48 CFR Chapter 2


Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement; Material 
Inspection and Receiving Report (DFARS Case 2009-D023)

AGENCY: Defense Acquisition Regulations System, Department of Defense 
(DoD).

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: DoD is issuing a final rule amending the Defense Federal 
Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), Appendix F, Material 
Inspection and Receiving Report, to incorporate new procedures for 
using the electronic Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) Receiving Report.

DATES: Effective date: September 20, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Julian Thrash, telephone 703-602-
0310.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    DoD published a proposed rule in the Federal Register (75 FR 56961) 
on September 17, 2010, to amend DFARS Appendix F, Material Inspection 
and Receiving Report, to provide new coverage on the use, preparation, 
and distribution of the electronic WAWF receiving report, which is the 
primary method for documenting acceptance of supplies and services and 
for electronic invoicing. The rule also addressed 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 into Appendix F 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.

II. Discussion and Analysis

    In response to the proposed rule, DoD received comments from five 
respondents. A discussion of the comments follows.

A. Revise F-103, WAWF RR and DD Form 250

    Comment: Two respondents suggested changing the text at F-103(b)(2) 
for the transfer of Government property using the property transfer 
function. Another respondent recommended adding where training for the 
preparation of document types is available.
    Response: These recommendations are incorporated into the final 
rule.

B. Limitation on the Quantity of Embedded Items in WAWF

    Comment: A respondent asked if there was a limit on the quantity of 
embedded items at the line item level that may be reported in WAWF.
    Response: A quantity limit of 100 embedded items currently exists 
in the software capability, however, this limit

[[Page 58123]]

is subject to change in future versions of WAWF.

C. F-103(e)(2), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)

    Comment: A respondent suggested adding clarification on the use of 
RFID information.
    Response: As suggested, paragraph F-103(e)(2) is revised to clarify 
that the RFID information can be added either at submission or via the 
``WAWF Pack Later'' functionality.

D. F-104, Application

    Comment: A respondent asked about the meaning of ``consigned to'' 
at F-104(a)(4) and for clarification regarding use of a continuation 
sheet. The respondent stated that they have no control over how the 
continuation sheet appears or prints from WAWF.
    Response: The phrase ``consigned to'' is the one to whom a line 
item is given, transferred, or delivered for control. In regard to use 
of a continuation sheet, the format printed out from WAWF will suffice 
as long as the required contractor information is entered.

E. F-301, Preparation Instructions--General Comments

    Comment: Two respondents suggested, at paragraph F-301(a)(1), 
replacing ``contractor'' with ``vendor'' to be consistent with the 
label used on the training Web site provided in the proposed rule. A 
respondent suggested: (1) Revising F-301(a)(2) to reflect the creation 
of an extension to the prime Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE); 
(2) replacing, at paragraph F-301(a)(4), ``official DoD sites'' with 
``DoD definitive sources''; (3). adding text at paragraph F-
301(b)(1)(iii) to clarify that comments in the miscellaneous 
information tab will appear in the comments section of the printed WAWF 
receiving report; (4). changing, at paragraph F-301(b)(1)(iv), ``DoD 
contract number'' to ``DoD contract number and delivery order number''; 
and, (5) updating paragraph F-301(b)(3) to correctly refer to the data 
field as ``Estimated'' and reflect that data entry is a drop-down box.
    Response: The final rule is revised to incorporate these 
recommendations.

