ORDER PURSUANT TO RULE l(a)(5)
DIRECTING CONTRACTING OFFICER TO ISSUE DECISION
The contractor filed, under Rule l(a)(5), a request for an order directing the
contracting officer to render a decision on a 24 August 2016 claim for $953,455 by no
later than 28 October 2016. The government has advised that a final decision on the
claim will be issued by 10 November 2016. We deem this date reasonable.
Accordingly, the Board hereby directs the contracting officer to issue a decision
on the contractor's claim by 10 November 2016.
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(t)(5) and 7104.
