This part is also applicable to those items for which the rotational/storage stock concept is used to maintain a sufficient quantity of items with short shelf life needed for wartime requirements. Rotational stocks should be considered government property (GP) and the appropriate GP clauses prescribed in this part should be incorporated to ensure that the stocks are properly maintained and accounted for by the contractor. Specific or unique requirements over and above those contained the GP clauses, such as a provision for acceptable replenishment rates, should be spelled out in the statement of work for the contract.
