242.7503 Procedures.
- (a) Upon receipt of an audit report identifying significant accounting system or related internal control deficiencies, the ACO will—
- (1) Provide a copy of the report to the contractor and allow 30 days, or a reasonable extension, for the contractor to respond;
- (2) If the contractor agrees with the report, the contractor has 60 days from the date of initial notification to correct any identified deficiencies or submit a corrective action plan showing milestones and actions to eliminate the deficiencies.
- (3) If the contractor disagrees, the contractor should provide rationale in its written response.
- (4) The ACO will consider whether it is appropriate to suspend a percentage of progress payments or reimbursement of costs proportionate to the estimated cost risk to the Government, considering audit reports or other relevant input, until the contractor submits a corrective action plan acceptable to the ACO and corrects the deficiencies. (See FAR 32.503-6(a) and (b) and FAR 42.302(a)(7)).