F. Inclusion of Shipping Documents

    Comment: A respondent requested at paragraph F-301(b)(2)(i), 
SHIPMENT NO., that contractors must always provide packaging 
documentation in their shipment containers. If contractors choose to 
provide their own packaging documentation they must ensure their 
documentation includes their shipment number data. The respondent 
recommended the addition of a statement that any document utilized as a 
packing list must include the shipment number information. 
Additionally, the respondent suggested revising the text with an 
example to clarify that the shipment number format requires first three 
data positions to be alpha, fourth position alpha-numeric and last 
three positions are numeric e.g., DFAR001 or DAR0001.
    Response: The recommendations are incorporated into the final rule.
    Comment: A respondent requested at paragraph F-301(b)(3), Date 
Shipped, that a ``MIRR clause does not identify electronic data 
submission timeline.'' The respondent recommended the DFARS MIRR 
language include the statement that the contractor will submit the 
completed MIRR via WAWF within one business day of material shipment. 
The respondent stated that material shipments missing shipment numbered 
data causes manual research in order to process the receipt acceptance.
    Response: The MIRR is completed at the time of delivery of goods or 
services and, for both WAWF and paper DD form 250s, copies of the MIRR 
accompany the shipment. Paragraph F-301(b)(3) is revised to add a 
reference to ``see F-303).''
    Comment: A respondent requested at paragraph F-305, Invoice 
instructions, adding a statement that contractors should ensure the 
packaging documentation includes a Government signed receiving report 
when the contract requires origin inspection and acceptance. The 
respondent further stated that contractors must include the signed 
document indicating material receipt acceptance has occurred in the 
container with the exception of material shipments that are approved 
for Alternate Release Procedures.
    Response: The final rule is revised to incorporate the 
recommendations.

G. F-301(b)(4)--Bill of Lading Information

    Comment: A respondent stated, at paragraph F-301(b)(4)(i), that 
bills of lading are obtained when an item is being scheduled to ship, 
and thus may not be available until after the item has been source 
inspected/accepted. The respondent recommended clearly stating that the 
field is not required prior to source inspection and acceptance, nor, 
in their opinion, should a receiving report correction be issued only 
for adding a bill of lading after it has been obtained. Further, the 
respondent suggested revising F-301(b)(4), to enter the commercial or 
Government bill of lading number after ``BL.''
    Response: Currently, the ``Bill of Lading Number'' field is not a 
mandatory field in WAWF. Additional changes to the Bill of Lading 
functionality may be made later on.

H. Line Haul Information Changes

    Comment: One respondent suggested at paragraph F-301(b)(5), Line 
Haul Mode, that this is an item that may not be stated accurately until 
after signature, when the item is scheduled for shipment, and 
recommended that this field not be required prior to source inspection/
acceptance.
    Response: There is flexibility in WAWF regarding this entry as 
``Line Haul Mode'' field is not a mandatory field.

I. Allow for WAWF Acceptance at ``Other'' Using Code ``D''

    Comment: Two respondents suggested that paragraph F-301(b)(6), 
Inspection and Acceptance Point, be changed from ``WAWF allows 
acceptance at Other'' to ``WAWF allows acceptance at Other (O).'' Two 
respondents suggested adding, that for purposes of conforming to 
contract, ``0'' is equivalent to ``D''.
    Response: The final rule is revised to incorporate the 
recommendations.

J. Marked for Codes

    Comment: A respondent suggested at paragraphs F-301(b)(7), Prime 
Contractor/Code, F-301(b)(9), Shipped From/Code, and F-301(b)(11), 
Payment Will Be Made By/Code, that these codes must match the contract, 
however, the street address is not required to match the contract. The 
respondents further opined that WAWF does not require the entry of an 
address code in either WAWF 4.2 or 5.0, and concluded that the 
requirement of an address should be clarified.
    Response: No clarification is needed in the rule. Contractors can 
fulfill contracts with shipments from their location or from 
subsidiaries or subcontractors. Therefore, the shipped from code 
doesn't necessarily need to match the contract. Further, the receiving 
report is used for services as well as supplies where there will be no 
ship-from code.
    Comment: One respondent requested clarification at paragraph F-
301(b)(13), Marked For/Code, concerning the ``Marked For Address.'' 
Previously, textual marking information associated with the ``Marked 
For DoDAAC'' was placed in the address lines of the ``Marked For 
DoDAAC.'' Now that DoD is moving away from paper documents, the 
respondent wanted confirmation to

[[Page 58124]]

use the data fields as labeled using the code area for the ``Marked For 
DoDAAC'' and address only, and the ``Mark For Rep'' and ``Mark For 
Secondary'' fields used for the text information.
    Response: The respondent is correct concerning use of these fields. 
No change to the rule is required.

