52.232-25 Prompt Payment. 2017-01

As prescribed in , insert the following clause:32.908(c)

Prompt Payment (JAN 2017)

Notwithstanding any other payment clause in this contract, the Government will make invoice payments under the terms and conditions specified in this clause. The Government considers payment as being made on the day a check is dated or the date of an electronic funds transfer (EFT). Definitions of pertinent terms are set forth in sections 2.101, 32.001, and 32.902 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation.

All days referred to in this clause are calendar days, unless otherwise specified. (However, see paragraph (a)(4) of this clause concerning payments due on Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays.)

Invoice payments- (a) Due date.(1)

Except as indicated in paragraphs (a)(2) and (c) of this clause, the due date for making invoice (i) payments by the designated payment office is the later of the following two events:

The 30 thday after the designated billing office receives a proper invoice from the Contractor (A) (except as provided in paragraph (a)(1)(ii) of this clause).

The 30 thday after Government acceptance of supplies delivered or services performed. For a (B) final invoice, when the payment amount is subject to contract settlement actions, acceptance is deemed to occur on the effective date of the contract settlement.

If the designated billing office fails to annotate the invoice with the actual date of receipt at the (ii) time of receipt, the invoice payment due date is the 30 thday after the date of the Contractor's invoice, provided the designated billing office receives a proper invoice and there is no disagreement over quantity, quality, or Contractor compliance with contract requirements.

Certain food products and other payments.(2)

Due dates on Contractor invoices for meat, meat food products, or fish; perishable agricultural (i) commodities; and dairy products, edible fats or oils, and food products prepared from edible fats or oils are-

For meat or meat food products, as defined in section 2(a)(3) of the Packers and Stockyard Act (A) of1921 (7 U.S.C.182(3)), and as further defined in Pub.L.98-181, including any edible fresh or frozen poultry meat, any perishable poultry meat food product, fresh eggs, and any perishable egg product, as close as possible to, but not later than, the 7 thday after product delivery.

For fresh or frozen fish, as defined in section 204(3) of the Fish and Seafood Promotion Act (B) of1986 (16 U.S.C.4003(3)), as close as possible to, but not later than, the 7 thday after product delivery.

For perishable agricultural commodities, as defined in section 1(4) of the Perishable Agricultural (C) Commodities Act of1930 (7 U.S.C.499a(4)), as close as possible to, but not later than, the 10 thday after product delivery, unless another date is specified in the contract.

For dairy products, as defined in section 111(e) of the Dairy Production Stabilization Act of1983 (D) (7 U.S.C.4502(e)), edible fats or oils, and food products prepared from edible fats or oils, as close as possible to, but not later than, the 10 thday after the date on which a proper invoice has been received.

Liquid milk, cheese, certain processed cheese products, butter, yogurt, ice cream, mayonnaise, salad dressings, and other similar products, fall within this classification. Nothing in the Act limits this classification to refrigerated products. When questions arise regarding the proper classification of a specific product, prevailing industry practices will be followed in specifying a contract payment due date. The burden of proof that a classification of a specific product is, in fact, prevailing industry practice is upon the Contractor making the representation.

If the contract does not require submission of an invoice for payment ( periodic lease (ii) e.g., payments), the due date will be as specified in the contract.

. The Contractor shall prepare and submit invoices to the designated billing (3) Contractor's invoice office specified in the contract. A proper invoice must include the items listed in paragraphs (a)(3)(i) through (a)(3)(x) of this clause. If the invoice does not comply with these requirements, the designated billing office will return it within 7 days after receipt (3 days for meat, meat food products, or fish; 5 days for perishable agricultural commodities, dairy products, edible fats or oils, and food products prepared from edible fats or oils), with the reasons why it is not a proper invoice. The Government will take into account untimely notification when computing any interest penalty owed the Contractor.

Name and address of the Contractor.(i)

Invoice date and invoice number. (The Contractor should date invoices as close as possible to the (ii) date of the mailing or transmission.)

Contract number or other authorization for supplies delivered or services performed (including (iii) order number and line item number).

Description, quantity, unit of measure, unit price, and extended price of supplies delivered or (iv) services performed.

Shipping and payment terms ( shipment number and date of shipment, discount for prompt (v) e.g., payment terms). Bill of lading number and weight of shipment will be shown for shipments on Government bills of lading.

Name and address of Contractor official to whom payment is to be sent (must be the same as that (vi) in the contract or in a proper notice of assignment).

Name (where practicable), title, phone number, and mailing address of person to notify in the (vii) event of a defective invoice.

Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN). The Contractor shall include its TIN on the invoice only (viii) if required elsewhere in this contract.

Electronic funds transfer (EFT) banking information.(ix)

The Contractor shall include EFT banking information on the invoice only if required elsewhere (A) in this contract.

If EFT banking information is not required to be on the invoice, in order for the invoice to be a (B) proper invoice, the Contractor shall have submitted correct EFT banking information in accordance with the applicable solicitation provision ( 52.232-38, Submission of Electronic Funds Transfer e.g., Information with Offer), contract clause ( 52.232-33, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer-System e.g., for Award Management, or 52.232-34, Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer-Other Than System for Award Management), or applicable agency procedures.

EFT banking information is not required if the Government waived the requirement to pay by (C)

EFT.

Any other information or documentation required by the contract ( evidence of shipment).(x) e.g., . The designated payment office will pay an interest penalty automatically, without (4) Interest penalty request from the Contractor, if payment is not made by the due date and the conditions listed in paragraphs (a)(4)(i) through (a)(4)(iii) of this clause are met, if applicable. However, when the due date falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, the designated payment office may make payment on the following working day without incurring a late payment interest penalty.

The designated billing office received a proper invoice.(i)

The Government processed a receiving report or other Government documentation authorizing (ii) payment, and there was no disagreement over quantity, quality, or Contractor compliance with any contract term or condition.

In the case of a final invoice for any balance of funds due the Contractor for supplies delivered or (iii) services performed, the amount was not subject to further contract settlement actions between the Government and the Contractor.

. The Government will compute the interest penalty in accordance with (5) Computing penalty amount the Office of Management and Budget prompt payment regulations at .5 CFR Part 1315

For the sole purpose of computing an interest penalty that might be due the Contractor, (i) Government acceptance is deemed to occur constructively on the 7 thday (unless otherwise specified in this contract) after the Contractor delivers the supplies or performs the services in accordance with the terms and conditions of the contract, unless there is a disagreement over quantity, quality, or Contractor compliance with a contract provision. If actual acceptance occurs within the constructive acceptance period, the Government will base the determination of an interest penalty on the actual date of acceptance. The constructive acceptance requirement does not, however, compel Government officials to accept supplies or services, perform contract administration functions, or make payment prior to fulfilling their responsibilities.

The prompt payment regulations at 5 CFR1315.10(c) do not require the Government to pay (ii) interest penalties if payment delays are due to disagreement between the Government and the Contractor over the payment amount or other issues involving contract compliance, or on amounts temporarily withheld or retained in accordance with the terms of the contract.
