    Original post

    Good morning.  Our contract writing system (SPS) does not sort provisions to the bottom of the document (after documents, exhibits and attachments- as indicated at 12.303(d)) and I've been browsing FBO since yesterday and have yet to find a contract organized as specified in 12.303.  So I'm just curious, but does "anyone" actually follow the format in FAR 12.303 when preparing the SF 1449?

    It does say "to the maximum extent practicable." Your contract writing system has inherent limitations that, perhaps arguably, make it impracticable to precisely follow the format.

    At this point, consider yourself fortunate to have a contract writing system that can: 1) integrate provisions and clauses, 2) integrate a SOO/SOW/PWS, 3) generate a conform copy of the contract, 4) handle attachments/exhibits.

    Mine can't do any of that. I never thought I'd long for PD2.

    Word!  Been saying that since I left DoD over 12 years ago.  :)
