The contractor filed, under Rule l(a)(5), a request for an order directing the

on the contractor's claim by 31 May 2017. 
This order completes all necessary action by the Board. If the contracting 
officer fails to comply with this order, such failure will be deemed a decision by the 
contracting officer denying the claim, and the contractor may appeal to this Board or 
sue in the United States Court of Federal Claims pursuant to the Contract Disputes 
Act, 41 U.S.C. §§ 7103(f)(5) and 7104.
