# Question Response

FAR Clause 52.242-14, Suspension of Work applies when a fixed-price construction or architect-engineer contract is contemplated.

Solicitation N00024-18-R-2300 is exempt from CAS (48 CFR 9903.201-1 -- CAS Applicability) as it is a “(15) Firm-fixed-price contracts or subcontracts awarded on the basis of adequate price competition without submission of cost or pricing data.” As such, 52.243-6, 52.230-2, 52.230-4, and 52.230-6 are not applicable.

2) Will the Government remove 52.243-6 Change Order Accounting, 52.230-2 Cost Accounting Standards, 52.230-4 Disclosure and Consistency of Cost Accounting Practices – Foreign Concerns, and 52.230-6 Administration of Cost Accounting Standards from this solicitation?
