                      Subpart 46.3_Contract Clauses

 

46.308  Cost-reimbursement research and development contracts.



    The contracting officer shall insert the clause at 52.246-8, 

Inspection of Research and Development--Cost-Reimbursement, in 

solicitations and contracts for research and development when (a) the 

primary objective of the contract is the delivery of end items other 

than designs, drawings, or reports, and (b) a cost-reimbursement 

contract is contemplated; unless use of the clause is impractical and 

the clause prescribed in 46.309 is considered to be more appropriate. If 

it is contemplated that the contract will be on a no-fee basis, the 

contracting officer shall use the clause with its Alternate I.
