Approval of an ECP will be achieved by: (a) thesignatuxa on the ECP form of an authorized representativeof theGovennrent procurirq activity, or of a review activi~ delegated suchauthority, and by the return of an approved copy to the contractor; or by(b) contractual authorizationwhen the ECP affects the contract (see 4.1).

5.1.6.2 Disapproval. When an ECP is disapproved, the FCO will notifythe mntractor of such disapproval in writing within 30 mlendar days ofthe disapproval date giving the reason(s) for disapproval.

5.2 Eeviation specifics.

The follcwing factors aresignifimnt in evaluating the effects of a dwiation: (a) health; (b)safety; (c) performance; (d) interchmgeability; reliability,survivability,maintainability, or durability of the item or its re~irx: (e) effSCtiVe use or operation; (f) weight; (g) dimnsions; (h)appamme (when a factor); or (i) wst to the Government.

5.2.2 Restrictions on deviations. Unless unusual circumstancesexist, requests for deviations affecting safety shall not be submittsd.$equests for deviations which would affect service operation ormi.ntmance should not be submitted or authorized as deviations. Such~= that will affeet specifications,drawings or technical manualsehallbe pmpc6edandpmcessed aslxxs.

5.2.3 Eeviation review and approval. Unless otherwise specified inthe contract, minor deviations which do not affeet any factor listed in5.2.1 shall be apprcwd (or disapprove) for the Govermen tbythe CkD.IKviations affecting one or more of the factors listed in 5.2.1 can bsauthoriz< only by the FW or their authorized represenfor deviations shall bs processed

5.2.4 Recurr”w dwiatiom. Requests for recurring deviations shallbe carefully scrutinized by the procuring activity. If a propcseddeviation is ~% (a repetition or extension of a previousdeviation), it is probable that either the requirements of the technimldocumentation are t-m stringent or the mrrective action of themanufacturer was ineffsctive. In the casa of the former, an ECP shculd beprocessd tochangethed ocumntation.

5.3 Waiver scecifics.

5.3.2 Restrictions on waivers. Unless unusual circn.ms~ exist,~ for miVerS affedx safety shzdl not be authorized. ECFS shallbe used for such deficiencies.

5.3.3 waiver review and amxmval. Unlese othsrwise .spcified by theprocuring activi~, waivers whiti involve only defects classif id as%.imcnY and which do not affect w of the factors listed in 5.2.1 shallb reviewed ti dispostiond by the lccal WRB subject to approval ordisapproval by the ccgnizant CM. Unless otherwiee specified by theprocuring activity, waivere which have an ef feet on any of the factorslisted in 5.2.1 shall be reviewed by the CAO, as appropriate, andforwarrkl to the R?i3 with mcmmmdatione. Waivers of critical or majordefects or waivers which af fed one or more of the factors listed in 5.2.1can be granted only by the P@3 or an authorized representative. Requestsfor waivers shall be proce5sA within 30 calerdar days of receipt by theGQvelmnmt .

5.3.4 Recurrim waivers. Requests for recurring waivers shall becarefully scrutinize by the procuring activity. If a propesed waiver isrecurring (a re~tition or extension of a previous waiver), it is pro12ablethat eithex the requiremnts of the technical drxxmm tation are toostringent or the corrective action of the manufacturer was ineffective.
