SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Background

    This case was initiated due to a response by the Director, Defense 
Procurement and Acquisition Policy (DPAP), to a DoD Inspector General 
Report entitled ``Accuracy of Mechanization of Administration Services 
Accounts Payable Information,'' dated August 14, 2008. In particular, 
DPAP concurred with a recommendation in the report which stated that 
DFARS Appendix F should be updated to address changes brought on by 
deployment of Wide Area Workflow (WAWF), Item Unique Identification, 
and Radio Frequency Identification.
    The proposed rule provides new coverage on the use, preparation, 
and distribution of the electronic WAWF receiving report which is the 
primary method for documenting acceptance and distribution of 
shipments. The rule also addresses WAWF capability to provide the 
following:

--Item Unique Identification (IUID). When the clause at DFARS 252.211-
7003, Item Identification and Valuation, is used in the contract and 
requires reporting of IUID data, WAWF captures the IUID data and 
forwards the data to the IUID registry after acceptance. WAWF may be 
used to report Unique Item Identifiers (UIIs) at the line item level 
and also UIIs embedded at the line item level.
--Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). When the clause at DFARS 
252.211-7006, Radio Frequency Identification, is used in the contract, 
WAWF will capture the RFID information and forward the data to the 
receiving location. Using WAWF is the only way a contractor can comply 
with the clause to furnish RFID data via an Advance Shipping Notice.

    Insertion of the new WAWF coverage necessitates relocating and 
renumbering existing coverage for use, preparation, and distribution of 
the DD Form 250 Material Inspection and Receiving Report, and the DD 
Form 250-1 Tanker/Barge Material Inspection and Receiving Report.

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    DoD does not expect this proposed rule to have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the 
meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq. The 
proposed rule provides guidance on the preparation and use of the 
electronic WAWF Receiving Report which is now required for use in most 
contracts. Additionally, the rule addresses WAWF capability and 
instructions to comply with reporting requirements for IUID and RFID 
data submissions.
    DoD has prepared an Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis which 
is summarized as follows. The objective of the rule is to facilitate 
maximum use of WAWF by providing detailed guidance. DFARS Subpart 
232.70, Electronic Submission and Processing of Payment Requests and 
Receiving Reports, prescribes policies for submitting and processing 
payment requests in electronic form to comply with 10 U.S.C. 2227, 
Electronic Submission and Processing of Claims for Contract Payments. 
WAWF is the DoD system for contractors to submit payment and receiving 
reports in electronic format.
    The proposed rule affects all DoD contractors who are not exempt 
from using WAWF, however, the exact number of small entities is 
unknown. Exempt classes of contracts are those that are listed under 
the seven categories of contracts at DFARS 232.7002, Policy.
    Recordkeeping required is limited to that required to properly 
invoice and record shipping and receiving information under Government 
contracts. Preparation of these records requires clerical and analytic 
skills to create the documents and input them into the electronic WAWF 
system.
    The rule does not duplicate, overlap, or conflict with any other 
Federal rules. There are no known significant alternatives to the rule 
that would meet the requirements of 10 U.S.C. 2227, Electronic 
Submission and Processing of Claims for Contract Payments, and minimize 
any significant economic impact of the rule on small entities. Any 
impact on small business is expected to be beneficial from providing 
detailed preparation and distribution guidance for use of WAWF.
    DoD invites comments from small businesses and other interested 
parties on the expected impact of this rule on small entities. DoD will 
also consider comments from small entities concerning existing 
regulations in subparts affected by this rule in accordance with 5 
U.S.C. 610. Interested parties must submit such comments separately and 
should cite 5 U.S.C. 610 (DFARS Case 2009-D023) in correspondence.

C. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The Paperwork Reduction Act (Pub. L. 96-511) applies because 
information collection requirements in the proposed rule at DFARS 
Appendix F are currently approved under Office of Management and Budget 
Control Number 0704-0248. The current approval took into consideration 
use of the automated WAWF system so inclusion of the WAWF guidance into 
Appendix F adds no new information collection requirements.

List of Subjects in 48 CFR Appendix F to Chapter 2

    Government procurement.

Ynette R. Shelkin,
Editor, Defense Acquisition Regulations System.

