    I would like to know once the assigned Biomedical Engineer initiates Clauses to a Contract who has the authority to make changes and remove such clauses after they were negotiated with the vendor.

    Are you talking about a federal contract under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)?

    what does "initiates Clauses to a Contract" mean? Does this process include all or only some of the clauses included in the contract? Can you provide some examples of clauses "initiated" by the engineer? Is the subject matter of those clauses technical engineering world clauses? If you do not work for the U.S. government, what, if anything,  does your employer's processes and procedures state about who is authorized to negotiate contracts and issue changes? Does it make sense that you and the engineer should collaborate with respect to change or removal of such clauses?

    I received this from the OP yesterday.  It was sent to a Wifcon e-mail account and provides a little more information.
