The case caption as the decision prints it. Every word is kept; the rule the Board draws around it is not text, so it is not repeated here.

DANIELS, Board Judge (Chairman).

Order

The Department of the Interior’s National Park Service awarded to Legacy Electric Automation & Communications, Inc. (Legacy) a contract in the amount of $19,993.36 to perform electrical work at the Cedar Pass Lodge of the Badlands National Park in South Dakota. After award, Legacy asserted that the work to be performed was considerably in excess of the work described in the agency’s solicitation and claimed that it would need an additional $69,416.04 to perform all the work. The contracting officer denied the claim, maintaining that all the work – including what Legacy contended was additional – was described in an attachment to the solicitation. Legacy appealed the contracting officer’s decision.

The parties have now resolved their dispute, settling the case by agreeing that the contract will be terminated for the convenience of the Government, with no costs payable by either party. The parties have asked that the case be dismissed with prejudice.

Accordingly, the case is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Legacy Electric Automation & Communications, INC., CBCA 3223. Nothing is summarized or reworded, and the sections run in the order the Board wrote them. What the page shows and the text does not repeat is the pagination furniture: the page numbers and the rules the Board draws around its caption and under its signatures. The signatures are set back into the columns the Board prints them in, each judge under the name he or she signed, and the typed copy of that name the page carries beneath each signature is not repeated.
