I was reading a previous thread and still had questions regarding the use of a CAGE code on a Drawing BOM. If we are building a BOM for a drawing and fine a CAGE code for a vendor and add it to the BOM and then when we go to order the parts (minor hardware) we discover a better price with another vendor or the original is out of stock, do we need to REDLINE the drawing BOM to reflect the actual vendor of the material?
We recently ran into this with several items being purchased from vendors other than the one listed on the BOM due to shortages or cost. We did NOT want to add cost to the project (Government) due to REDLINES of actual CAGE codes used. What is the expectation and acceptable process, and are there any directives on this issue?
