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 by June 22, 2022, on a March 22, 2022 certified
claim for $11,024,797. The government has advised that a final decision on the claim
will be issued by July 21, 2022. We deem this date reasonable.
Accordingly, the Board hereby directs the contracting officer to issue a decision
on the contractor’s claim by July 21, 2022.
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.
