(a) GSPR Chapter 5B implements and supplements the FPR and GSPR Chapter 5. Implementing material is that which expands upon related FPR and Chapter 5 material. Supplementing material is that for which there is no counterpart in the FPR or Chapter 5. (b) Material published in the FPR or Chapter 5 becomes effective throughout PBS upon the effective date of the particular FPR or Chapter 5 material. Such material will not be repeated, paraphrased, or restated in Chapter 5B. Therefore, all three must be reviewed to obtain comprehensive coverage of PBSwide procurement operating policies and procedures. (c) Material in Chapter 5B implements and supplements but does not supersede the FPR or Chapter 5 unless a deviation has been authorized and the deviation is explicitly referenced. In cases of other conflict, or when Chapter 5B contains no related material implementing the FPR or Chapter 5, the FPR or Chapter 5 will govern. § 5B-1.103 Applicability. Chapter 5B applies to all purchases and contracts made by PBS for the procurement of personal property and nonpersonal services (including struction). § 5B-1.104 Method of issuance. con (a) All Chapter 5B material deemed necessary for business concerns, and others interested, to understand PBS procurement operating policies and procedures will be published in the FEDERAL REGISTER. Other related material also may be published in the FEDERAL REGISTER When its inclusion will provide a logical, comprehensive statement of PBS procurement operating policies and procedures. (b) Chapter 5B material published in the FEDERAL REGISTER Will be published in cumulative form in Chapter 5B of Title 41 of the Code of Federal Regulations (41 CFR Ch. 5B). The FEDERAL REGISTER and Title 41 of the Code of Federal Reg ulations may be purchased from the Superintendent of Documents, Government Printing Office, Washington 25, D.C. § 5B-1.105 Exclusions. (a) Certain PBS procurement policies and procedures which come within the scope of this chapter nevertheless may be excluded therefrom when there is justification. These exclusions include the following categories: (1) Subject matter which bears a security classification. (2) Policy or procedures which are expected to be effective for a period of less than six months. (3) Policies or procedures which are effective on an experimental basis for a reasonable period. (4) Policies or procedures pertaining to other functions of PBS as well as to procurement functions and there is need to make the issuance available simultaneously to all PBS employees concerned. (5) Where speed of issuance is essential, numerous changes are required, and all necessary changes cannot be made promptly. (b) Procurement policies and procedures issued in other than the FPR System format under paragraphs (a) (4) and (a) (5), above, will be codified into Chapter 5B at the earliest practicable date, but in any event not later than six months from date of issuance. (a) Generally, the numbering system used in Chapter 5B conforms to that of the FPR (see § 1-1.007-2). Thus, a particular procurement policy or procedure is identified by the same number in the FPR, Chapter 5, and Chapter 5B, except that the first digit of the number is either 1, 5, or 5B. (b) Where Chapter 5B implements a part, subpart, section, or subsection of the FPR or Chapter 5, the implementing part, subpart, section, or subsection of Chapter 5B will be numbered (and captioned) to correspond to the FPR or the Chapter 5 part, subpart, section, or subsection. |