    Therefore, DoD proposes to amend 48 CFR appendix F to chapter 2 as 
follows:

Appendix F to Chapter 2--Material Inspection and Receiving Report

    1. The authority citation for 48 CFR appendix F to chapter 2 
continues to read as follows:

    Authority:  41 U.S.C. 421 and 48 CFR chapter 1.

PART 1--INTRODUCTION

    2. Revise section F-101 to read as follows:

F-101 General

    (a) This appendix contains procedures and instructions for the use, 
preparation, and distribution of the Wide Area WorkFlow Receiving 
Report (WAWF RR) in Wide Area Workflow (WAWF), the DD Form 250, 
Material Inspection and Receiving Report (MIRR) and (DD Form 250 series 
equivalents) and commercial shipping/packing lists used to document 
Government contract quality assurance.
    (b) The electronic WAWF RR is the primary method for documenting 
acceptance and distribution of shipments. The paper DD Form 250 MIRR is 
mostly used on an exception basis.
    3. Revise section F-102 to read as follows:

[[Page 56963]]

F-102 Applicability

    (a) DFARS 252.232-7003, Electronic Submission of Payment Requests 
and Receiving Reports, requires payment requests and receiving reports 
using WAWF in most cases.
    (b) The provisions of this appendix also apply to supplies or 
services acquired by DoD when the clause at 252.246-7000, Material 
Inspection and Receiving Report, is included in the contract.
    (c) When DoD provides quality assurance or acceptance services for 
non-DoD activities, use the instructions in this appendix, unless 
otherwise specified in the contract.
    4. Amend section F-103 by revising paragraphs (a) introductory 
text, (a)(6), (b), and (c), and adding new paragraph (e) to read as 
follows:

F-103 Use

    (a) The WAWF RR and the DD Form 250 MIRR are multipurpose reports 
used--
* * * * *
    (6) As a contractor invoice.
    (i) WAWF provides an option for creating a combined invoice and 
WAWF RR through use of the invoice and receiving report combo option; 
and
    (ii) The DD Form 250 MIRR may also be used as an invoice (see F-
406(b)); and
* * * * *
    (b) Do not use the WAWF RR or the DD Form 250 MIRR for shipments--
    (1) By subcontractors--Unless the subcontractor is shipping 
directly to the Government; or
    (2) Of contract inventory.--However, WAWF may be used for transfer 
of Government property using the property transfer function.
    (c) The contractor prepares the WAWF RR or the DD Form 250 MIRR, 
except for entries that an authorized Government representative is 
required to complete. When using a paper DD Form 250 MIRR, the 
contractor shall furnish sufficient copies of the completed form, as 
directed by the Government representative.
* * * * *
    (e) In addition to the above uses, the WAWF RR provides additional 
functionality, not provided by the paper DD Form 250 MIRR, that 
complies with the following requirements:
    (1) Item Unique Identification (IUID), when the clause at 252.211-
7003, Item Identification and Valuation is used in the contract, 
reporting of IUID data is required. WAWF captures the IUID data and 
forwards the data to the IUID registry after acceptance. WAWF may be 
used to report Unique Item Identifiers (UIIs) at the line item level 
and also UIIs embedded at the line item level.
    (2) Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), when the clause at 
252.211-7006, Radio Frequency Identification, is used in the contract, 
WAWF will capture the RFID information and forward the data to the 
receiving location. Using WAWF is the only way a contractor can comply 
with the clause to furnish RFID data via an Advance Shipping Notice 
(ASN).
    5. Amend section F-104 by revising paragraph (a) and the heading of 
paragraph (b) to read as follows:

