Sections C.2 and C.11.1
Are all associated third party costs for title work, appraisal services, REO/property preservation, and Sherriff’s Sale/Auction subject to preapproval?
See Contract Section B.2, Secured Debt & Bankruptcy Proceeding. The Contractor will be paid for successful debt collections and associated litigation efforts for secured debts and bankruptcy proceedings (CLINs 0002 and 0003) on a fixed fee/rate basis for which funds will be incrementally obligated on the contract and adjusted as necessary to cover existing and/or anticipated workload. Additionally, the Contractor can be compensated for time spend on ancillary litigation issues on a firm-fixed hourly rate provided the Contractor obtained written approval prior to performing the work. The Contractor may be reimbursed for other direct costs and/or material costs on an actual cost basis provided the Contractor submits proof of the costs incurred. The Department reserves the right to reject any and all costs it deems unreasonable, unnecessary, or unsubstantiated.

See Contract Attachment J.2, Contract Line Item Numbers.

Cover page
Average age since assigned to DOJ is listed on the cover page, but not the average since default with originating Agenc(y)ies. Does DOJ know the average age since default.
The average age of a case since default is not easily determined at the aggregate level without reviewing each case.
