Government property shall not be provided to contractors unless all other alternatives are not feasible. The decision to provide Government property to contractors (whether Government-furnished or contractor-acquired) shall be made only after careful consideration of all relevant factors. Among these factors are the following:
(a) Providing Government property to contractors increases the Government's administrative burden and requires recordkeeping and personnel.
(b) Providing property may dilute the contractor's overall responsibility and weaken guarantees, end-item delivery requirements, and other contract terms.
(c) Providing property may make NASA responsible for delays in that the Agency assumes responsibility for scheduling delivery of the property.