K. Marked for Codes

    Comment: A respondent requested revisions at paragraph F-301(b)(13) 
to reflect that a ``Marked For Code'' cannot be a CAGE code, only a 
DoDAAC or Military Assistance Program Address Codes.
    Response: No revision is required in response to this comment since 
a CAGE code can be entered in the ``Mark For Code'' field.

L. National Stock Number Entry Requirements

    Comment: A respondent recommended at paragraph F-301(b)(15)(1)(A) 
clarifying that in the ``Type'' drop-down field, that the user is to 
select the corresponding type for the data entered, and that if no 
National Stock Number or other valid ``Type'' is available, the word 
``None'' may be entered for the Stock/Part Number, with a corresponding 
``Type'' of any value other than the National Stock Number selected 
from the drop-down box. Another respondent stated that if the contract 
contains NSNs as well as other identification (e.g., part numbers), a 
contractor should place the NSN information in the Stock Part Number 
field and the remaining numbers in the line item description field.
    Response: The paragraph is revised accordingly to incorporate the 
first recommendation. In regards to the second comment concerning NSNs 
as well as other identifying information, the respondent is correct in 
how this process works. The text is revised to ensure this meaning is 
understood.

M. The ``Description'' Field Length and Use

    Comment: A respondent asked whether or not at paragraph F-
301(b)(15)(ii), if exceeding 20 characters in the description field is 
a cause for the rejection of a receiving report. Further, the 
respondent requested clarification on whether or not the description 
refers to what is defined in the payment system as a ``service'' line 
item as opposed to a ``supply'' line item. A WAWF RR for a repair is 
for acceptance of the repair and not of the item repaired. However, 
repair line items are frequently defined as ``supply'' line items and 
therefore the ship-to location is the actual ship-to of the repaired 
item.
    Response: Exceeding 20 characters in the description is not a cause 
for rejection of a receiving report. In response to the second comment, 
the respondent is correct that the description refers to the 
designation in the payment system as a ``service'' line item as opposed 
to a ``supply'' line item.

N. GFP Drop-Down Box

    Comment: A respondent suggested that clarification at paragraph F-
301(b)(15)(iv)(E) is required for how the text relates to the GFE drop-
down box, and whether or not the drop-down box is insufficient for this 
situation. The correct use of GFE drop-down box needs to be fully 
explained. If it is not the same as the entry of ``GFP'' in the 
description text, the differences must be clarified.
    Response: The drop-down GFE box is not related to this section. It 
is obsolete and no longer used and will be deleted in a future version 
of WAWF. The GFP drop-down box is sufficient for use of GFP.

O. F-301--General Comments Regarding Unit Price

    Comment: Two respondents stated that at paragraph F-301(b)(18), the 
proposed text is identical to that used in the current Appendix F for 
unit price (see F-301, block 19, on current Appendix F). They further 
stated that this document will never be used as an invoice; thus, in 
their opinion, there should not be a requirement to fill in a unit 
price, except in the cases listed. Further, one respondent recommended 
at paragraph F-301(b)(18)(i) the addition of the text to clarify the 
handling of unit prices and property transfer. Another respondent had a 
concern with unit prices that were as little as twenty cents and not 
being accepted by the Government agency. This respondent also noted 
that an estimated price can be entered in the description field, but 
the Government contracting office expects the price entered in the 
price field, even though WAWF does not accept the entry the way the 
agency had requested. The respondent went on to state that the DFARS 
does not address the electronic aspect of WAWF and billing.
    Response: The unit price is required. In regard to the intent of 
the paragraph on the WAWF initiated property transfer, the purpose is 
to alert the contractor that a property transfer will be generated as a 
result of the completion of the WAWF RR. In regard to the unit price, 
it is required when the clause at DFARS 252.211-7003, Item 
Identification and Valuation, is used; otherwise the use of the field 
is optional and at the discretion of the vendor. When used for item 
unique identification, the unit price does not necessarily reflect the 
billing price on the contract. The DFARS addresses electronic billing 
at 252.232.7003, Electronic Submission of Payment Requests and 
Receiving Reports. No change in the rule is required in response to 
these comments.

