Acceptance is at the destination by the government, contingent upon conformity to contract specifications, with no explicit technical standards referenced beyond general compliance with FAR and DFARS.

The order includes no options or extensions, and while special requirements such as security clearances, OCI provisions, or MIL-STD standards are not listed, the contract incorporates all applicable terms from the underlying basic contract and requires DPAS-rated order compliance.
