DFARS 252.247-7017 [Reserved]/[Removed] Basic (Jun 2019) (Archived)

This clause was removed pursuant to the Repeal of Transportation Related DFARS Provisions and Clauses (DFARS Case 2019-D020)
DoD is issuing a final rule amending the DFARS to remove eight transportation-related provisions and clauses, as well as a clause reference. These provisions and clauses were prescribed for solicitations and contracts for services to prepare personal property for movement or storage, or perform intra-city of intra-area movement of personal property. The information contained in these provisions and clauses is specific to the performance requirement and/or within the contracting officer’s discretion and therefore not necessary. Repeal of these DFARS provisions and clauses implements a recommendation from the DoD Regulatory Reform Task Force established pursuant to E.O. 13777.

Original prescription:
As prescribed in 247.271-3(k), when acquiring services for the preparation of personal property for movement or storage, or for performance of intra-city or intra-area movement, use the following provisions, clauses, and schedules. Revise solicitation provisions and schedules, as appropriate, if using negotiation rather than sealed bidding. Overseas commands, except those in Alaska and Hawaii, may modify these clauses to conform to local practices, laws, and regulations. (k) The clause at 252.247-7017, Erroneous Shipments.
