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.
