SUBJECT: Tel Com withi oncerning Contract
r learning about a potential 100% overrun onL_Jcontra
a long discussion was held within the staff of all the
tasks NPIC currently sponsors. As a result of this meeting, I called
ffil
the contract administrator, to find out what obligations 25X1
we have, to pay an unauthroized overrun. I also asked what the costs
would be to terminate tasks 3 and 4.
has recently taken over this contract from IJ 25X1
and he was not familiar with it. He said he would read the 25X1
contract over carefully and determine answers to my questions. Off-hand
he felt we should not have to pay the overrun, but he added, "These
fellows usually find a way of sneaking around it." He said task 3, a
CPFF contract, could probably be terminated at any time, but that
task 1, a fixed price contract, would most likely have to be continued.
Russ will contact me after he has studied the contract.
