(End of provision)
3.2.4-5 ALLOWABLE COST AND PAYMENT (OCT 2019)
(a) Invoicing. The Government will make payments to the Contractor when requested as work progresses, but (except for small business concerns) not more often than once every 2 weeks, in amounts determined to be allowable by the Contracting Officer in accordance with the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) "Contract Cost Principles" in effect on the date of this contract and the terms of this contract (upon request, the Contracting Officer will provide a copy of the FAA Contract Cost Principles). The Contractor may submit to an authorized representative of the Contracting Officer, in such form and reasonable detail as the representative may require, an invoice or voucher supported by a statement of the claimed allowable cost for performing this contract. Any payments for costs under this contract, particularly for costs of Indirect Rates under paragraph (d), must be subject to the provisions of the "Limitation of Costs" clause, or the "Limitation of Funds" clause, if applicable. The Contractor must be responsible to manage and control the allowable cost of performance of the contract, such that payments for any allowable costs, including Indirect Rates under paragraph (d), must not exceed the estimated cost set forth in the schedule, or the funded amount, less an allowance for fee, if the contract is incrementally funded.
(b) Reimbursing costs.
(1) For the purpose of reimbursing allowable costs (except as provided in subparagraph (2) below, with respect to pension, deferred profit sharing, and employee stock ownership plan contributions), the term costs includes only:
(i) Those costs the Contractor has incurred and recorded at the time of the request for reimbursement;
(ii) When the Contractor is not delinquent in paying costs of contract performance in the ordinary course of business, costs incurred, but not necessarily paid for-
(A) Materials issued from the Contractor's inventory and placed in the production process for use on the contract;
(B) Direct labor;
(C) Direct travel;
(D) Other direct in-house costs; and
(E) Properly allocable and allowable indirect costs, as shown in the records maintained by the Contractor for purposes of obtaining reimbursement under FAA contracts; and
(iii) The amount of payments that have been paid to the Contractor's subcontractors under similar cost standards.
(2) Contractor contributions to any pension or other post-retirement benefit, profit-sharing or employee stock ownership plan funds that are paid quarterly or more often may be included in indirect costs for payment purposes: Provided, that the Contractor pays the contribution to the fund within 30 days after the close of the period covered. Payments made 31 days or more after the close of a period must not be included until the Contractor actually makes the payment. Accrued costs for such contributions that are paid less often than quarterly must be excluded from indirect costs for payment purposes until the Contractor actually makes the payment.
(3) Notwithstanding the audit and adjustment of invoices or vouchers under paragraph (g) below, allowable indirect costs under this contract must be obtained by applying indirect cost rates established in accordance with paragraph (d) below.
(4) Any statements in specifications or other documents incorporated in this contract by reference designating performance of services or furnishing of materials at the Contractor's expense or at no cost to the Government will be disregarded for purposes of cost-reimbursement under this clause.
(c) Small business concerns. A small business concern may be paid more often than every 2 weeks and may invoice and be paid for recorded costs for items or services purchased directly for the contract, even though the concern has not yet paid for those items or services.
(d) Final indirect cost rates.
(1) Final annual indirect cost rates and the appropriate bases must be established for the period covered by the indirect cost rate proposal.
(2) The Contractor must, within 180 days after the expiration of each of its fiscal years, or by a later date approved by the Contracting Officer, submit to the cognizant Contracting Officer and to the cognizant audit activity proposed certified final indirect cost rates for that period and supporting cost data specifying the contract and/or subcontract to which the rates apply. The proposed rates must be based on the Contractor's actual cost experience for that period. The appropriate Government representative and Contractor will establish the final indirect cost rates as promptly as practical after receipt of the Contractor's proposal.
(i) An adequate indirect cost rate proposal must include the following data unless otherwise specified by the cognizant Contracting Officer:
(A) Summary of all claimed indirect expense rates, including pool, base, and calculated indirect rate.
(B) General and Administrative expenses (final indirect cost pool). Schedule of claimed expenses by element of cost as identified in accounting records (Chart of Accounts).
(C) Overhead expenses (final indirect cost pool). Schedule claimed expenses by element of cost as identified in accounting records (Chart of Accounts) for each final indirect cost pool.
(D) Occupancy expenses (intermediate indirect cost pool). Schedule of claimed expenses by element of cost as identified in accounting records (Charts of Accounts) and expense reallocation to final indirect cost pools.
(E) Claimed allocation bases, by element of cost, used to distribute indirect costs.
(F) Facilities capital cost of money factors computation.
(G) Reconciliation of books of account (i.e., General Ledger) and claimed direct costs by major cost elements.
(H) Schedule of direct costs by contract and subcontract and indirect expense applied at claimed rates, as well as a subsidiary schedule of Government participation percentages in each of the allocation base amounts.
(I) Schedule of cumulative direct and indirect costs claimed and billed by contract and subcontract.
(J) Subcontract information. Listing of subcontracts awarded to companies for which the contractor is the prime or upper-tier contractor (include prime and subcontract numbers;
subcontract value and award type; amount claimed during the fiscal year; and the subcontractor name, address, and point of contract information).

(N) Certificate of final indirect cost.
(O) Contract closing information for contracts physically completed in this fiscal year (include contract number, period of performance, contract ceiling amounts, contract fee computations, level of effort, and indicate if the contract is ready to close).
(3) The Contractor and the appropriate Government representative will execute a written understanding setting forth the final indirect cost rates. The understanding will specify (i) the agreed-upon final annual indirect cost rates, (ii) the bases to which the rates apply, (iii) the periods for which the rates apply, (iv) any specific indirect cost items treated as direct costs in the settlement, and (v) the affected contract and/or subcontract, identifying any with advance agreements or special terms and the applicable rates. The understanding will not change any monetary ceiling, contract obligation, or specific cost allowance or disallowance provided for in this contract. The understanding is incorporated into this contract upon execution.
