16. Regarding: 5.2.3.2 Contracting Officer Representative shall provide the contractor with the meal count 72 hours prior to the serving period. The vendor shall accept additions up to 24 hours prior to the serving period. The Government shall pay at least 85% of the meal count regardless of the number of meals served. If the number of meals served is over 85% the Government will pay for all meals served. Does this mean that the task order given for the month is honored at 85% regardless of the updated headcount?
