Answer 1

Answer: D. Deliver the specified end product within 10 business days.

Step-by-step explanation:

DPAS is short for Defense Priorities and Allocation System. Its activities are coordinated by the Department of commerce. it is used to finalize contracts that are related to National Defense in the United States.

It is useful in the execution of military and energy programs as well as preparation for emergencies.

It is not compulsory that the specified end product must be delivered within 10 business days. Sometimes contractors may not be able to deliver before an agreed date. At such times,the customer ought to be informed of the earliest date on which the delivery can be made.

Answer 2

C). Deliver the specified end product within 10 business days

Step-by-step explanation:

A Defence Priorities and Allocations System (DPAS) rated order is a purchase or contract order that is in line with the terms of DPAS.

When a DPAS rated order is placed, the contractor must do the following; accept the rated order, be able to provide preferential delivery and the contractor must in the same light place rated orders with subcontractors.

What DPAS does not do, is to give contractors a stipulated time, e.g 10 business days to deliver the specified end product.
