Delay in performing repairs because of the lack of materials, parts or supplies that should be expected to be locally available or failure of contractor to actively pursue the procurement of highly specialized materials, parts and supplies whose use could not be anticipated is sufficient reason for terminating the contract for default. 1.1.3 All materials, parts and supplies used in conjunction with this contract are subject to the approval of the Facilities Supervisor.
