nonconforming supplies, or if the material is not
received within 60 days after the delivery date specified
on the purchase order.
The supplier who receives a fast payment order
ships the material to the designated address and at the
same time sends an invoice to the paying activity. The
supplier certifies on his invoice that he has complied
with the terms of the purchase order, and agrees to
replace, repair, or correct supplies not received at
destination, damaged in transit, or not conforming to
purchase requirements.
The procedure is designed to eliminate the time and
expense required for inspection and acceptance of small
purchases before delivery to ships, overseas activities,
or other distant points, and to permit payment to the
supplier when the material is shipped.
