This records schedule is one of a series of schedules, approved by the Archivist of the United States, which furnishes authoritative instructions for the retention, destruction, or retirement of records held by NASA Centers or other offices. This schedule grants continuing authority for the disposition of records already accumulated or to be accumulated in the future.
The records described in Schedule 5 pertain to the management and operation of NASA procurement and contracting functions. They are created and accumulated by organizations that have management control or formulate and prescribe procurement policies and procedures and by activities and offices applying these procedures. The schedule describes the pertinent records categories and specifies the retention period and disposition for each.
Agency procurement records document the acquisition of goods and nonpersonal services, reporting procurement needs, and related matters which are a part of daily procurement operations. The basic procurement files reflect a considerable range of procedures, from simple, small purchases to complicated prime contractor and subcontractor operations. Records created prior to 1958 must be offered to NARA for appraisal before applying the disposition instructions. All agencies have official contract files, which contain a minimum core of specified documents, but there are also other documents that vary in accordance with what each agency deems to be best for its own operating purposes. All of these documents make up the official file copy.
The key procurement file is the transaction case file containing the formal contract or informal purchase order or lease instruments and all related papers. The documents flowing into the file differ in detail, but they include, in addition to the purchase document, specifications, bids, schedules of delivery, initiating requisition, invoices, and correspondence. Other copies of these documents, made for expediting and other administrative purposes, are scattered throughout the inspection, shipping expediting, and other units of the agency procurement organization and are not considered a part of the official file. Other files related to procurement are the special documents referred to as title papers which document the acquisition of real property (by purchase, condemnation, donation, exchange or otherwise) these records are handled under Schedule 8 of this handbook.
This schedule also includes some of the records relating to grant programs. Since grant programs document projects contracted between this Agency and an outside party, these records are included as an adjunct to the procurement records.
