here_2_help Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I'm researching a payment issue and came across a series of DFARS clauses under the general heading "payment instructions." These clauses all start with 252.204 and range from 252.204-0001 through 252.204-0011. I cannot find these clauses in my various searches of the DFARS. All the clauses I see start with 252.204-7xxx. Yet, at least one of these secret clauses is incorporated into my contract, so apparently my company is required to comply with the associated payment instructions. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious. Can somebody please tell me why I can't find these contract clauses in the DFARS list of contract clauses, and what the prescription is for their use?

Don Mansfield Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 They aren't clauses, they are instructions to the payment office. You have to go back to the DFARS PGI 204.7108(d) circa 2016 to find them. DoD doesn't use them anymore. https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/pgi/pgi_htm/r20161222/PGI204_71.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
here_2_help Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Thanks Don. Much appreciated. What are they doing in my contract? (Rhetorical question.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