F-104 Application

(a) WAWF RR and DD Form 250 MIRR
    (1) Use the WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR for delivery of contract 
line, subline, exhibit line, or exhibit subline items. Do not use the 
WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR for those exhibit line or exhibit subline 
items on a DD Form 1423, Contract Data Requirements List, that indicate 
no DD Form 250 MIRR is required.
    (2) If the shipped to, marked for, shipped from, mode of shipment, 
contract quality assurance and acceptance data are the same for more 
than one shipment made on the same day under the same contract, 
contractors may prepare one WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR to cover all 
such shipments.
    (3) If the volume of the shipment precludes the use of a single 
car, truck, or other vehicle, prepare a separate WAWF RR or DD Form 250 
MIRR for the contents of each vehicle.
    (4) When a shipment is consigned to an Air Force activity and the 
shipment includes items of more than one federal supply class (FSC) or 
material management code (MMC), prepare a separate WAWF RR or DD Form 
250 MIRR for items of each of the FSCs or MMCs in the shipment. 
However, the cognizant Government representative may authorize a single 
WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR, listing each of the FSCs or MMCs included 
in the shipment on a separate continuation sheet. The MMC appears as a 
suffix to the national stock number applicable to the item.
    (5) Consolidation of Petroleum Shipments on a Single WAWF RR or DD 
Form 250 MIRR.
    (i) Contiguous United States. (A) Contractors may consolidate 
multiple car or truck load shipments of petroleum made on the same day, 
to the same destination, against the same contract line item, on one 
WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR. To permit verification of motor 
deliveries, assign each load a load number which can be identified to 
the shipment number in Block 2 of the DD Form 250 MIRR. Include a 
shipping document (commercial or Government) with each individual load 
showing as a minimum--
    (1) The shipper;
    (2) Shipping point;
    (3) Consignee;
    (4) Contract and line item number;
    (5) Product identification;
    (6) Gross gallons (bulk only);
    (7) Loading temperature (bulk only);
    (8) American Petroleum Institute gravity (bulk only);
    (9) Identification of carrier's equipment;
    (10) Serial number of all seals applied; and
    (11) Signature of supplier's representative.
    (B) When acceptance is at destination, the receiving activity 
retains the shipping document(s) to verify the entries on the consignee 
copy of the DD Form 250 MIRR forwarded by the contractor (reference F-
401, Table 1) before signing Block 21b.
    (ii) Overseas. The same criteria as for contiguous United States 
applies, except the consolidation period may be extended, if acceptable 
to the receiving activity, shipping activity, Government finance 
office, and the authorized Government representative having cognizance 
at the contractor's facility. In addition, the contractor may include 
more than one contract line item in each WAWF RR or DD Form 250 MIRR if 
the shipped to, marked for, shipped from, mode of shipment, contract 
quality assurance, and acceptance data are the same for all line items.
    (6) Consolidation of Coal Shipments on a Single WAWF RR or DD 250 
MIRR. (i) Contractors may consolidate multiple railcar or truck 
shipments of coal made on the same day, to the same destination, 
against the same contract line items, on one WAWF RR or DD 250 MIRR. To 
permit verification of truck deliveries, assign each load a load number 
which can be identified to the shipment number in Block 2 of the DD 
Form 250 MIRR and the analytical test report. Include a commercial 
shipping document with each individual truck load showing as a 
minimum--
    (A) The shipper;
    (B) The name or names;
    (C) Location and shipping point of the mine or mines from which the 
coal originates;
    (D) The contract number;
    (E) The exact size of the coal shipped; and
    (F) A certified weighmaster's certification of weight for the 
truckload.
    (ii) Include a waybill with each rail shipment showing the 
identical

[[Page 56964]]

information. To permit verification of rail deliveries, identify each 
railcar number comprising the shipment to the shipment number in Block 
2 of the DD Form 250 MIRR and the analytical test report. When 
acceptance is at destination, the receiving activity must retain the 
shipping document(s) to verify the entries on the consignee copy of the 
DD Form 250 MIRR.
(b) DD Form 250-1 Tanker/Barge MIRR
* * * * *

PART 3--PREPARATION OF THE WIDE AREA WORKFLOW RECEIVING REPORT 
(WAWF RR)

