USCP52.006 Disputes

USCP Contract Disputes Clause (June 2008)

(a) This Agreement is subject to the Contract Disputes Act of 1978, as amended (41 U.S.C. 601-613), as modified by Section 1501 of Title I of Division H of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2008, Pub. L. No. 110-161, 121 Stat. 2249 (December 26, 2007). (b) Except as provided in the Act, all disputes arising under or relating to this Agreement shall be resolved under this clause.

(c) “Claim,” as used in this clause, means a written demand or written assertion by one of the contracting parties seeking, as a matter of right, the payment of money in a sum certain, the adjustment or interpretation of Agreement terms, or other relief arising under or relating to this Agreement. However, a written demand or written assertion by the Contractor seeking the payment of money exceed- ing $50,000 is not a claim under the Act until certified. A voucher, invoice, or other routine request for payment that is not in dispute when submitted is not a claim under the Act. The submission may be converted to a claim under the Act, by complying with the sub- mission and certification requirements of this clause, if it is disputed either as to liability or amount or is not acted upon in a reason- able time.

(d)(2)(iii) of this clause when submitting any claim exceeding $50,000.

(ii) The certification requirement does not apply to issues in controversy that have not been submitted as all or part of a claim. (iii) The certification shall state as follows: “I certify that the claim is made in good faith; that the supporting data are accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief; that the amount reques- ted accurately reflects the Agreement adjustment for which the Contractor believes the USCP is liable; and that I am duly authorized to certify the claim on behalf of the Contractor.”

20548; Facsimile: 202-512-9749; E-Mail: CAB@gao.gov.”

(g) If the claim by the Contractor is submitted to the Contracting Officer or a claim by the Government is presented to the Contractor, the parties, by mutual consent, may agree to use alternative dispute resolution (ADR). If the contractor refuses an offer for ADR, the

Contractor shall inform the Contracting Officer, in writing, of the Contractor’s specific reasons for rejecting the offer.

(h) The Government shall pay interest on the amount found due and unpaid from (1) the date that the Contracting Officer receives the claim (certified, if required); or (2) the date that payment otherwise would be due, if that date is later, until the date of payment. With regard to claims having defective certifications, as defined in FAR 33.201, interest shall be paid from the date that the Contracting Of- ficer initially receives the claim. Simple interest on claims shall be paid at the rate, fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury as provided in the Act, which is applicable to the period during which the Contracting Officer receives the claim and then at the rate applicable for each 6-month period as fixed by the Secretary of the Treasury during the pendency of the claim.

(i) The Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of this Contract, pending final resolution of any request for relief, claim, appeal, or action arising under the Contract, and comply with any decision of the Contracting Officer.

USCP52.007 Termination For Convenience

The Contracting Officer, by written notice, may terminate this contract, in whole or in part, when it is in the best interest of the USCP. Should the USCP terminate for convenience, the USCP shall be liable only for payment in accordance with the payment provisions of this contract for services rendered prior to the effective date of termination.

USCP52.018 Acceptance of the Terms of the Order

The terms and conditions of this order, including the face page of the order and all attached pages, must be accepted in their entirety. Additional terms and conditions, or variations in the Standard USCP Terms and Conditions are restricted to those that are expressly agreed to by the USCP in writing in this order or any modifications to this order. Shipment of any items or provision of any services under this order will be construed to constitute acceptance of these Terms and Condi- tions. If the Vendor believes that any of these Terms and Conditions do not reflect the intent of the parties or that the order contains any errors or omissions to the agreed upon terms of sale, the Vendor must contact the Contract Specialist listed in this order to request a modification to the terms that are omitted or in error, and must receive the signed modification prior to beginning performance on this order.
