You need to elaborate. I don't know what you mean and probably others don't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy_Contracting_4 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I have been arguing with folks I work with over putting something that requires First Article Testing on a Government Purchase Card.Thoughts? Doesn't First Article Testing require some kind of written terms and conditions, and aren't written terms and conditions prohibited for purchases with a Government Purchase Card? What are you buying that is under the micropurchase threshold that needs First Article Testing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Procurement Weanie Posted February 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 No I am talking about a manufactured part that requires First Article Testing (FAT) and Approval. I have some folks in our Supply Chain that have purchase manufactured parts that require FAT and approval on their Government Purchase Card (GPC). In my interpretation of FAR Subpart 9.3, FAT approval must be given by a Contracting Officer not a person that is designated as a GPC holder.
