4-4.3 Revocation of Acceptance in Whole or in Part The purchase⁄SCM team, represented by the CO, can revoke acceptance of a nonconforming product or service if original acceptance: Resulted from the reasonable assumption that the nonconformance would be corrected, but it is not corrected. Took place because the nonconformance has not been discovered before acceptance as a result of the difficulty of discovery (e.g., hidden defects) or because of the supplier’s assurances. The Postal Service has the same rights and duties upon revocation as upon rejection. Revocation of acceptance must occur within a reasonable time after the CO discovers the deficiency. These issues are addressed in paragraph a of Clause 4-1: General Terms and Conditions and Clause 2-1: Inspection and Acceptance.
