DELIVERY ORDER MODIFICATIONS

• No-Cost Modifications - No-Cost modifications (administrative modifications) may be processed directly by the customer without any participation by NITAAC. NITAAC will not charge a processing fee for these modifications. However, a copy of the modification must be sent by the AMO to the Contract Officer at the address provided in the Foreword.
  
  
• Addition of Funds - Two copies of Lease Delivery Order Modifications that involve adding additional funds that were contemplated and described in the original Delivery order (e.g., incremental funding actions, exercise of options), must be sent by the AMO to the Lease CO.. No further documentation is required; however, for external customers, the NIH Processing Fee (of the amount obligated on the Lease Delivery Order Modification) must be added as a separate lien item on the modification (i.e., the funding document/order).
  

• The work relates in some way to the original statement of work, e.g., additional time, additional related task, etc.
  
  
• The Lease Contracting Officer will review the documentation, request revisions, if appropriate, and issue a NITAAC Approval Letter with the NITAAC Delivery Order Authorization Number (which will include a suffix to indicate the modification number) to the customer and the prime contractor. After the prime contractor receives the funding document, the prime contractor may proceed with the additional work. The customer documenting the best value decision.
  
  
• If the additional work/additional time requires additional funding, the Order will be subject to the NIH processing fee (applicable to external customers).
