TITLE VIII--ACQUISITION POLICY, ACQUISITION MANAGEMENT, AND RELATED MATTERS Subtitle B — Amendments to General Contracting Authorities, Procedures, and Limitations |
|
P. L. 115- |
|
SEC. 821. AMENDMENT RELATING TO
APPLICABILITY OF INFLATION ADJUSTMENTS. Section 1908(d) of title 41, United States Code, is amended by inserting before the period at the end the following: “and shall apply, in the case of the procurement of property or services by contract, to a contract, and any subcontract at any tier under the contract, in effect on that date without regard to the date of award of the contract or subcontract.”. |
Amendment relating to applicability of
inflation adjustments (sec. 821)
The House bill contained a provision (sec. 860) that would modify section 1908(d) of title 41, United States Code, to ensure 5-year inflation adjustments apply consistently to all subcontractors. Currently, inflation adjustments impact only prime contractors, so that subcontractors must maintain a compliance requirement for some contracts but not others. The Senate amendment contained no similar provision. The Senate recedes with a technical amendment. |
