Partially SustainedQuantum / Damages

U.S. Bank National Association appealed a denial of its claim for approximately $1.5 million in unreimbursed payments for transportation services under a contract with the Department of Defense. The Board granted U.S. Bank's motion for summary judgment in part, establishing entitlement to the claimed amount but not the specific amount.

Material Facts

U.S. Bank claimed approximately $1.5 million in unreimbursed third-party payments for transportation services.
The discrepancy in the DLA Susquehanna account originated prior to 2003, according to U.S. Bank.
The contract at issue took effect in January 2015, but U.S. Bank had been performing similar services under predecessor contracts since 1998.
The government contended that the discrepancy dated back to 2003 and was not related to the current contract.
The Board found that material facts were in dispute regarding the application of payments and the origin of the discrepancy.
