FAR and DFARS › DFARS Part 252: Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses › Subpart 252.2

DFARS 252.237-7016 Delivery tickets.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This DFARS clause requires contractors to complete delivery tickets in the form and number of copies the Contracting Officer approves when receiving articles for service, and to attach one copy of each ticket to their invoice for payment. The alternate versions add extra steps for weighing and identifying bag type at pickup and delivery. It matters because proper delivery tickets are tied to getting paid.

Applies to: Contractors performing laundry and dry cleaning services under contracts that include this clause

What it requires

  • Complete delivery tickets in the required number of copies and in the form approved by the Contracting Officer when receiving articles to be serviced
  • Include one copy of each delivery ticket with the invoice for payment
  • Under Alternate I: verify and record weight and bag type on the delivery ticket at pickup and provide a copy to the Contracting Officer or representative
  • Under Alternate I: record the weight and bag type of serviced laundry on the delivery ticket at delivery
