                     ORDER PURSUANT TO RULE 1(a)(5)
            DIRECTING CONTRACTING OFFICER TO ISSUE DECISION

       The contractor filed, under Rule 1(a)(5), a request for an order directing the
contracting officer to render a decision on a July 26, 2019 certified claim for
$281,461.35. The government has advised that a final decision on the claim will be
issued by May 7, 2020. We deem this date reasonable.

       Accordingly, the Board hereby directs the contracting officer to issue a decision
on the contractor’s claim by May 7, 2020.

        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), or 7104, as appropriate.

       Dated: April 21, 2020
