The Contractor should use prudent and reasonable judgement to determine the timeframe necessary to notify the Government as defined above based on the situation, but it should not exceed a reasonable timeframe to notify the Government.

A reasonable timeframe to notify the Government of an attempted escape is after the detainee is safely within the confines of the building. A reasonable timeframe to report an actual escape in which the Contractor does not know the location of the detainee is as soon as the Contractor realizes there has been an escape. In the case of a conflict between the Program Office and the Contractor on a reasonable timeframe, the Contracting Officer will determine the appropriate reasonable timeframe.