P. F-301--General Comments Regarding Contract Quality Assurance

    Comment: One respondent suggested at paragraph F-301(b)(20)(ii), 
that the term ``execute'' is misleading and will cause confusion. The 
respondent also stated that removing the quotation marks will ensure a 
clear direction. The respondent further suggested at paragraphs F-
301(b)(20)(iv)(A)(3) and (v) the steps described should match the 
actual step taken in WAWF to electronically sign the document and 
recommended the text be revised.
    Response: The quotation marks used for the term ``execute'' are 
removed. In regard to the electronic signatures, the text has been 
revised accordingly to match the actual steps taken in WAWF.

Q. Comment Regarding F-301(b)(21)

    Comment: One respondent suggested paragraph F-301(b)(21) should be 
referenced as the COMMENTS block and/or MISC INFO tab.
    Response: The title is revised to incorporate ``MISC. INFO'' as 
suggested.

R. Printed Documents

    Comment: One respondent recommended at paragraph F-306(b), that the 
text be revised to clarify that if a signed copy is required by the 
contractor, the contractor will print the WAWF RR only after a 
signature is applied by the Government Inspector or Acceptor in WAWF.
    Response: This text is revised accordingly to incorporate the 
suggestion.

S. Part 4--General Comments

    Comment: One respondent stated that in Part 4 there are multiple 
references to section F-301 and recommended, where appropriate, the 
references be updated to the corresponding F-401 reference. The 
respondent also suggested that at paragraph F-401(b)(2), ``Starting 
over with 0001'' cannot be used in an electronic world, and that the DD 
Form 250 needs to conform to the same requirement (F-301(b)(2)) as the 
WAWF RR.
    Response: Part 4 references in the final rule are updated as 
required. In

[[Page 58125]]

regard to shipment numbering, the system will not allow the shipment 
number to start over with 0001 as any duplication of the combined 
contract number, delivery order number, and shipment number results a 
duplication error. In these cases, WAWF requires a change in the 
shipment number prefix. While on a paper DD Form 250, it is possible to 
start over with 0001 when the series is completely used, a change in 
the shipment number prefix should be required for consistency. The text 
at F-401(b)(2) is revised to clarify this process.

T. Part 5 Comments

    Comment: A respondent commented on Part 5 concerning the 
``alternate'' release procedure. The respondent noted that all other 
references in the document are to ``alternative'' release procedure, 
and would like to know which is correct.
    Response: The final rule is revised in Part 5 to refer to 
``alternative'' in lieu of ``alternate.''

U. WAWF Versions

    Comment: A respondent stated there are a number of changes 
incorporated in the latest WAWF release that impact MIRR data entry. 
The respondent noted that changes include removal of ``other'' as an 
acceptance point and replacing it with more specific data entries for 
inspection, acceptance, and ship to DoDAAC codes.
    Response: There is no need to change paragraph F-301(b)(6) as 
``Other'' will remain an option for the inspection and acceptance 
point. DoD adopted business rules regarding the inspection, acceptance, 
and ship-to fields but kept the source, destination, and other 
inspection and acceptance points. Therefore, no change is necessary.

V. General Comments

    Comment: One respondent stated that Appendix F addresses the use of 
the MIRR in WAWF, yet multiple types of receiving and performance 
transactions exist. Examples include:
    [cir] Receiving Report.
    [cir] Receiving Report--COMBO.
    [cir] Invoice 2-in-1 (Services Only).
    Response: Appendix F only provides instruction for use of the MIRR. 
Invoice 2-in-1 (services only) is used to document acceptance of 
services when a MIRR is not required. The COMBO transaction in WAWF 
allows for the vendor to do one set of data entry that is split in the 
system into both a receiving report, identical to the non-COMBO 
receiving report, and an invoice. The instructions for the data entry 
in the COMBO are the same as the data fields for the receiving report.
    Comment: A respondent suggested at paragraph F-301 rewording to 
state that Electronic Document Access (EDA) will automatically populate 
all available and applicable contract data.
    Response: This change is incorporated at F-301(a)(3) in the final 
rule.
    Comment: A respondent stated that they had received multiple 
rejections of receiving reports due to a formatting issue. In one case, 
the receiving report was rejected due to a dash being dropped out of 
the line item stock number upon loading to WAWF. In the respondent's 
opinion, the missing dash should not be a reason for rejection. The 
respondent requested adding specific language to F-301(b)(15) to 
indicate that missing dashes are acceptable in the line item stock 
number.
    Response: The respondent indicates a dash was missing from the part 
number. This changes the item identification significantly. There are 
no known concerns with the National Stock Number functionality.

III. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563

    Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess 
all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if 
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize 
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public 
health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). E.O. 
13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, 
of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. 
This is not a significant regulatory action and, therefore, was not 
subject to review under section 6(b) of E.O. 12866, Regulatory Planning 
and Review, dated September 30, 1993. This rule is not a major rule 
under 5 U.S.C. 804.

IV. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    DoD does not expect this final 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 final 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 the WAWF capability and instructions 
to comply with reporting requirements for IUID and RFID data 
submissions. DoD has prepared a Final 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 an 
electronic format. This final rule affects all DoD contractors who are 
not exempt from using WAWF. Exempt classes of contracts are those that 
are listed under the seven categories of contracts at DFARS 232.7002, 
Policy. Record keeping required is limited to that necessary to 
properly invoice and record shipping and receiving information under 
Government contracts. The 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. Any impact 
on small business is expected to be beneficial by providing detailed 
use, preparation and distribution guidance for electronic submission in 
lieu of preparing and submitting paper invoices and receiving records.

V. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35) applies. The 
Appendix F information collection requirements in this rule are 
approved under Office of Management and Budget Control Number 0704-
0248, DFARS Appendix F, Material Inspection and Receiving Report. 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.

Part 1--Introduction

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), 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 use of the DD Form 250 is on an exception basis (see 
DFARS 232.7003(a)) because use of the WAWF RR is now required by 
most DoD contracts. WAWF provides for electronic preparation and 
documentation of acceptance of supplies and services, and electronic 
invoicing. In addition WAWF allows the printing of a RR that can be 
used as a packing list or when a signed copy is required.

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 nearly all cases.
    (b) The provisions of this appendix also apply to supplies or 
services acquired by DoD when the clause at DFARS 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, prepare a MIRR using the instructions in 
this appendix, unless otherwise specified in the contract.

F-103 Use.

    (a) The WAWF RR and the DD Form 250 are multipurpose reports 
used--
    (1) To provide evidence of Government contract quality assurance 
at origin or destination;
    (2) To provide evidence of acceptance at origin, destination, or 
other;
    (3) For packing lists;
    (4) For receiving;
    (5) For shipping;
    (6) As a contractor invoice (the WAWF RR or DD Form 250 alone 
cannot be used as an invoice, however the option exists to create an 
invoice from the Receiving Report or a Combo (Invoice and Receiving 
Report) both of which minimize data entry); and
    (7) As commercial invoice support.
    (b) Do not use the WAWF RR or the DD Form 250 for shipments--
    (1) By subcontractors, unless the subcontractor is shipping 
directly to the Government; or
    (2) Of contract inventory. The WAWF Property Transfer document 
should be used for this type of shipment. Training for the 
preparation of this document type is available at https://wawftraining.eb.mil, under the Property Transfer and Receipt 
section.
    (c) The contractor prepares the WAWF RR or the DD Form 250, 
except for entries that an authorized Government representative is 
required to complete. When using a paper DD Form 250, the contractor 
shall furnish sufficient copies of the completed form, as directed 
by the Government representative.
    (d) Use the DD Form 250-1:
    (1) For bulk movements of petroleum products by tanker or barge 
to cover--
    (i) Origin or destination acceptance of cargo; or
    (ii) Shipment or receipt of Government owned products.
    (2) To send quality data to the point of acceptance in the case 
of origin inspection on FOB destination deliveries or preinspection 
at product source. Annotate the forms with the words ``INSPECTED FOR 
QUALITY ONLY.''
    (e) In addition to the above uses, the WAWF RR provides 
additional functionality, not provided by the paper DD Form 250 that 
complies with the following requirements:
    (1) Item Unique Identification (IUID), when the clause at DFARS 
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 can 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 
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 (ASN). The RFID information may be added at 
time of submission, or via the WAWF Pack Later functionality after 
acceptance.

