Tubo de choque, etc..

Explanation:
Penso que não se trata de sentido figurado. Trata-se de uma alteração num contrato para incluir um equipamento novo, ou com características diferentes "where there is no standard price list agreed with the supplier" (que não consta na lista de preços do fornecedor)

Falta saber que tipo de equipamento se trata. O IATE apresenta várias hipóteses, pelo resto do texto, penso que a consulente conseguirá descobrir.

"detonador/acionador" ativado por onda de choque

Explanation:
Sug.

IMO. Trata-se mesmo de incluir no contrato um tipo de dispositivo (detonador/iniciador) embora não conste um preço padrão na lista acordada com o fornecedor.

Asker: É, parece fazer sentido. Seria como o 'gatilho salarial' da época do Sarney

Sendo assim, creio então que o Marcos tem razão. Veja a definição do IATE http://iate.europa.eu/iatediff/SearchByQuery.do?method=searc...

Notes to answerer

Asker: Lígia, logo à frente aparece esta frase, onde acho que talvez 'exceção' não faça sentido: d. The supplier is changing the specification of one type of shock tube that they supply, and is looking to supply this new specification as an alternative to the item on the Contract
