G.2 DESIGNATION OF CONTRACTING OFFICER’S REPRESENTATIVE

The Contracting Officer will designate a Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) at the time of contract award.

The COR is responsible for administering the performance of work under this contract. In no event, however, will any understanding, agreement, modification, change order, or other matter deviating from the terms of this contract be effective or binding upon the Government unless formalized by proper contractual documents executed by the Contracting Officer prior to completion of the contract.

The COR will act as a liaison between the U.S. Forest Service herein referred to as "Service" and the Contractor, and, when necessary, will provide technical direction to the Contractor. The COR, however, is not authorized to change any of the terms and conditions of the contract, issue new assignments of work, make decisions concerning disputes arising under the contract, or resolve differing site condition matters. Neither the presence nor absence of a government representative shall relieve the Contractor of its responsibilities under the contract.

The Contracting Officer should be informed as soon as possible of any actions or inactions by the Contractor or the Government which will change the required delivery or completion times stated in the contract, and the contract will be modified accordingly. (This does not apply to individual task assignments which were issued by the COR provided they do not affect the delivery schedule or performance period stated in the contract).

On all matters that pertain to the contract terms the Contractor must communicate with the Contracting Officer. Whenever, in the opinion of the Contractor, the COR requests effort outside the scope of the contract, the Contractor should so advise the COR. If the COR persists and there still exists a disagreement as to proper contractual coverage, the Contracting Officer should be notified immediately, preferably in writing if time permits. Proceeding with work without proper contractual coverage could result in nonpayment or necessitate submittal of a contract claim

G.3 TECHNICAL DIRECTION

The performance of the work required herein shall be subject to the technical direction and surveillance of the COR.

Nothing contained in this part authorizes the Contractor to incur costs in excess of the contract price or other limitation of funds set forth in the contract due to extra work performed in response to informal directions, suggestions, or instructions (oral or written) given by representatives of the CO, unless prior to commencing such work, the Contractor: 1) directly notifies the CO; 2) requests a formal contract modification; and 3) receives written authorization to proceed from the CO.

G.4 CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION

G.5 ELECTRONIC INVOICING AND PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS – INVOICE PROCESSING PLATFORM (IPP) Payment requests must be submitted electronically through the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) System. “Payment request” means any request for contract financing payment or invoice payment by the Contractor.
