Partially SustainedQuantum / DamagesContract Changes / Constructive Changes

URS Federal Support Services, Inc. moved for entry of judgment following an earlier decision sustaining its appeal in part and remanding the matter for negotiation of the price of a contract change. The Board granted the motion in a reduced amount after holding that URS failed to provide actual cost data and therefore failed to establish any reduction or elimination of the Air Force's offset.

Material Facts

The Air Force contract covered aircraft maintenance services at various locations in the United States.
The contract specified the number and skills of personnel required to perform the maintenance.
The Air Force moved five full-time-equivalent aircraft mechanics from Ft. Knox, Kentucky, and Kingsville, Texas, to Ft. Hood, Texas.
The personnel transfer increased costs at Ft. Hood and decreased costs at Ft. Knox and Kingsville.
The Air Force used URS's pricing sheets to estimate the savings resulting from the personnel reductions.
URS did not produce or explain its actual costs of performance at Ft. Knox and Kingsville.
Neither party presented the details of its calculations concerning the value of the Ft. Hood change.
