  1. Need assistance as the FAR does not clearly discuss Period of Performance. We have an IDIQ contract with a government entity, upon which task orders are awarded. The contract clearly states a period of performance, or delivery F.O.B. Within the text of the award, this specific government entity has written differing dates, which has caused confusion recently. For example: "Period of performance - 1/1/19 to 5/31/19. POP Task - 1/1/19 - 4/30/19 POP Order - 1/1/19 - 5/31/19. To allow 30 days for closeouts and final invoicing" One would usually read this as we must be complete the work by 5/31/19. Some officers from this entity will push for the work to be done by 4/30/19, and then 30 days for closeouts. However, multiple contracting officials with this agency have stated, verbally, that "there is only one period of performance on the contract, the other dates don't really mean anything". ??? It is unsure why they continue to put text within the awarding document like this. I cannot define what "Task" and "Order" mean individually as pertains to a period of performance. Additionally, can there be (2) periods of performance for (1) task order award? For instance, base contract was awarded 1/1/2019, with expiration of 5/31/19. On 5/20/19 they awarded the option 1 from the bid, thus extending the POP until 7/31/19. However, the entity still requires the base work to be done by 5/31/19, and option 1 work by 7/31/19. I was under the assumption the option 1 becomes part of the contract, thus the entirety of the work (whether base or option) should be done by 7/31/19 thank you for your help!