(4) After final annual direct cost rates are established for specific period, the contractor must update the billings on all contracts to reflect the final settled rates and update the schedule of cumulative direct and indirect costs claimed and billed as required by paragraph d(2)(i)(l) of this clause.
(5) Failure by the parties to agree on a final annual indirect cost rate may be the basis of a claim under the "Contract Disputes" clause.
(e) Billing rates. Until final annual indirect cost rates are established for any period, the Government will reimburse the Contractor at billing rates established by the Contracting Officer or by an authorized representative (the cognizant auditor), subject to adjustment when the final rates are established. These billing rates-
(1) Must be the anticipated final rates; and
(2) May be prospectively or retroactively revised by mutual agreement, at either party's request, to prevent substantial overpayment or underpayment.
(f) Quick-close-out procedures. When the Contractor and Contracting Officer agree, the quick-close-out procedures may be used.
(1) Procedures. Settlement of indirect cost rates must apply to this contract, in advance of the determination of final indirect cost rates, if:
(i) The contract is physically complete;
(ii) The amount of unsettled indirect cost to be allocated to this contract is not more than $5,000,000 and the cumulative unsettled indirect costs to be allocated to one or more contracts in a single fiscal year do not exceed 15 percent of the estimated, total unsettled indirect costs allocable to cost-type contracts for that fiscal year; and
(iii) Agreement can be reached on a reasonable estimate of allocable dollars.
(2) The settlement must be final for this contract and no adjustment will be made to other contracts for over- or under-recoveries of costs allocated or allocable to this contract.
(3) The settlement will not be considered a binding precedent when establishing the final indirect costs for other contracts.
(4) These procedures may also be used for the settlement of direct and indirect costs for individual task and delivery orders.
(g) Audit. At any time or times before final payment, the Contracting Officer may have the Contractor's invoices or vouchers and statements of cost audited. Any payment may be (1) reduced by amounts found by the Contracting Officer not to constitute allowable costs or (2) adjusted for prior overpayments or underpayments.
(h) Final payment.
(1) The Contractor must submit a completion invoice or voucher, designated as such, promptly upon completion of the work, but no later than 120 days (or longer, as the Contracting Officer may approve in writing) after settlement of final annual indirect rates for all years. Upon approval of that invoice or voucher, and upon the Contractor's compliance with all terms of this contract, the Government will promptly pay any balance of allowable costs and that part of the fee (if any) not previously paid.
(2) The Contractor must pay to the Government any refunds, rebates, credits, or other amounts (including interest, if any) accruing to or received by the Contractor or any assignee under this contract, to the extent that those amounts are properly allocable to costs for which the Contractor has been reimbursed by the Government. Reasonable expenses incurred by the Contractor for securing refunds, rebates, credits, or other amounts will be allowable costs if approved by the Contracting Officer. Before final payment under this contract, the Contractor and each assignee whose assignment is in effect at the time of final payment must execute and deliver-
(i) An assignment to the Government, in form and substance satisfactory to the Contracting Officer, of refunds, rebates, credits, or other amounts (including interest, if any) properly allocable to costs for which the Contractor has been reimbursed by the Government under this contract; and
(ii) A release discharging the Government, its officers, agents, and employees from all liabilities, obligations, and claims arising out of or under this contract, except-
(A) Specified claims stated in exact amounts, or in estimated amounts when the exact amounts are not known;
(B) Claims (including reasonable incidental expenses) based upon liabilities of the Contractor to third parties arising out of the performance of this contract; provided, that the claims are not known to the Contractor on the date of the execution of the release, and that the Contractor gives notice of the claims in writing to the Contracting Officer within 6 years following the release date or notice of final payment date, whichever is earlier;
and
(C) Claims for reimbursement of costs, including reasonable incidental expenses, incurred by the Contractor under the patent clauses of this contract, excluding, however, any expenses arising from the Contractor's indemnification of the Government against patent liability.

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause
"Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number" means the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify unique business entities.
"Data Universal Numbering System +4 (DUNS+4) number" means the DUNS number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.)
This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the same parent concern.
"Registered in the SAM database" means that the Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, into the SAM database.
"System for Award Management (SAM) Database" means the primary Government repository for Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.
(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee must be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.
(2) The offeror must enter, in Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors Section of the solicitation, the DUNS or DUNS +4 number that identifies the offeror's name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The DUNS number will be used by the Contracting Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the SAM database.
(c) If the offeror does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.
(1) An offeror may obtain a DUNS number
(i) If located within the United States, by calling Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 or via the Internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform; or
(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office.
(2) The offeror should be prepared to provide the following information:
(i) Company legal business.
(ii) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.
(iii) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and ZIP Code.
(iv) Company Mailing Address, City, State and ZIP Code (if different from physical street address).
(v) Company Telephone Number.
(vi) Date the company was started.
(vii) Number of employees at your location.
(viii) Chief executive officer/key manager.
(ix) Line of business (industry).
(x) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship within your entity).
(d) If the offeror does not become registered in the SAM database in the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer may proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered offeror.
(e) Processing time, which normally takes 48 hours, should be taken into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this solicitation.
(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. If registered in SAM as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), by submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges that they are designated as a SDVOSB by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and this designation appears as such on the Veteran Affairs website, https://www.vip.vetbiz.gov.
(g)(1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name, "doing business as" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance, the Contractor must provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to:
(A) change the name in the SAM database;
(B) comply with the requirements of AMS regarding novation and change-of-name agreements; and
(C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide the Contracting Officer with the notification, sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.
(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.
(2) The Contractor must not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees must be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.
(h) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at http://www.sam.gov.