F-104 Application.

    (a) WAWF RR and DD Form 250.
    (1) Use the WAWF RR or DD Form 250 for delivery of contract 
line, subline, exhibit line, or exhibit subline items. Do not use 
the WAWF RR or DD Form 250 for those exhibit line or exhibit subline 
items on a DD Form 1423, Contract Data Requirements List, which 
indicate no DD Form 250 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 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 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 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, 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.
    (i) Contiguous United States. 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. 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. Include a 
shipping document (commercial or Government) with each individual 
load showing as a minimum--
    (A) The shipper;
    (B) Shipping point;
    (C) Consignee;
    (D) Contract and line item number;
    (E) Product identification;
    (F) Gross gallons (bulk only);
    (G) Loading temperature (bulk only);
    (H) American Petroleum Institute gravity (bulk only);

[[Page 58127]]

    (I) Identification of carrier's equipment;
    (J) Serial number of all seals applied; and
    (K) Signature of supplier's representative.

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 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 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. 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. 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 and the analytical test report. Include a commercial 
shipping document with each individual truck load showing as a 
minimum--
    (i) The shipper;
    (ii) The name or names;
    (iii) Location and shipping point of the mine or mines from 
which the coal originates;
    (iv) The contract number;
    (v) The exact size of the coal shipped; and
    (vi) A certified weighmaster's certification of weight for the 
truckload.

    Include a waybill with each rail shipment showing the identical 
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 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.
    (b) DD Form 250-1.
    (1) Use a separate form for each tanker or barge cargo loaded.
    (2) The contractor may report more than one barge in the same 
tow on a single form if on the same contract and consigned to the 
same destination.
    (3) When liftings involve more than one contract, prepare 
separate forms to cover the portion of cargo loaded on each 
contract.
    (4) Prepare a separate form for each product or grade of product 
loaded.
    (5) Use a separate document for each tanker or barge cargo and 
each grade of product discharged.
    (6) For discharge, the contractor may report more than one barge 
in the same tow on a single form if from the same loading source.

Part 2--Contract Quality Assurance on Shipments Between Contractors

F-201 Procedures

    Follow the procedures at PGI F-201 for evidence of required 
Government contract quality assurance at a subcontractor's facility.

Part 3--Preparation of the Wide Area Workflow Receiving Report 
(WAWF RR)

F-301 Preparation instructions.

    (a) General.
    (1) Preparation instructions and training for the WAWF RR are 
available at https://wawftraining.eb.mil. The instructions on 
preparing a WAWF RR are part of the Vendor Training section.
    (2) Prime contractors can direct subcontractors to prepare and 
submit documents in WAWF by giving their subcontractors access to 
WAWF via the creation of a Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) 
extension to the prime CAGE.
    (3) If the contract is in Electronic Document Access (EDA) 
(DoD's contract repository), then the WAWF system will automatically 
populate all available and applicable contract data.
    (i) When source acceptance is required, WAWF will populate the 
``Inspect By'' with the ``Admin by'' Department of Defense Activity 
Address Code (DoDAAC). The vendor shall change the DoDAAC if 
Government Source Inspection (GSI) 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 
Defense Automatic Addressing System (DAAS).
    (4) WAWF will populate the address information for CAGE codes, 
DODAACs, and MAPACs from CCR and DAAS. These sites are the DoD 
definitive sources 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 
appendix, 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. This will appear in the 
Comments section of the printed WAWF RR.
    (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 and, when applicable, delivery order number in 
the delivery order field.
    (2) Shipment No.
    (i) The shipment number format requires first three data 
positions to be alpha, fourth position alpha-numeric and last three 
positions numeric, e.g., DFAR001 or DAR0001. Any document used as a 
packing list must include the shipment number information.
    (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 can 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 when the series is completely used. 
WAWF will not allow duplicate shipment numbers to be created against 
a contract or contract and delivery order.
    (ii) Reassign the shipment number of the initial shipment where 
a ``Replacement Shipment'' is involved (see paragraph (b)(16)(iv)(F) 
of this appendix).
    (iii) 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