    6. Revise section F-301 to read as follows:

F-301 Preparation Instructions

(a) General
    (1) Preparation instructions and training for the WAWF RR are 
available at http://wawftraining.com. The instructions on preparing a 
WAWF RR are part of the contractor training section.
    (2) Prime contractors may direct subcontractors to prepare and 
submit documents in WAWF by giving their subcontractors access to WAWF 
via Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) code extension.
    (3) If the contract is in Electronic Document Access, DoD's 
contract repository, then the WAWF system will automatically populate 
the Issued By, Admin By, and Pay Office Department of Defense Activity 
Address (DoDAAC) codes.
    (i) When source acceptance is required, WAWF will populate the 
Inspect By with the Admin By DoDAAC code. The contractor will need to 
change this DoDAAC if Government Source Inspection is performed at 
other than the Admin By.
    (ii) Any fields that have been pre-filled may be changed.
    (iii) WAWF will also verify that CAGE codes are valid and active in 
the CCR (Central Contractor Registration) and that DoDAACs, and 
Military Assistance Program Address Codes (MAPACs) are valid in the 
DAAS (Defense Automatic Addressing System).
    (4) WAWF will populate the address information for CAGE codes, 
DODAACs and MAPACs from CCR and DAAS. These are the official DoD sites 
for address information. Any fields that have been pre-filled may be 
changed or additional information added.
    (5) Do not include classified information in WAWF.
(b) Completion Instructions
    (1) CONTRACT NO./DELIVERY ORDER NO.
    (i) Enter the 13-position alpha-numeric basic Procurement 
Instrument Identification Number (PIIN) of the contract. When 
applicable, enter the four-position alpha-numeric call/order serial 
number that is supplementary to the 13-position basic PIIN. This number 
is also referred to as the Supplementary Procurement Instrument 
Identification Number (SPIIN). Use SPIINs for (also see Subpart 
204.70)--
    (A) Delivery orders under indefinite-delivery type contracts;
    (B) Orders under basic ordering agreements; and
    (C) Calls under blanket purchase agreements.
    (ii) Except as indicated in paragraph (b)(1)(iii) of this section, 
do not enter supplementary numbers used in conjunction with basic PIINs 
to identify--
    (A) Modifications of contracts and agreements;
    (B) Modifications to calls or orders; or
    (C) Document numbers representing contracts written between 
contractors.
    (iii) When shipping instructions are furnished and shipment is made 
before receipt of the confirming contract modification (SF 30, 
Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract), enter a comment in 
the Misc. Info Tab to this effect.
    (iv) For DoD delivery orders on non-DoD contracts, enter the non-
DoD contract number in the contract number field and enter the DoD 
contract number in the delivery order field.
    (2) SHIPMENT NO.
    (i) The shipment number has a three-position alpha character prefix 
and a four-position numeric or alpha-numeric serial number.
    (A) The prime contractor shall control and assign the shipment 
number prefix. The shipment number shall consist of three alphabetic 
characters for each ``Shipped From'' address. The shipment number 
prefix shall be different for each ``Shipped From'' address and shall 
remain constant throughout the life of the contract. The prime 
contractor may assign separate prefixes when shipments are made from 
different locations within a facility identified by one ``Shipped 
From'' address.
    (B) Number the first shipment 0001 for shipments made under the 
contract or contract and order number from each ``Shipped From'' 
address, or shipping location within the ``Shipped From'' address. 
Consecutively number all subsequent shipments with the identical 
shipment number prefix. While shipments should be created sequentially, 
they may be released and accepted out of sequence.
    (1) Use alpha-numeric serial numbers when more than 9,999 numbers 
are required. Serially assign alpha-numeric numbers with the alpha in 
the first position (the letters I and O shall not be used) followed by 
the three-position numeric serial number. Use the following alpha-
numeric sequence:

A000 through A999 (10,000 through 10,999)
B000 through B999 (11,000 through 11,999)
Z000 through Z999 (34,000 through 34,999)

    (2) When this series is completely used, the shipment number prefix 
will have to be changed. WAWF will not allow duplicate shipment numbers 
to be created against a contract or delivery order.
    (ii) The prime contractor shall control deliveries and on the final 
shipment of the contract shall end the shipment number with a ``Z.'' 
Where the final shipment is from other than the prime contractor's 
plant, the prime contractor may elect either to-
    (A) Direct the subcontractor making the final shipment to end that 
shipment number with a ``Z''; or
    (B) Upon determination that all subcontractors have completed their 
shipments, to correct the WAWF RR (see F-304) covering the final 
shipment made from the prime contractor's plant by addition of a ``Z'' 
to that shipment number.
    (iii) Contractors follow the procedures in F-305 to use commercial 
invoices.
    (3) DATE SHIPPED. Enter the date the shipment is released to the 
carrier or the date the services are completed. If the shipment will be 
released after the date of Contract Quality Assurance (CQA) and/or 
acceptance, enter the estimated date of release. When the date is 
estimated, enter an ``E'' in the ``Estim.'' Block after the date. Do 
not delay submission of the WAWF RR for lack of entry of the actual 
shipping date. Correction of the WAWF RR is not required to show the 
actual shipping date. Once the document is submitted the shipment date 
cannot be changed.
    (4) B/L TCN. When applicable, enter--
    (i) The commercial or Government bill of lading number after ``B/
L''; (WAWF provides the capability to separately and correctly identify 
the Government Bill of Lading (GBL) from a Commercial Bill of Lading 
(CBL). An authorized user will select whether the entered bill of 
lading number is either a GBL number or a CBL number).

