B.8 Special Cost Requirements The Contractor will be reimbursed for all allowable, allocable and reasonable expenditures incurred in the performance of work under Section B.4, Supplies and/or Services to be Provided, of this contract subject to the following limitations:

(a) Provisional Indirect Billing Rate

(1) Provisional billing rates for indirect costs shall be set at the discretion of the Contracting Officer based upon proposals from the Contractor and information resulting from recent review, previous rate audits, similar reliable data, or experience of other contracting activities. In establishing billing rates, the Contracting Officer should ensure that the billing rates are as close as possible to the final indirect cost rates anticipated for the Contractor’s fiscal period, as adjusted for any unallowable costs. These provisional billing rates shall be specified in writing and may be revised either retroactively or prospectively by the Contracting Officer. Once per year and no less than ninety (90) days prior to each contract period, the Contractor and associated subcontractors shall submit a proposal for the coming year’s provisional billing rates. If during the course of any particular year a significant disparity arises between the approved provisional billing rates and the actual rates, the Contractor and associated subcontractors shall submit a proposal requesting consideration for revision of the provisional rates. After expiration of each Government fiscal year, the Contractor and associated subcontractors shall submit a proposal requesting consideration for revision of the provisional indirect billing rates to the actual rates. Contractor and subcontractor rate adjustment proposals shall be submitted and processed concurrently once approval is granted by the Contracting Officer through a contract modification.

(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (a)(1) above and the terms of Section I clause, FAR 52.216-7 Allowable Cost and Payment, the provisional indirect rates will be examined at the conclusion of each contract year and, if necessary and warranted in the judgment of the Contracting Officer, may be adjusted upward or downward for future years.
