Results

The contract period for the project was for 2 months starting on 10 AUG 2010 and was intended to end 15 NOV 2010. The contract was signed and obligated, and payments were made. The total contract award was for 140,000.00USD. TF REPEL paid out 139,900.00USD. TF THUNDER with the support of USACE engineers did not determine the amount of work completed on the school to be concurrent with the amount paid out. Consequently, there is only 100.00USD remaining on the contract but more than 100.00USD worth of work remaining on the project. Therefore, not enough funds remaining to complete the project to a 100% standard.