[[Page 56965]]

    (ii) The transportation control number (TCN) must be a 17 alpha/
numeric digit min/max field and WAWF provides the capability to enter 
two (2) secondary transportation tracking numbers.
    (5) LINE HAUL MODE. Select the Line Haul Mode of Shipment code from 
a drop down menu in WAWF.
    (6) INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE POINT. Enter an ``S'' for Origin or 
``D'' for Destination. In addition to ``S'' and ``D'' WAWF allows 
acceptance at ``Other''. In WAWF, destination acceptance is performed 
by the ``Ship to'' DODAAC organization and ``Other'' permits the 
acceptance of destination documents at a location other than the Ship 
to. The goods or services will be shipped to one location and the 
paperwork will be routed to another location for the actual acceptance.
    (7) PRIME CONTRACTOR/CODE. The prime CAGE code to which the 
contract was awarded.
    (8) ADMINISTERED BY/CODE. Enter the Contract Administration Office 
(CAO) DoDAAC code cited in the contract.
    (9) SHIPPED FROM/CODE
    (i) Enter the CAGE or DoDAAC code of the ``Shipped From'' location. 
If same as the prime CAGE code, leave blank.
    (ii) For performance of services line items which do not require 
delivery of items upon completion of services, enter the code of the 
location at which the services were performed. If same as the prime 
CAGE code, leave blank.
    (10) FOB. Enter an ``S'' for Origin or ``D'' for Destination as 
specified in the contract. Enter an alphabetic ``O'' if the ``FOB'' 
point cited in the contract is other than origin or destination.
    (11) PAYMENT WILL BE MADE BY/CODE. Enter the payment office DoDAAC 
code cited in the contract.
    (12) SHIPPED TO/CODE. Enter the DoDAAC, MAPAC, or CAGE code from 
the contract or shipping instructions.
    (13) MARKED FOR/CODE. Enter the code from the contract or shipping 
instructions. WAWF will only accept valid DoDAAC, MAPAC, or CAGE codes. 
Contractors should use the WAWF Mark for Rep and Mark for Secondary 
fields for textual marking information specified in the contract.
    (14) ITEM NO. Enter the item number used in the contract. Use a 
valid four or six digit line item number under the Uniform Contract 
Line Item Numbering System (see 204.71). Line item numbers with six 
digits with numbers in the final two positions are not deliverable or 
billable.
    (15) STOCK/PART NUMBER/DESCRIPTION.
    (i) Enter the following for each line item:
    (A) The national stock number (NSN) or noncatalog number. If the 
contract contains NSNs as well as other identification (e.g. part 
numbers) the contractor should place the NSN information in the Stock 
Part Number field and the remaining numbers in the line item 
description field.
    (B) In the description field, if required by the contract for 
control purposes, enter: the make, model, serial number, lot, batch, 
hazard indicator, or similar description.
    (C) The Military Standard Requisitioning and Issue Procedures 
(MILSTRIP) numbers must be placed on the MILSTRIP Tab, not in the line 
item description field.
    (ii) For service line items, select ``SV'' for ``SERVICE'' in the 
type field followed by as short a description as is possible in no more 
than 20 additional characters in the description field. Some examples 
of service line items are maintenance, repair, alteration, 
rehabilitation, engineering, research, development, training, and 
testing. The ``Ship To'' Code and the Unit will have to be filled out. 
The ``Shipped To'' Code is the destination Service Acceptor Code for 
WAWF. If source inspected and accepted enter the service performance 
location as the Ship To Code.
    (iii) For all contracts administered by the Defense Contract 
Management Agency, with the exception of fast pay procedures, enter the 
gross weight of the shipment.
    (iv) In the description field enter the following as appropriate:
    (A) Enter in capital letters any special handling instructions/
limits for material environmental control, such as temperature, 
humidity, aging, freezing, shock, etc.
    (B) When a shipment is chargeable to Navy appropriation 17X4911, 
enter the appropriation, bureau control number (BCN), and authorization 
accounting activity (AAA) number (e.g., 17X4911-14003-104).
    (C) When the Navy transaction type code (TC), ``2T'' or ``7T'' is 
included in the appropriation data, enter ``TC 2T'' or ``TC 7T.''
    (D) When an NSN is required by but not cited in a contract and has 
not been furnished by the Government, the contractor may make shipment 
without the NSN at the direction of the contracting officer. Enter the 
authority for such shipment.
    (E) When Government furnished property (GFP) is included with or 
incorporated into the line item, enter the letters ``GFP.''
    (F) On shipments of Government furnished aeronautical equipment 
(GFAE) under Air Force contracts, enter the assignment AERNO control

