had been incurred after the increase in the ceiling price.

**H.4 SPECIAL PMO SUPPORT REQUIREMENTS**

Specialized PMO support requirements that require labor/skill categories
not specifically called for by the SOW may arise during the performance
period of this contract. Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) 0010, 0011,
0020, 0021, 0030 and 0031 have been established to recognize this type
of special PMO support.

#### H.5 AUTHORIZATION\--SPECIAL PMO SUPPORT REQUIREMENTS

items or fixed hourly rate items.

\(i\) CLINs 0010, 0020 and 0030 -- Fixed-Price Items. The Contracting
Officer and Contractor may, where appropriate, negotiate a fixed-price
for certain special PMO support requirements.

\(ii\) CLINs 0011, 0021 and 0031 -- Fixed Hourly Rate Items. Specialized
PMO support requirements that require labor/skill categories not
specifically stated in the PWS may arise during the performance of the
contract (See H.1). Accordingly, the Contracting Officer and Contractor
may, where appropriate, negotiate fixed hourly prices for certain
special support requirements.

\(e\) At any time during contract performance, when sufficient data
becomes available on a repetitive task being performed in the fixed
hourly rate category, either the Contractor or the Contracting Officer
may request a negotiation to establish a firm-fixed-price for that item
for the remaining life of the contract. Any such change shall be
incorporated through contract modification.

**H.6** **NOTIFICATION OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY BY CONTRACT CLA.0069**

**EMPLOYEE (JuLY 2001)**

Upon learning that contractor personnel with authorized access to FAA
facilities/resources has been charged by a law enforcement agency for
any criminal offense other than minor traffic offense, the contractor
shall provide written notification within one workday to the Contracting
Officer. The Contracting Officer (CO) shall then notify the FAA
Servicing Security Element (SSE) AMC-700 at the Aeronautical Center in
writing. A traffic offense will be considered minor when the maximum
fine that could be imposed is \$300 or less. The contractor will be
notified of the impact that the charge or results of the charge have on
the contractor\'s affected personnel as soon as a determination is
provided to the CO by the SSE.

**H.7** **SAFETY AND HEALTH (JUNE 2002) CLA.0090**

\(a\) The Contractor shall assure that no person employed on this
contract works in surroundings or under conditions that are unsanitary,
hazardous, or dangerous to their health or safety. The contractor shall
also ensure that all employees received appropriate and required safety,
health, environmental, and equipment operational training. In fulfilling
these requirements, the Contractor shall comply with:

\(1\) Department of Labor Safety and Health Standards for Construction
under Section 107 of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act
(40 U.S.C. 327 et seq. and CFR 1960).

\(2\) Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, (Public Law 91-598 and
29 CFR 1960) and applicable rules and regulations as may have been
delegated to the States.

\(3\) Supplemental FAA safety and health requirements contained in FAA
Order 3900.19B and Order AC3900.21E, Chg 1, or elsewhere in the
contract. Other standards used by FAA include the National Fire Codes,
American National Standards Institute, American Society of Testing and
Materials (ASTM), AC 3940.1C (Procedures for handling injury, illness,
or fire at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center), etc. This list of
standards or laws is not inclusive. Other safety and health FAA
regulations can be found in the 3900 classification series entitled,
"Employee Health and Safety." Other environmental FAA regulations can be

Representative (COTR) will notify the Contractor of any such
noncompliance and the Contractor shall take immediate corrective action.
Such notice, whether oral or written, when served on the Contractor or
any of its employees at the site of the work, shall be deemed
sufficient. If the Contractor fails or refuses to promptly correct the
condition, the COTR may stop all or any portion of the work. When
satisfactory corrective action has been taken, the contractor shall
request permission to resume work from the COTR. No time extension or
additional costs, resulting from the directive to stop work shall be
allowed. Failure of the COTR to provide notice of noncompliance or to
stop work shall not relieve the Contractor of its responsibility for the
safe performance of the work.

\(d\) The Contractor shall require contract personnel to wear personal
protective equipment when it is necessary because of the hazards on the
job and in most instances will provide the equipment, except that which
has been specified to be furnished by FAA. All personal protective

protection provided to Government employees.

\(e\) Contractors shall include a clause in all subcontracts to require
subcontractors to comply with this clause.

