Section 5417.7404-1: Authorization.

The authority in DFARS 217.7404-1(b) to authorize use of a UCA for a non-urgent requirement, exists only where the non-urgently needed quantity should be included and priced coincident to definitization of an urgently required quantity of the item. Authorization to take this action or the actions cited in DFARS 217.7404-1(a) or (c) is delegated, without authority for further delegation, to:

(a) The chief of the contracting office at the DSCs for a UCA to fill a requisition for a backordered or non-stocked quantity requiring heightened management, i.e.:

(i) a Military Service requisition with Issue Priority Designator (IPD) 01;

(ii) a Military Service requisition with IPD 02 or 03; and either an Anticipated Not Mission Capable Supply (ANMCS) or Not Mission Capable Supply (NMCS) indicator in the required Delivery Date field (record positions 62-64) beginning with a "9", "N", or "E" or an OSD/JCS project code (record position 57-59) beginning with a "9".

(iii) a Foreign Military Sale requisition under the Cooperative Logistics Program Support Agreement (CLSSA) with IPD 02 or 03 and an OSD/JCS project code beginning with a "9".

For such high priority UCAs where the not-to-exceed ceiling price does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold, this authorization is delegable, but not lower than one level above the contracting officer.

(b) The Administrator/Deputy Administrators, Defense National Stockpile Center and Director, Defense Automated Printing and Support Center;

(c) The Commanders/Deputy Commanders of other activities.

The written approval shall document the specific urgency which compels use of a UCA, demonstrate that the restrictions of DFARS 217.7403 are met, and identify the consequences of failure to take such action.
