(a) Definitions. As used in this clause-
(1) "Material management and accounting system" means the Contractor's system or systems for planning, controlling, and accounting for the acquisition, use, issuing, and disposition of material. Material management and accounting systems may be manual or automated. They may be stand-alone systems or they may be integrated with planning, engineering, estimating, purchasing, inventory, accounting, or other systems.
(2) "Valid time-phased requirements" means material which is-
(i) Needed to fulfill the production plan, including reasonable quantities for scrap, shrinkage, yield, etc.; and
(ii) Charged/billed to contracts or other cost objectives in a manner consistent with the need to fulfill the production plan.
(3) "Contractor" means a business unit as defined in section 31.001 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation.
(b) General. The Contractor agrees to-
(1) Maintain a material management and accounting system (MMAS) that-
(i) Reasonably forecasts material requirements;
(ii) Ensures that costs of purchased and fabricated material charged or allocated to a contract are based on valid time-phased requirements; and
(iii) Maintains a consistent, equitable, and unbiased logic for costing of material transactions.
(2) Assess its MMAS and take reasonable action to comply with the MMAS standards in paragraph (f) of this clause.
(c) Applicability. Paragraphs (d) and (e) of this clause apply only if the Contractor-
(1) Is a large business; and
(2) Received, in its fiscal year preceding award of this contract, Department of Defense prime contracts or subcontracts, and their modifications totaling-
(i) $70 million or more; or
(ii) $30 million or more (but less than $70 million), and is notified in writing by the Contracting Officer that paragraphs (d) and (e) apply.
(d) Disclosure, demonstration, and maintenance requirements.
(1) The Contractor shall-
(i) Disclose its MMAS to the Administrative Contracting Officer in writing; and
(ii) If requested by the Administrative Contracting Officer, demonstrate that the MMAS conforms to the standards in paragraph (f) of this clause.
(2) An MMAS disclosure is adequate when the Contractor has provided the Administrative Contracting Officer with documentation which-
(i) Accurately describes those policies, procedures, and practices that the Contractor currently uses in its MMAS; and
(ii) Provides sufficient detail for the Government to reasonably make an informed judgment regarding the adequacy of the MMAS.
(3) An MMAS demonstration is adequate when the Contractor has provided the Administrative Contracting Officer-
(i) Sufficient evidence to demonstrate the degree of compliance of its MMAS with the standards at paragraph (f) of this clause; and
(ii) Identification of any significant deficiencies, the estimated cost impact of the deficiency, and a comprehensive corrective action plan.
(4) The Contractor shall disclose significant changes in its MMAS to the Administrative Contracting Officer within 30 days of implementation.
(5) If the contractor desires the Government to protect such information as privileged or confidential, the Contractor shall-
(i) Notify the Government representative to whom the information is submitted, i.e., the ACO, or the auditor; and
(ii) Ensure an appropriate legend is on the face of the document(s) at the time of submission.
(e) Deficiencies.
(1) If the Contractor receives a report which identifies deficiencies in its MMAS, the Contractor agrees to respond as follows-
(i) If the Contractor agrees with the report findings and recommendations, the Contractor shall-
(A) Within 30 days, state its agreement in writing; and
(B) Within 60 days, correct the deficiencies or submit a corrective action plan.
(ii) If the Contractor disagrees with the report findings and recommendations, the Contractor shall, within 30 days, state its rationale for each area of disagreement.
(2) The Administrative Contracting Officer shall evaluate the Contractor's response and notify the Contractor of the-
(i) Determination concerning remaining deficiencies;
(ii) Adequacy of any proposed or completed corrective action plan; and
(iii) Need for any new or revised corrective action plan.
(f) MMAS standards. MMAS systems shall have adequate internal accounting and administrative controls to ensure system and data integrity, and comply with the following:
(1) Have an adequate system description including policies, procedures, and operating instructions which comply with the Federal Acquisition Regulation and Defense FAR Supplement;
(2) Ensure that costs of purchased and fabricated material charged or allocated to a contract are based on valid time-phased requirements as impacted by minimum/economic order quantity restrictions-
(i) A 98 percent bill of material accuracy and a 95 percent master production schedule accuracy are desirable as a goal in order to ensure that requirements are both valid and appropriately time-phased.
(ii) If systems have accuracy levels below these, the Contractor shall demonstrate that-
(A) There is no material harm to the Government due to lower accuracy levels; and
(B) The cost to meet the accuracy goals is excessive in relation to the impact on the Government;
(3) Provide a mechanism to identify, report, and resolve system control weaknesses and manual override. Systems should identify operational exceptions such as excess/residual inventory as soon as known;
(4) Provide audit trails and maintain records (manual and those in machine readable form) necessary to evaluate system logic and to verify through transaction testing that the system is operating as desired;
(5) Establish and maintain adequate levels of record accuracy, and include reconciliation of recorded inventory quantities to physical inventory by part number on a periodic basis. A 95 percent accuracy level is desirable. If systems have an accuracy level below 95 percent, the Contractor shall demonstrate that-
(i) There is no material harm to the Government due to lower accuracy levels; and
(ii) The cost to meet the accuracy goal is excessive in relation to the impact on the Government;
(6) Provide detailed descriptions of circumstances which will result in manual or system generated transfers of parts;

(ii) The costing methodology may be standard or actual cost, or any of the inventory costing methods in 48 CFR 9904.411-50(b). Consistency shall be maintained across all contract and customer types, and from accounting period to accounting period for initial charging and transfer charging.
(iii) The system should transfer parts and associated costs within the same billing period. In the few instances where this may not be appropriate, the Contractor may accomplish the material transaction using a loan/pay-back technique. The "loan/
pay-back technique" means that the physical part is moved temporarily from the contract, but the cost of the part remains on the contract. The procedures for the loan/pay-back technique must be approved by the Administrative Contracting Officer. When the technique is used, the Contractor shall have controls to ensure-
(A) Parts are paid back expeditiously;
(B) Procedures and controls are in place to correct any overbilling that might occur;
(C) Monthly, at a minimum, identification of the borrowing contract and the date the part was borrowed; and
(D) The cost of the replacement part is charged to the borrowing contract;
(8) Where allocations from common inventory accounts are used, have controls (in addition to those in paragraphs (b)(2) and (7) of this clause) to ensure that-
(i) Reallocations and any credit due are processed no less frequently than the routine billing cycle;
(ii) Inventories retained for requirements which are not under contract are not allocated to contracts; and
(iii) Algorithms are maintained based on valid and current data;
(9) Notwithstanding FAR 45.505-3(f)(1)(ii), have adequate controls to ensure that physically commingled inventories that may include material for which costs are charged or allocated to fixed-price, cost-reimbursement, and commercial contracts do not compromise requirements of any of the standards in paragraphs (f)(1) through (8) of this clause. Government furnished material shall not be-
(i) Physically commingled with other material; or
(ii) Used on commercial work; and
(10) Be subjected to periodic internal audits to ensure compliance with established policies and procedures.