## H.8 REQUIREMENT FOR SCREENING OF CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL CLA.1262

##  (JULY 2001) 

\(a\) **Contractor Screening of Personnel.** The operation of this
contract is intended to promote the continued safe and secure operation
of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) facilities, systems and
resources that comprise or support the National Aerospace System. Access
to most FAA locations, systems and equipment is restricted and
controlled by the responsible FAA Servicing Security Element. No rights
of access to FAA facilities or resources are conferred to the contractor
or contractor personnel by this contract. The contractor is responsible
for identifying and providing qualified and acceptable personnel in
performance of the contract. To meet this requirement, the contractor
shall perform routine personnel screening prior to personnel having
access to any FAA facility, resources, or sensitive information.

\(1\) The contractor shall obtain a criminal history report of the
prospective employee from the appropriate state authority, i.e., the
state where the individual was last employed. If the criminal history
report reveals an occurrence of activity listed in paragraphs 1 through
6 of the contract attachment entitled \"Screening Standards-Contractor\"
within the preceding 9 years, the prospective employee shall not be
allowed access to any FAA facility, resources, or sensitive information.
Payment of any fees charged for such criminal history reports shall be
the responsibility of the contractor. If the cost is included in the
price of the contract, it shall be subject to the usual tests of
allocability and reasonableness.

\(2\) The Government expects that the contractor will normally contact
prospective employees\' previous employer(s) for employment history, and
apply the contractor\'s customary standards for employment suitability.
If this employment history check reveals a documented occurrence of
activity listed in paragraph 7 of the contract attachment entitled
\"Screening Standards - CONTRACTOR\" within the preceding 9 years, the
prospective employee shall not be allowed access to any FAA facility,
resources, or sensitive information.

\(3\) When specific experience or educational requirements apply to
personnel performing on the contract, the contractor shall verify
prospective employees\' claimed experience or educational
qualifications.

\(b\) **Government Screening Standards for Contractor Personnel.**

\(1\) The Contractor shall inform prospective employees that the FAA
will perform background investigations on contractor personnel prior to
their gaining access to any Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
facility, resource or sensitive information/system in performance of the
contract.

\(2\) Prior to placing any employee in a position having access to FAA
facilities, resources or sensitive information, the contractor shall
provide that employee a copy of the contract attachment entitled
\"Adjudicative Standards: Issues\". (Appendix 6, FAA Order 1600.72). In
addition, the contractor must advise the prospective employee of FAA's
intent to employ such adjudicative standards in determining employee
access as described above.

\(3\) Any personnel the contractor employs to work on FAA facilities and
resources found to have a conviction history within nine (9) years prior
to beginning performance under this contract shall be denied access to
any FAA-controlled facility/resource. No access will be granted until
the Government's background investigation is complete and a favorable
determination made as a result of the adjudication process.

\(c\) Upon written request to the CO or his/her designated
representative, the FAA may waive the screening requirements with
respect to:

\(1\) a contractor employee that has had a FAA background investigation
within the previous five years, with uninterrupted employment and
performance on a FAA facility, and a record of acceptable behavior; or

\(2\) a contractor employee that has had a FAA background investigation
within the previous 12 months, with interrupted employment and
performance on a FAA facility, and a record of acceptable behavior.

\(d\) If in unusual circumstances the contractor finds it necessary to
utilize a person that does not meet the requirements of paragraph (a),
the FAA may at its sole discretion, grant a waiver to this clause.
Contractor\'s request for waiver shall be in writing to the contracting
officer, providing information about mitigating circumstances to the
negative screening results, and explain why the person should have
access to FAA facilities, resources or sensitive information. The FAA
will grant or deny the waiver request in writing within 15 days
following receipt. The decision to grant or deny the waiver is solely
the FAA\'s, and is not subject to appeal or to the \"Disputes\" clause
of this contract. The contractor understands that access suitability
determinations by the responsible Security Servicing Element, although
conclusive under this contract, derive legal standing independent of the
contract.

\(e\) If the contractor fails to perform the required screening, or
disregards the results of the screening, and subject personnel are found
to be unacceptable as a result of FAA background investigation(s), the
contractor shall be responsible for FAA\'s cost of subsequent FAA
background investigation(s) of the replacement personnel. The cost of
additional FAA background investigation(s) may be deducted from requests
for payment under the contract.

\(f\) The Contractor shall retain all reports and related documentation
pertaining to (a)(1) through (3) for the duration of this contract, and
shall make them available for review by the contracting officer, or
his/her designated representative, within 10 days of written request.

\(g\) Neither the time required to perform the screening, nor the impact
of any personnel action(s) required as a consequence of the screening
shall be considered an \"excusable delay\" as described in the
\"Default\" clause of this contract.

