§ 852.210-71 - Guarantee clause.

(a) When the bid or proposal will result in any purchase of equipment, the following clause will be used:

(b) Where it is industry policy to furnish, but not install, replacement material and parts at the contractor's expense, the last sentence will be changed to indicate that cost of installation shall be borne by the Government. Where it is industry policy to: (1) Guarantee components for the life of the equipment (i.e., crystals in transmitters and receivers in radio communications systems); or (2) require that highly technical equipment be returned to the factory (at contractor's or Government's expense) for replacement of defective materials or parts, the clause used will be compatible with such policy.
