Bullock Construction Inc.

Material Facts

• Bullock Construction Inc. was awarded Contract No. FQ17095 by WMATA for System Wide Track Rehabilitation Services.
• The contract was a firm fixed unit price, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a guaranteed minimum of $100,000 per year.
• Bullock claimed $1,974,789.50 for lost time wages and $3,072,864 for a bid item pay discrepancy related to Grout Pad Renewal.
• WMATA denied both claims, asserting that the lost time claim was a delay claim barred by the contract and that Bullock did not perform Grout Pad Renewal work as defined in the contract.
• The Board found that WMATA had notice of the lost time issue and that Bullock's assumption of 8 hours of track time per shift was unreasonable.