\(h\) Notwithstanding the diligent effort of the contractor to provide
qualified and acceptable personnel for performance of the contract, the
CO may by written notice deny access to FAA facilities, resources, or
sensitive information to those personnel who have been deemed
incompetent, careless, dangerous, unsuitable or otherwise objectionable,
former federal employees in violation of a post-employment restriction,
or those whose continued presence on Government property is contrary to
the public interest or inconsistent with the interest of national
security. The Contractor shall fill out, and cause each of its personnel
on the contract to fill out for submission to the Government, such forms
as may be necessary for security or other reasons relating to
qualifications and suitability for contract work. Upon request of the
CO, the Contractor\'s personnel shall be fingerprinted.

**H.9** **FAA FACILITY REGULATIONS (JULY 2001) CLA.3402**

Contractor personnel, including employees of subcontractors, suppliers,
etc., working or visiting an FAA facility, shall abide by all
appropriate traffic, parking, security, and airport regulations in
effect at that facility.

**H.10 GOVERNMENT-ISSUED KEYS/PERSONAL IDENTIFICATION** **CLA.3403**

**VERIFICATION** **(PIV)** **CARDS** **AND VEHICLE DECALS (JUNE**
**2006)**

\(a\) It may become necessary for the Government to issue keys, personal
identification verification (PIV) cards or vehicle decals to contractor
personnel. Prior to or upon completion or termination of the work
required hereunder, the contractor shall return all such government
issued items to the issuing office with notification to the Contracting
Officer Technical Representative (COTR).

When contract personnel who have been issued such items, either directly
by the Government or through the contract supervisor, no longer require
them to perform the work, the Government issued items shall be returned
to the Government within three workdays. Additionally, unauthorized
duplication or use of such keys, PIV cards or decals is a violation of
security procedures and is prohibited.

\(b\) In the event such keys, PIV cards, or vehicle decals are not
returned, the contractor understands and agrees that the Government may,
in addition to any other withholding provision of the contract, withhold
\$200 for each key, PIV card, or vehicle decal not returned. If the
keys, PIV cards, or vehicle decals are not returned within 30 days from
the date the withholding action was initiated, the contractor will
forfeit any amount so withheld.

\(c\) Access to aircraft ramp/hangar areas is authorized only to those
persons displaying a flight line identification card (F) and, for
vehicles, a current ramp permit issued pursuant to Part 107 of the
Federal Aviation Regulations. Access to certain areas of the Logistics'
Center, such as the Technical Support Facility (TSF) and Logistics'
Support Facility (LSF) is authorized only to those persons displaying a
Logistics' identification card (L). Access to the computer room in the
Multi-Purpose Building is authorized only to those persons displaying a
proper computer (C) identification card.

\(d\) The Government retains the right to inspect, inventory, or audit
the PIV cards, keys and vehicle decals issued to the contractor in
connection with the contract at the convenience of the Government. Any
items not accounted for to the satisfaction of the Government shall be
assumed to be lost and the provisions of paragraph (b) shall apply.

\(e\) Keys shall be obtained from the [COTR]{.underline} who will
require the contractor to sign a receipt for each key obtained. Lost
keys or identification media shall immediately be reported concurrently
to the Contracting Officer (CO), [COTR]{.underline}, the Security and
Investigations Division, AMC-700 and the Office of Facility Management,
AMP-300.

\(f\) Each contract employee, during all times of on-site performance at
the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, shall prominently display his/her
current and valid PIV card on the front portion of their body between
the neck and waist.

\(1\) Prior to any contractor personnel obtaining any pass or PIV card,
the contractor shall submit complete documentation required under Clause
4554, entitled *[Security -- Unescorted Access Only]{.underline}*.

\(2\) To obtain the PIV card contractor personnel shall submit an
Identification Card/Credential Application, (DOT 1681), signed by the
employee, authorized by the CO and/or the COTR, and will require the
approval/signature of the designated \"sponsor" or alternate. The DOT
1681 shall be submitted at the same time the personnel security
investigation paperwork required by Clause 4554 entitled *[Security --
Unescorted Access Only]{.underline}*, is submitted. The DOT 1681 shall
contain, as a minimum, under the "Credential Justification" heading, the
name of the contractor/company, the contract number or the appropriate
acquisition identification number, the expiration date of the contract
or the task (whichever is sooner), and all required signatures. This
paperwork shall be submitted to the Security and Investigations
Division, AMC-700 in the Headquarters Building (HQ), Room 321, by the
contractor, in a sealed envelope, either hand-carried by the contractor
or sent via U.S. Mail to: FAA, Security and Investigations Division,
AMC-700, P.O. Box 25082, Oklahoma City, OK 73125. The contractor will be
notified when the DOT 168l has been approved and is ready for processing
by the Aeronautical Center guards in the Headquarters Building, Room
151. Arrangements for processing the Identification Cards, including
photographs and lamination, can be made by contacting the Aeronautical
Center security guards at 405-954-4620.