[[Page 58128]]

    (B) Upon determination that all subcontractors have completed 
their shipments, to correct the DD Form 250 (see F-304) covering the 
final shipment made from the prime contractor's plant by addition of 
a ``Z'' to that shipment number.
    (iv) 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 and/or 
acceptance, enter the estimated date of release. When the date is 
estimated, enter an ``E'' or select an ``E'' from the drop down menu 
in the ``Estimated'' 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 (see F-303). 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.
    (ii) The transportation control number must be a 17 alpha/
numeric digit min/max field, and WAWF provides the capability to 
enter two 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 (O). For purposes of conforming to 
contract, ``O'' is equivalent to ``D''. 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. Enter the prime CAGE code to which 
the contract was awarded.
    (8) Administered by/code. Enter the DoDAAC code of the contract 
administration office cited in the contract.
    (9) Shipped from/code.
    (i) Enter the CAGE or DoDAAC code of the ``Shipped From'' 
location. If it is the same as the 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. As mentioned in (i) 
above, if identical to 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 DoDAAC code of the 
payment office 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. Only valid DoDAACs, MAPACs, or CAGE codes can 
be entered. Vendors 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 4 or 6 character line item number under the Uniform Contract 
Line Item Numbering System (see 204.71). Line item numbers with 6 
characters 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. The data entered in the NSN field must reflect 
the NSN of the material item being shipped and should be a valid 
NSN, 13 positions in length. In the ``Type'' drop-down field, select 
the corresponding type for the data entered. If no National Stock 
Number (NSN) or other valid ``Type'' is available, the word ``NONE'' 
may be entered for the Stock/Part Number, with a corresponding 
``Type'' of any value other than NSN selected from the drop-down 
box.
    (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) must be placed on the MILSTRIP Tab, not in the line item 
description field. Enter the MILSTRIP data for each CLIN when 
MILSTRIP data is identified in the contract.
    (ii) For service line items, select SV for ``SERVICE'' in the 
type field followed by as short a description as is possible 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 
(entries may be extended through Block 20).
    (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 
number, e.g., ``AERNO 60-6354.''
    (G) For items shipped with missing components, enter and 
complete the following:

``Item(s) shipped short of the following component(s): NSN or 
comparable identification --------, Quantity --------, Estimated 
Value --------, Authority --------''
     (H) When shipment is made of components which were short on a 
prior shipment, enter and complete the following:
    ``These components were listed as shortages on shipment number 
--------, date shipped --------''
    (I) When shipments involve drums, cylinders, reels, containers, 
skids, etc., designated as returnable under contract provisions, 
enter and complete the following:
    ``Return to --------, Quantity --------, Item --------, 
Ownership (Government/contractor).''
     (J) Enter the total number of shipping containers, the type of 
containers, and the container number(s) assigned for the shipment.
    (K) On foreign military sales (FMS) shipments, enter the special

gross weight.
    (L) When test/evaluation results are a condition of acceptance 
and are not available prior to shipment, the following note shall be 
entered if the shipment is approved by the contracting officer:
    ``Note: Acceptance and payment are contingent upon receipt of 
approved test/evaluation results.''
    The contracting officer will advise--
    (1) The consignee of the results (approval/disapproval); and
    (2) The contractor to withhold invoicing pending attachment of 
the approved test/evaluation results.
    (M) For clothing and textile contracts containing a bailment 
clause, enter the words ``GFP UNIT VALUE.''
    (N) When the initial unit incorporating an approved value 
engineering change proposal (VECP) is shipped, enter the following 
statement:

This is the initial unit delivered which incorporates VECP No. ----
----, Contract Modification No. --------, dated --------
     (16) Quantity shipped/received.
    (i) Enter the quantity shipped, using the unit of measure in the 
contract for payment. When a second unit of measure is used for

