Goods and Services. (1)

An extension of time may be granted only by the ACCO of the agency that awarded the contract upon written application by the contractor. An extension pursuant to this section may be granted only for performance based contracts (such as for the delivery of goods or deliverable based services) and this section does not apply to extensions pursuant to Section 4-02 or renewals pursuant to Section 4-04 of these Rules. For contracts consisting of separate deliverable based elements (such as task or purchase orders pursuant to a requirements contract), an extension pursuant to this section may be made only for such deliverable based elements (such as task or purchase orders) and not the underlying contract. (2) The ruling of the ACCO is final and binding as to the allowance of an extension, and the number of days allowed. (3) The application for extension must detail each cause for delay, the date it occurred, and the resulting total delay in days attributed to such cause. For construction related services, the application must detail the cause for the delay only if it is within the knowledge of the applicant. (4) For construction related services, if the extension is based on a delay in construction, the extension must not exceed the extension granted for the construction contract, unless the application sets forth an additional basis for the extension. (c) Construction. An extension of time may be granted only by the ACCO of the agency that awarded the contract or by the Board of Time Extension (as set forth below), upon written application by the contractor. (1) Application for Extension of Time.

(i) Before a contractor’s time extension request may be approved, the contractor must submit a written application identifying, at a minimum: (A) the contractor, the contract registration number, and project description; (B) liquidated damage assessment rate, as specified in the contract; (C) original bid amount; (D) the original contract start date and completion date; (E) any previous time extensions granted (number and duration); and (F) the extension of time requested.