\(3\) The contractor is responsible for each PIV card issued for their

#### H.11 REIMBURSEMENT OF TRAVEL COSTS (DECEMBER 2003) CLA.4531

This clause governs the payment of travel expenses as a direct contract
cost, as differentiated from indirect travel cost or Company travel that
would be governed by the Contractor's internal travel policies. The
Government will reimburse the contractor for travel costs, as specified
in this clause, that are required, approved and incurred by contractor
personnel traveling outside the commuting range of their assigned work
location in performance of this contract.

\(a\) Travel under this clause must be funded under the contract/order
and then authorized in advance by the Contracting Officer (CO) or
Contracting Officer's Technical Representative (COTR) before travel
costs are incurred and charged as a direct contract cost. All travel
related expenses claimed for reimbursement shall be separately
identified by individual, by trip. The contractor shall submit proof of
its actual purchase price for commercial transportation, lodging and any
other items for reimbursement at actual cost. Unless directed otherwise,
in writing, by the CO or COTR, subsistence cost (meals and incidental
expenses) shall be billed and paid on the per diem basis specified
below.

\(b\) Government reimbursements for claimed travel costs, including per
diem, will be made in accordance with the FAA's Travel Policy (FAATP),
as amended, issued by the Federal Aviation Administration and maintained
on its website, <http://www2.faa.gov/aba/html_tp/index.html>.
Reimbursement for common-carrier fares shall be limited to actual cost
of the lowest economy, standard, coach, or equivalent fare offered
during normal business hours, plus customary agent fees. Any other
common-carrier charges, reimbursement for private or corporate air
travel or use of rental cars must be included in an advanced written
authorization to travel. Expenses for transportation by private or
corporate vehicles shall be reimbursed on a mileage basis at the FAATP
transportation rates in effect at the time the travel is accomplished,
plus necessary tolls, or at the total constructive cost of common
carrier transportation, whichever is most advantageous to the
Government.

\(c\) The contractor shall not be entitled to reimbursement under this
clause for any travel costs associated with contractor-directed
personnel changes, personnel/labor disputes, for employee convenience,
or for travel to and from the normal assigned work locations. All claims
for reimbursement are subject to the cost principles contained in the
FAA's Acquisition Management System.

\(d\) Travel costs for transportation, lodging, per diem or subsistence
and other related expenses shall not be burdened by any profit or
indirect costs, with the exception of a nominal handling charge. Nominal
handling charges may be charged for travel under this clause to the
extent specified in the contract/order price schedule or payment clause
elsewhere in this contract.

**H.12** **AGREEMENT TO PARTICIPATE IN ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE CLA.4540**

**RESOLUTION (APRIL 1998)**

\(a\) The Federal Aviation Administration encourages direct
communications and negotiations between the contractor and the
contracting officer in an attempt to resolve contract disputes. In those
situations where the parties are not able to achieve resolution at the
contracting officer level, the agency favors the use of alternative
dispute resolution (ADR) techniques to resolve disputes.

\(b\) The parties hereby agree that, prior to referring a contract
dispute to the Office of Disputes Resolution as described in contract
clause 3.9.1-1 "Contract Disputes", the parties will discuss whether
they are willing to utilize ADR techniques such as mediation or
nonbinding evaluation of the dispute by a neutral party. Upon receipt of
a contract dispute from the contractor, the contracting officer will
explore with the contractor whether the use of ADR techniques would be
appropriate to resolve the dispute. Both parties must agree that the use
of such techniques is appropriate, and agree to fairly share the
associated expenses. If the parties do not mutually agree to utilize ADR
to resolve the dispute, the dispute will be processed in accordance with
the procedures set forth in clause 3.9.1-1.

# H.13 SECURITY FORMS SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS (NOVEMBER 2003) CLA.4545

\(a\) The contractor shall submit complete (meaning every blank filled
in), accurate (to the best of their knowledge) and timely (within the
time frame specified in the Clause entitled [Security -- Unescorted
Access]{.underline}) security forms with the required transmittal letter
to the appropriate Servicing Security Element (SSE). A copy of the
transmittal letter shall also be provided to the Contracting Officer.

