What happens if ....

A contract's period of performance is over, and

Invoices are submitted and paid, and

a de-obligation mod is put into place and release of claims signed reflecting numbers on the de-obligation mod, and

then it is discovered that the de-obligation mod was too aggressive in that it de-obligated money already invoiced and paid?

 

[ji20874]

do a correcting mod

or rescind the de-obligation modification and issuing a superseding correct modification

[Retreadfed]

In addition to what ji said, do not ask the contractor to give the money back.

Interesting situation in context of the "systems" now used.  Having not used a "system" for quite a while and understanding that sometimes agency processes are demanded but I really wonder if a mod is required and instead just documenting the contract file and updating the "system" is an option.   After all everything with the contractor has been accomplished you are just doing what you need to do to clean your own house.   Said with the personal ideal that a SF-30 is intended as a communication tool with the contractor not a "systems" tool!