[[Page 58129]]

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 listed in MIL-
STD-129, Marking for Shipping and Storage and 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 DFARS 252.211-7003, Item 
Identification and Valuation). When delivering GFP via WAWF to 
another contractor, WAWF will initiate a property transfer if the 
vendor who is initiating the WAWF RR is also registered as a vendor 
property shipper in WAWF and the vendor receiving the property is 
also a vendor 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 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, contractors 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 provides for release of shipment; 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, contractors will 
execute Certificates 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; and
    (2) Sign and date.
    WAWF will enter the typed, stamped, or printed name, title, 
email 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 (A).
    (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); and
    (B) Sign and date.
    WAWF will enter the typed, stamped, or printed name, title, 
email address, and commercial telephone number.
    (21) Contractor use only. MISC. INFO. Self explanatory.

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.

F-304 Correction instructions.

    Functionality for correcting a WAWF RR is being developed. 
Preparation instructions and training for corrections will be 
available at https://wawftraining.eb.mil once the functionality is 
deployed. The instructions will be part of the vendor training.

F-305 Invoice instructions.

    Contractors shall submit payment requests and receiving reports 
in electronic form, unless an exception in DFARS 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 DFARS 252.232-7003) 
fulfills the requirement for a DD Form 250 MIRR. Contractors should 
ensure the packaging documentation includes a Government signed 
receiving report when the contract requires origin inspection and 
acceptance. Contractors must include a signed document indicating 
material receipt and acceptance has occurred in the container with 
the exception of material shipments that are approved for 
Alternative Release Procedures (ARP).

[[Page 58130]]

F-306 Packing list instructions.

    Contractors may also use a WAWF processed RR as a packing list. 
WAWF provides options to print the RR. These printed RRs may also be 
used if a signed copy is required.
    (a) WAWF provides a print capability for its RR. The WAWF 
printed 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 can be used as a packing list. If needed, the signature 
can be verified by reviewing the signed RR in WAWF.
    (b) Contractors can also print a RR from their systems (not 
WAWF). If such a signed copy is required by the contractor, the 
contractor will print the WAWF RR only after a signature is applied 
by the Government Inspector or Acceptor in WAWF. Copies printed will 
be annotated with ``\\original signed in WAWF\\'' in lieu of the 
inspector/acceptor's signature.

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.

receiving information required by this appendix by using the WAWF 
electronic form (see paragraph (b) of the clause at DFARS 252.232-
7003) fulfills the requirement for an MIRR.
    (b) If the contracting officer authorizes the contractor to 
submit an invoice in paper form, the Government encourages, but does 
not require, the contractor to use the MIRR as an invoice, in lieu 
of a commercial form. If commercial forms are used, identify the 
related MIRR shipment number(s) on the form. If using the MIRR as an 
invoice, prepare the MIRR and forward the required number of copies 
to the payment office as follows:
    (1) Complete Blocks 5, 6, 19, and 20. Block 6 shall contain the 
invoice number and date. Column 20 shall be totaled.
    (2) Mark in letters approximately one inch high, first copy: 
``ORIGINAL INVOICE,'' for all invoice submissions; and three copies: 
``INVOICE COPY,'' when the payment office requires four copies. 
Questions regarding the appropriate number of copies (i.e., one or 
four) should be directed to the applicable payment office.
    (3) Forward the appropriate number of copies to the payment 
office (Block 12 address), except when acceptance is at destination 
and a Navy finance office will make payment, forward to destination.
    (4) Separate the copies of the MIRR used as an invoice from the 
copies of the MIRR used as a receiving report.

F-407 Packing list instructions.

    Contractors may use copies of the MIRR as a packing list. The 
packing list copies are in addition to the copies of the MIRR 
required for standard distribution (see F-501). Mark them ``PACKING 
LIST.''

F-408 Receiving instructions.

    When the MIRR is used for receiving purposes, local directives 
shall prescribe procedures. If CQA and acceptance or acceptance of 
supplies is required upon arrival at destination, see F-
401(b)(21)(v) for instructions.
