the Government, or a Contracting Officer or his/her duly authorized representative; (ii) in the phrases Government property, Government-furnished property, and/or Government-owned property; (iii) when title to property is to be transferred directly to the Government; (iv) in any clauses relating to the audit of Seller’s financial records; and (v) in any clauses relating to patent rights, or rights in technical data or computer software.
  5. If any FAR clauses do not apply to a specific Order due to the subject matter thereof, such clauses are considered self-deleting. {Note: This self-deleting process does not apply to the CAS Clauses in Section L.}