\(b\) The applicable security forms are located on the Internet at
<http://amq.mmac.faa.gov/security.asp> except for the Fingerprint Charts
(Form No. FD-258) and ID Card Applications (DOT Form 1681) which will be
provided by the COTR after contract award.

\(c\) Any discrepancies/incomplete forms shall be returned to the
contractor\'s Project Manager or in lieu thereof, to the Government\'s
Contracting Officer\'s Technical Representative (COTR) for return to the
contractor.

\(d\) Failure on the contractor\'s part to submit complete, accurate and
timely information (in whole or in part) may be grounds for termination
under the Default clause of this contract.

H.14 Qualifications of Employees (DECEMBER 2002) CLA.4552

The Contracting Officer will provide notice to the Contractor when any
contractor employee is found to be unsuitable or otherwise
objectionable, or whose conduct appears contrary to the public interest,
or inconsistent with the best interest of national security. The
Contractor shall take appropriate action, including the removal of such
employees from working on this FAA contract, at their own expense. The
contractor agrees to insert terms that conform substantially to the
language of this clause in all subcontracts under this contract.

the changes were directed under the Changes clause of this contract.

\(l\) The contractor agrees to insert terms that conform substantially
to the language of this clause, including this paragraph (l) but

should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of
this solicitation.

\(f\) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of
the data within the CCR database, and for any liability resulting from
the Government\'s reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain
registered in the CCR database after the initial registration, the
Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the
date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in
the CCR database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete.
Updating information in the CCR does not alter the terms and conditions
of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed
contractual document.

\(g\) (1)(i) If a Contractor has legally changed its business name,
\"doing business as\" name, or division name (whichever is shown on the
contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the
contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding
novation and change-of-name agreements in AMS Procurement Guidance
T3.10.1.A-8, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting
Officer a minimum of one business day\'s written notification of its
intention to:

> \(A\) change the name in the CCR database;
>
> \(B\) comply with the requirements of T3.10.1.A-8; and
>
> \(C\) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the
> responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide the

\(ii\) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of
paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at
paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly
executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the CCR information that
shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the
contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the
meaning of the \"Suspension of Payment\" paragraph of the electronic
funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

\(2\) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT
payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the CCR record to
reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees
shall be separately registered in the CCR database. Information provided
to the Contractor\'s CCR record that indicates payments, including those
made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be
considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the
\"Suspension of payment\" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

**3.3.1-34 Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer---Central Contractor**

**Registration (Oct 2005)**

\(a\) Method of payment.

> \(1\) All payments by the Government under this contract shall be made
> by electronic

funds transfer (EFT), except as provided in paragraph (a)(2) of this
clause. As used in this clause, the term \"EFT\" refers to the funds
transfer and may also include the payment information transfer.

> \(2\) In the event the Government is unable to release one or more
> payments by EFT, the

Contractor agrees to either---

> \(i\) Accept payment by check or some other mutually agreeable method
> of

payment; or

> \(ii\) Request the Government to extend the payment due date until
> such time as

the Government can make payment by EFT (but see paragraph (d) of this
clause).

\(b\) Contractor\'s EFT information. The Government shall make payment
to the Contractor using the EFT information contained in the Central
Contractor Registration (CCR) database. In the event that the EFT
information changes, the Contractor shall be responsible for providing
the updated information to the CCR database.

\(c\) Mechanisms for EFT payment. The Government may make payment by EFT
through either the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network, subject to
the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association, or the
Fedwire Transfer System. The rules governing Federal payments through
the ACH are contained in 31 CFR Part 210.

\(d\) Suspension of payment. If the Contractor\'s EFT information in the
CCR database is incorrect, then the Government need not make payment to
the Contractor under this contract until correct EFT information is
entered into the CCR database; and any invoice or contract financing
request shall be deemed not to be a proper invoice for the purpose of
prompt payment under this contract. The prompt payment terms of the
contract regarding notice of an improper invoice and delays in accrual
of interest penalties apply.

\(e\) Liability for uncompleted or erroneous transfers.

