        Subpart 51.1_Contractor Use of Government Supply Sources
 
Sec.  51.105  Payment for shipments.

    GSA, DOD, and VA will not forward bills to contractors for supplies 
ordered from Government stock until after the supplies have been 
shipped. Receipt of billing is sufficient evidence to establish 
contractor liability and to provide a basis for payment. Contracting 
officers should direct their contractors to make payment promptly upon 
receipt of billings.
