Equitable Adjustment/Health & Welfare Benefits


Recommended Posts

Someone may already have addressed this question, so please forgive me if I am addressing it again.

I am administering a 5-year (FFP) contract (AbilityOne award) where the SCA applies. The contractor submitted a request for equitable adjustment based on a revised wage determination increase in health and welfare benefits. I understand that the contractor is free to grant wage or benefit increases as he sees fit, but there are strict limits as to what portion of those increases can be passed through the government in the form of a price adjustment.

My question is does this increase in health & welfare constitute an equitable adjustment?

I would appreciate any recommendations you can provide.

FAR clause 52.222-41 should be in the contract if SCA work is being performed. It includes the adjustment of fringe benefits such as H&W. Read it thoughly from start to finish and its Part 22 prescription.

It allows a company to request an adjustment, it does not constitute one.
