52.212-4 Contract Terms and Conditions – Commercial Products and Commercial Services

(NOV 2023)

Addenda to 52.212-4:

Invoice Processing Platform (IPP). The Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) is a secure, web-based service that more efficiently manages government invoicing from purchase order (PO) through payment notification at no charge to federal agencies and their vendors.

The Forest Service is utilizing IPP for the electronic submission and tracking of contracts/purchase orders, invoices, and payment information. Payment through IPP is an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) into the Contractor’s bank account.

Vendors that are required to submit an invoice through IPP do not need to contact IPP to enroll.

Enrollment will occur directly through the agency they are doing business with. Once enrolled by an agency, vendors will receive two (2) emails from IPP (stls.ipphelpdesk@stls.frb.org) with IPP login ID and a temporary password.

Go to Collector-Quick-Reference-Guide.pdf for instructions on how to log into IPP.
