Invoicing

Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) is added to this order. The Invoice submission is changed to require the use of the online Invoice Processing Platform (IPP). The Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) is a Web-based system that more efficiently manages government invoicing from purchase

FAC 2025-04 June 11, 2025 order (PO) through payment notification. IPP is a secure online platform outside federal agencies' core financial systems that centralizes all invoice transaction data and documents in one place. The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Financial Management Service offers IPP, and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston manages its implementation and operations. The National Finance Center (NFC) began notifying USDA existing contractors that IPP online registration is required for doing business with USDA. Visit https://www.ipp.gov/ to enroll. The Contractor must now submit invoices online via the Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) for existing and new awards.

Invoice Details: The Contractor’s invoice must be completely detailed to include, but not be limited to: GSA Schedule Number, Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) Number; Call number;

period of service (i.e. January 1-31, 2019), full description of services provided; labor category (if applicable); contract line item billed against; number of hours billed against the specific line item; unit price; extended price; invoice total; Contractor name, address, telephone and contact person; invoice number and date. Incorrect invoices will be rejected and returned to the Contractor.

Invoice against Line Item: The Contractor must identify and invoice against each individual line item in accordance with the applicable order for service.

Invoice Billing Schedule: The Contractor must identify an Invoice Billing Schedule in each proposal. The Contractor shall not bill in advance of services being performed. The Contractor shall submit no more than one (1) invoice per month for the previous month’s services. The Contractor must note in the price proposal whether the contractor intends to bill monthly or upon completion of all services for the applicable order.

Final Invoice, Release of Claims Required To Closeout Task Orders and the Contract Completion Statement: The Contractor must complete and submit Release of Claim & Contract Completion Statement (signed by the COR/TPM) to the Call COR Contracting Officer not later than 15 business days, after submission of the Contractor’s final invoice (which completes services) through the online Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) and after all remaining unliquidated balances have been de-obligated by the Order Contracting Officer via modification, which is needed for the closeout process.

Continuous Integration and Deployment (CI/CD)

In accordance with the Federal guidelines (Executive Order 14028) in improving cybersecurity and software supply chain security, the FS requires all vendor solutions or custom code to follow the FS configuration management, change management, and release management guidelines and will adopt FS continuous integration (CI) capabilities for code quality (including linting), code security vulnerability scanning, 508 testing and approved architecture to continuous deployment (CD) and monitoring. FS has standardized a CI/CD pipeline solution for all application solutions and infrastructure provisioning, also known as DevSecOps platform. All custom-developed solutions or provisioning of the FS mission support-related solutions or provisioning of environments must leverage the FS DevSecOps platform and meet the standards identified by the FS Chief Information Office (CIO).

FAC 2025-04 June 11, 2025

For consistency in solution Reliability, Maintainability and Scalability adherence to the FS CI/CD process and solution adoption is a must requirement for all code delivery and acceptance.

All applications Architecture must be approved by the Architecture Review Board before code/solution development.

All solutions must be hosted in the FS CIO-approved environment. Per NIST guidelines to maintain separation of duties, FS CIO is responsible for the access, provisioning, maintenance, and operations of the system.