> \(1\) If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the
> Government used the

Contractor\'s EFT information incorrectly, the Government remains
responsible for---

> \(i\) Making a correct payment;
>
> \(ii\) Paying any prompt payment penalty due; and
>
> \(iii\) Recovering any erroneously directed funds.
>
> \(2\) If an uncompleted or erroneous transfer occurs because the
> Contractor\'s EFT

information was incorrect, or was revised within 30 days of Government
release of the EFT payment transaction instruction to the Federal
Reserve System, and---

> \(i\) If the funds are no longer under the control of the payment
> office, the

Government is deemed to have made payment and the Contractor is
responsible for recovery of any erroneously directed funds; or

> \(ii\) If the funds remain under the control of the payment office,
> the Government

shall not make payment, and the provisions of paragraph (d) of this
clause shall apply.

\(f\) EFT and prompt payment. A payment shall be deemed to have been
made in a timely manner in accordance with the prompt payment terms of
this contract if, in the EFT payment transaction instruction released to
the Federal Reserve System, the date specified for settlement of the
payment is on or before the prompt payment due date, provided the
specified payment date is a valid date under the rules of the Federal
Reserve System.

\(g\) EFT and assignment of claims. If the Contractor assigns the
proceeds of this contract as provided for in the assignment of claims
terms of this contract, the Contractor shall require as a condition of
any such assignment, that the assignee shall register separately in the
CCR database and shall be paid by EFT in accordance with the terms of
this clause. Notwithstanding any other requirement of this contract,
payment to an ultimate recipient other than the Contractor, or a
financial institution properly recognized under an assignment of claims,
is not permitted. In all respects, the requirements of this clause shall
apply to the assignee as if it were the Contractor. EFT information that
shows the ultimate recipient of the transfer to be other than the
Contractor, in the absence of a proper assignment of claims acceptable
to the Government, is incorrect EFT information within the meaning of
paragraph (d) of this clause.

\(h\) Liability for change of EFT information by financial agent. The
Government is not liable for errors resulting from changes to EFT
information made by the Contractor\'s financial agent.

\(i\) Payment information. The payment or disbursing office shall
forward to the Contractor available payment information that is suitable
for transmission as of the date of release of the EFT instruction to the
Federal Reserve System. The Government may request the Contractor to
designate a desired format and method(s) for delivery of payment
information from a list of formats and methods the payment office is
capable of executing. However, the Government does not guarantee that
any particular format or method of delivery is available at any
particular payment office and retains the latitude to use the format and
delivery method most convenient to the Government. If the Government
makes payment by check in accordance with paragraph (a) of this clause,
the Government shall mail the payment information to the remittance
address contained in the CCR database.

**3.9.1-2** **PROTEST AFTER AWARD (AUGUST 1997)**

\(a\) Upon receipt of a notice that a protest has been filed with the
FAA Office of Dispute Resolution, or a determination that a protest is
likely, the Administrator or his designee may instruct the Contracting
Officer) to direct the Contractor to stop performance of the work called
for by this contract. The order to the Contractor shall be in writing,
and shall be specifically identified as a stop-work order issued under
this clause. Upon receipt of the order, the Contractor shall immediately
comply with its terms and take all reasonable steps to minimize the
incurrence of costs allocable to the work covered by the order during
the period of work stoppage. Upon receipt of the final decision or other
resolution of the protest, the Contracting Officer shall either\--

\(1\) Cancel the stop-work order; or

the order as provided in the \"Termination\" clause of this contract.

\(b\) If a stop-work order issued under this clause is canceled either
before or after the final resolution of the protest, the Contractor
shall resume work. The Contracting Officer shall make for other than
cost-reimbursement contracts, an equitable adjustment in the delivery
schedule or contract price, or both; and for cost-reimbursement
contracts, an equitable adjustment in the delivery schedule, the
estimated cost, the fee, or a combination thereof, and in any other
terms of the contract that may be affected; and the contract shall be
modified, in writing, accordingly, if\--

\(1\) The stop-work order results in an increase in the time required
for, or in the Contractor\'s cost properly allocable to, the performance
of any part of this contract; and

\(2\) The Contractor asserts its right to an adjustment within 30 days
after the end of the period of work stoppage; provided, that if the
Contracting Officer decides the facts justify the action, the
Contracting Officer may receive and act upon a proposal submitted at any
time before final payment under this contract.

\(c\) If a stop-work order is not canceled and the work covered by the
order is terminated for the convenience of the Government, the
Contracting Officer shall allow reasonable costs resulting from the
stop-work order in arriving at the termination settlement.

\(d\) If a stop-work order is not canceled and the work covered by the
order is terminated for default, the Contracting Officer shall allow, by
equitable adjustment or otherwise, reasonable costs resulting from the
stop-work order.

\(e\) The Government\'s rights to terminate this contract at any time
are not affected by action taken under this clause.
