PART 315_CONTRACTING BY NEGOTIATION--Table of Contents

 

   Subpart 315.2_Solicitation and Receipt of Proposals and Information

 

Sec. 315.208  Submission, modification, revision, and withdrawal of proposals.



    (b) When the head of the contracting activity (HCA) for a health 

agency determines that certain classes of biomedical or behavioral 

research and development acquisitions should be subject to conditions 

other than those specified in FAR 52.215-1(c)(3), the HCA may authorize 

the use of the provision at 352.215-70 in addition to the provision at 

FAR 52.215-1. This is an authorized deviation.

    (2) When the provision at 352.215-70 is included in the solicitation 

and a proposal is received after the exact time specified for receipt, 

the contracting officer, with the assistance of cost and technical 

personnel, shall make a written determination as to whether the proposal 

meets the requirements of the provision at 352.215-70 and, therefore, 

can be considered.