     (16) QUANTITY SHIPPED/RECEIVED.

[[Page 56966]]

    (i) Enter the quantity shipped, using the unit of measure in the 
contract for payment. When a second unit of measure is used for 
purposes other than payment, enter the appropriate quantity in the 
description field.
    (ii) On the final shipment of a line item of a contract containing 
a clause permitting a variation of quantity and an underrun condition 
exists, the prime contractor shall choose the Ship Advice Code ``Z''. 
Where the final shipment is from other than the prime contractor's 
plant and an underrun condition exists, the prime contractor may elect 
to direct the subcontractor making the final shipment to choose the 
Ship Advice Code ``Z'';
    (iii) When the Government is performing destination acceptance, the 
acceptor should enter actual quantity received in apparent good 
condition in the ``Qty. Accepted'' field of the Acceptor Line Item Tab.
    (17) UNIT OF MEASURE. Enter the abbreviation of the unit measure as 
indicated in the contract for payment. Where a second unit of measure 
is indicated in the contract for purposes other than payment or used 
for shipping purposes, enter the second unit of measure in the 
description field. Authorized abbreviations are in the WAWF Unit of 
Measure Table Link. For example, LB for pound, SH for sheet.
    (18) UNIT PRICE. The contractor may, at its option, enter unit 
prices on all WAWF RR copies, except as a minimum:
    (i) The contractor shall enter unit prices for each item of 
property fabricated or acquired for the Government and delivered to a 
contractor as Government furnished property (GFP). Get the unit price 
from Section B of the contract. If the unit price is not available, use 
an estimate. The estimated price should be the contractor's estimate of 
what the items will cost the Government. When the price is estimated, 
enter ``Estimated Unit Price'' in the description field. However, if 
the contract has Item Unique Identification (IUID) requirements and the 
receiving report is being processed in WAWF, the unit price represents 
the acquisition cost that will be passed to the IUID registry. 
Therefore, the Unit Price is required (see the clause at 252.211-7003, 
Item Identification and Valuation). When delivering GFP via WAWF to 
another contractor, WAWF will initiate a property transfer if the 
contractor who is initiating the WAWF RR is also registered as a 
contractor property shipper in WAWF and the contractor receiving the 
property is also a contractor property receiver in WAWF.
    (ii) For clothing and textile contracts containing a bailment 
clause, enter the cited Government furnished property unit value as 
``GFP UNIT VALUE'' in the description field.
    (19) AMOUNT. WAWF will calculate and populate the amount by 
multiplying the unit price times the quantity.
    (20) CONTRACT QUALITY ASSURANCE (CQA).
    (i) The words ``conform to contract'' contained in the text above 
the signature block in the WAWF RR Header Tab relate to quality and to 
the quantity of the items on the report. Enter notes taking exception 
in the Misc. Info Tab comment field or on attached supporting documents 
with an appropriate block cross-reference.
    (ii) When a shipment is authorized under an alternative release 
procedure, the contractor will ``execute'' the alternative release 
procedure in WAWF by including the appropriate indicator in the 
electronic transaction rather than through inclusion or attachment of 
the text of the certificate. The alternative release procedure only 
substitutes for source inspection; Government acceptance must still be 
indicated by a Government official's signature on the WAWF RR.
    (iii) When contract terms provide for use of Certificate of 
Conformance and shipment is made under these terms, the contractors 
will ``execute'' a Certificate in WAWF by including the appropriate 
indicator in the electronic transaction rather than through inclusion 
or attachment of the text of the certificate. Government acceptance 
must still be indicated by a Government official's signature on the 
WAWF RR.
    (iv) ORIGIN.
    (A) The authorized Government representative must--
    (1) Place an ``X'' in the appropriate CQA and/or acceptance box(es) 
to show origin CQA and/or acceptance.
    (2) Sign and date;
    (3) Enter printed name, title, e-mail address, and commercial 
telephone number.
    (B) When fast pay procedures apply, the contractor or subcontractor 
shall select ``FAST PAY'' when creating the WAWF RR. When CQA is 
required, the authorized Government representative shall execute the 
block as required by paragraph (b)(20)(iv)(A) of this section.
    (v) DESTINATION.
    When CQA and acceptance or acceptance is at destination, the 
authorized Government representative must--
    (A) Place an ``X'' in the appropriate box(es);
    (B) Sign and date; and
    (C) Enter printed name, title, e-mail address, and commercial 
telephone number.
    (21) CONTRACTOR USE ONLY. Self explanatory.
    7. Revise section F-303 to read as follows:

