About this file
This is a Liquidated Damages Formulation Memo for Solicitation Number 36C244, Project 595-21-103, Replace Steam, Condensate, and Vaults Phase 1, at the Lebanon-Altoona VAMC under VISN 4 of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The memo establishes a daily liquidated damages rate of $725.00 per calendar day for contractor delays beyond the scheduled completion date.
The liquidated damages calculation is derived from two cost categories: VISN 4 Contracting and Legal reviews ($384.30 per day) and Facility Engineering oversight including a Projects Supervisor, Project Engineer, and Construction Control Representative ($339.97 per day). Wage rates are based on 2022 General Schedule Locality Pay for Pittsburgh and 2025 rates for Harrisburg with Special Rate Table 773 adjustments. The memo specifies that liquidated damages are compensatory in nature and that the government retains the right to pursue actual damages separately from those assessed for missed completion dates, in accordance with FAR 36.206.
