Instructions For GFP Attachments

Instructions For GFP Attachments

December 2013

The two attachments for GFP serve multiple purposes in the contract. They document the agreement between the Government and the contractor on what property the Government will furnish to the contractor for the performance of the contract, they identify what property the contractor is authorized to requisition from the supply system and whether the Government or contractor pays for that requisitioned property, they establish which items of property are serially managed for the clause 252.211-7007 and they identify which items are subject to the requirements of DFARS clause 252.2457001.

As identified in PGI 245.103-72 the two GFP attachment formats are:

The Requisitioned Government-furnished property. This format is a listing of Government Property to be authorized for contractor requisition from DoD supply sources in accordance with the clause at FAR 52.251-1. The fillable PDF format for this attachment is available at PGI 245.103-72 (b).

The Scheduled Government-furnished property. This format is a listing of the Government property to be provided, including when major end items are being provided under a modification or upgrade contract; or when reparables are being provided under a repair, modification, or overhaul contract. The fillable PDF format for this attachment is available at DFARS PGI 245.103-72(c).

When using either attachment enter a numerical sequence number for the attachment in accordance with PGI204.7105(b)(5).

Scheduled Government Furnished Property

The Scheduled Government Furnished Property format has three distinct parts

The first section identifies the Attachment Number and the Contract Number. Identify the Attachment Number when the form is used in solicitations, contract awards, and contract modifications. When used as an attachment to a solicitation,leave the "Contract Number" section blank. When the Scheduled GFP Attachment is included during contract award or modification, include component parts of the contract number for DoD FAR type contracts. For Non-DoD or non-standard contract numbers, enter the complete contract number in the "Non-DoD Contract" field. Enter only one contract number format.

The other two sections, Serialized Items List and Non-Serialized Items List, are very similar and have significant overlap in their data fields. The difference is that the Serialized Items List is used to list

serially-managed items (See DFARS 252.245-7001(a)) and the Non-Serialized Items List is for items that are not serially-managed.

There are data fields that are required for both lists. These are Item Number, Description, Nomenclature, Quantity, Unit of Measure and Use As is. The definition and source of the definition for all data fields can be found in Table 1, Data Elements for Government Furnished Property (GFP) Identification . The Unit Acquisition Cost is a data element required to be identified by the Government in the contract per FAR 52.245-1. However, it may not be available at the time of contract award. If the Unit Acquisition Cost is not available, the field can be left blank, but the attachment should be modified to add the Unit Acquisition Cost once it becomes available.

Both lists also have a number of optional fields to further specify and identify the items of property. These are, Manufacturer CAGE, Model Number, National Stock Number, Part Number, Part or Identifying Number, and Type Designation. Any combination of these data elements may be used for a given item of property.

There is one additional data field on both lists within the Scheduled Government Furnished Property format. That is Marking Instructions. Marking Instructions is a mandatory field for all items on the Serialized Items List. A value of YES in the field identifies that the item must be tagged, labeled or marked in accordance with the clause 252.245-7001. A value of NO means the items do not require tagging, labeling or marking. If an item has the value YES, the Government should provide marking instructions in the contract. The Non-Serialized Items List also includes this data field, but it is not used at this time and should be left blank.

Finally, there are two additional optional data fields that appear only on the Serialized Items List. These are Serial Number and Unique Item Number. All serially managed items should have a serial number, but those serial numbers may not be known at the time of contract award. For example, the number of items to be repaired on a contract may be known, but the exact items that will be sent for repair may not have been determined. Or GFP engines may be identified as being provided to incorporate into the deliverable end item, an aircraft, but the serial numbers and UIIs of the engines are not known at contract award because they have not been manufactured yet. In these situations, identify the quantity of the item and leave the Serial Number and Unique Item Number fields blank. If the serial number is known, but the UII is not, enter an Item Number line for each item including its Serial Number, and leave the Unique Item Number field blank.

Requisitioned Government Furnished Property

The Requisitioned Government Furnished Property Format also consists of three distinct parts.

Like the Scheduled Government Furnished Property format, the first section identifies the attachment number and contract number when used as an attachment to a solicitation or award in accordance with PGI 204.7105(b)(5). Identify the Attachment Number when the form is used in solicitations, contract awards, and contract modifications. When used as an attachment to a solicitation, leave the "Contract Number" section blank. When the Scheduled GFP Attachment is included during contract award or modification, include component parts of the contract number for DoD FAR type contracts. For Non-DoD or non-standard contract numbers, enter the complete contract number in the "Non-DoD Contract" field. Enter only one contract number format.

The other two parts of the Requisitioned Government Furnished Property format are the Reimbursable List and the Non-Reimbursable List. The Reimbursable List is a list of parts that the contractor can requisition from the supply system that they must pay for. Requisitioned parts paid for by the contractor are not GFP. On cost reimbursable contracts they are Contractor Acquired Property (CAP). On Fixed-Price Contracts those parts become Contractor Furnished Material (CFM).

The Non-Reimbursable List is a list of parts the contractor can requisition that the contractor does not have to pay for. These items become GFP when received by the contractor.

There is significant overlap in the data elements for the two lists. Item Number, Description, Nomenclature, Quantity, Unit of Measure and Use As Is are required field for both lists. For items on either list, quantity refers to the maximum number of that particular item the contractor is authorized to requisition. To increase the quantity authorized, the list must be amended through a contract modification.

Part or Identifying Number and National Stock Number are optional fields for both lists; however, one or the other of those numbers must be included for each line in the Requisitioned GFP Attachment.

For the Non-Reimbursable List Unit Acquisition Value is also a required field. This represents the unit cost to the Government of the item.

On the Non-Reimbursable List Manufacturer's CAGE and Type Designation are also optional fields that can be used to more specifically identify items. For the Reimbursable List the optional data field Dollar Limit Authorized is available if a dollar limit as well as a quantity needs to be identified.

Finally, both lists contain the field Marking Instructions. This field will always be blank for reimbursable items. For non-reimbursable items the field may be used, with a value of YES in the field meaning that the item must be tagged, labeled or marked in accordance with the clause 252.245-7001 and that marking instructions must be included in the contract.
