Allocation Chart (MAC) determines the times. Additionally, the cost of replacement parts
obtained through the Government's supply channels will be determined by the amount
identified in the contractor's current commercial dealer net price or Army Master Data File
(AMDF) price, whichever is less. Furthermore, the owning unit may direct the contractor to
provide the replacement parts that prove to be defective within the warranty period, without
costs to the government, directly to their location or F.O.B., U.S. Port of Embarkation for
OCONUS. The contractor shall furnish replacement parts within 10 working days after
receipt of written claim notification. DO NOT submit warranty claims for reimbursement
where repair labor costs and replacement parts costs combined do not exceed $150.00 for
any one failure.
Identification Of Failed Items. Failed warranty items shall be tagged/identified to prevent
improper repair or use. Documents that describe the use of DA Form 2402 Maintenance

Items requiring special handling, storage, or shipment during the processing of claims shall

receipt, supplies may be disposed.
Invalid Warranty Claims. When supplies are inspected by the contractor and found to be
non-warrantable due to abuse or improper maintenance, or the supplies are found to be
serviceable, the repair activity submitting the claim will be required to make reimbursement
for contractor services. All failed items returned for warranty claim action will be monitored
by the WARCO. Additionally, regarding contractor repair, the local WARCO must stipulate
at the time of request for services that either no non-warranty work be done or be prepared
to pay for such work.
