data are accurate and complete; and (3) the amount requested accurately 
reflects the contract adjustment for which the contractor believes the 
Government is liable. Contractors may appeal the contracting officer's 
decision by submitting written appeals to the appropriate officials.
    If the contractor refuses the Government's offer to use alternative 
dispute resolution (ADR), the contractor must inform the contracting
