Multiple Certificates Required?

More facts please. Is this one action or two? Toward substantiating your answer, do you have a date of agreement on price that both parties have honored and will continue to honor for the first action?

EDIT: The possibility I’m trying to eliminate is that you have only one contract action and the sub has not, in fact, provided accurate, current and complete cost or pricing data to support the entire action.

Assuming that you are a prime to the sub, why did you obtain the first certificate and what was the reason for the increase ?

rdtmk5, you may want to keep in mind the following. The Price Reduction for Defective Certified Cost or Pricing Data—Modifications clause at FAR 52.215-11 provides, at para ( b )(3), “If any price…negotiated in connection with any modification under this clause…was increased by any significant amount because…any of these parties [the prime or a subcontractor] furnished data of any description that were not accurate, the price or cost shall be reduced accordingly….” Para ( b ) applies when the modification of the PRIME contract exceeds the TINA threshold. Under para (d)(1)(iv) of the clause the Contractor agrees not to raise as a defense that the subcontractor did not submit a Certificate of Current Cost or Pricing Data. The clause at 52.215-10 contains the same language.
