most recent 12 months.
The clause at DFARS 252.217–7012 is
used in master agreements for repair
and alteration of vessels. Contracting
officers use the information required by
paragraph (d) of the clause to determine

prudent business practice, because it
limits the Government’s liability as a
related party to the work the contractor
performs. Contracting officers use the

and (g) of the clause to keep informed
of lost or damaged property for which
the Government is liable, and to