F-303 Consolidated Shipments

    When individual shipments are held at the contractor's plant for 
authorized transportation consolidation to a single bill of lading, the 
contractor may prepare the WAWF RR at the time of CQA or acceptance 
prior to the time of actual shipment.
    8. Remove section F-304.
    9. Redesignate section F-305 as section F-304 and revise it to read 
as follows:

F-304 Correction Instructions

    Functionality for correcting a WAWF RR is being developed. 
Preparation instructions and training for corrections will be available 
at http://wawftraining.com once the functionality is deployed. The 
instructions will be part of the contractor training.
    10. Redesignate section F-306 as section F-305 and revise it to 
read as follows:

F-305 Invoice Instructions

    Contractors shall submit payment requests and receiving reports in 
electronic form, unless an exception in 232.7002 applies. Contractor 
submission of the material inspection and receiving information 
required by this appendix by using the WAWF electronic form (see 
paragraph (b) of the clause at 252.232-7003) fulfills the requirement 
for a DD Form 250 MIRR.
    11. Redesignate section F-307 as section F-306 and revise it to 
read as follows:

F-306 Packing List Instructions

    Contractors may also use a WAWF RR as a packing list. WAWF provides 
options to print the WAWF RR. These printed WAWF RRs may also be used 
if a signed copy is required.
    (a) WAWF provides a print capability for its WAWF RR. The printed 
WAWF RR can be identified by its distinctive format and by the text 
``Please look in WAWF for signed copy'' underneath the ``RECEIVING 
REPORT'' title at the top of each printed page. This printed copy may 
be used as a packing list. If needed, the signature can be verified by 
reviewing the signed WAWF RR in WAWF.
    (b) Also, the contractor can print a WAWF RR only after a signature 
is applied by the Government Inspector or Acceptor in WAWF. Copies 
printed will

[[Page 56967]]

be annotated with ``\\ original signed in WAWF\\'' in lieu of the 
inspector/acceptor's signature.
    12. Redesignate section F-308 as section F-307 and revise it to 
read as follows:

F-307 Receiving Instructions

    If CQA and acceptance or acceptance of supplies is required upon 
arrival at destination, see F-301(b)(20)(v) for instructions.
    13. In Appendix F to chapter 2, redesignate Parts 4 through 7 and 
the sections within those parts as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Old part or section                  New part or section
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part 4....................................  Part 5.
Section F-401.............................  Section F-502.

Part 6....................................  Part 7.
Section F-601.............................  Section F-701.
Part 7....................................  Part 8.
Section F-701.............................  Section F-801.
Section F-702.............................  Section F-802.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
