Before Board Judges LESTER, RUSSELL, and GOODMAN.

LESTER, Board Judge.

On May 19, 2026, appellant, Northland|Cianbro, a Joint Venture (Northland), and respondent, the General Services Administration (GSA), filed a joint motion requesting the entry of a stipulated judgment in Northland’s favor in the amount of $882,356, inclusive of all interest under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA), 41 U.S.C. § 7109 (2024), that has accrued prior to the date of the Board’s entry of judgment, with payment to be made through the permanent indefinite judgment fund, 31 U.S.C. § 1304. As clarified by the parties’ filing with the Board on June 3, 2026, CDA interest will again begin to accrue on the judgment amount on the date that the Board enters this judgment, and CDA interest will continue to accrue until Northland receives payment of the judgment amount, with accrued interest. The parties agree that, upon entry of the requested final stipulated judgment and in accordance with the parties’ settlement agreement, all disputes, claims, counterclaims, and issues that were presented in CBCA 8097, 8139, 8154, 8272, 8273, 8274, 8275 and 8276 will be fully and finally settled and resolved. The parties have further stipulated that they will not seek reconsideration of, seek relief from, or appeal the Board’s entry of judgment awarding the stipulated amount to Northland. See Rule 25(b) (48 CFR 6101.25(b) (published in eCFR)).

Decision

These consolidated appeals are GRANTED IN PART. GSA shall pay $882,356 to Northland in full settlement (inclusive of any CDA interest accrued to date) of CBCA 8097, 8139, 8154, 8272, 8273, 8274, 8275, and 8276, with additional CDA interest running from the date of this judgment until the payment date. Northland waives any right that it may have to recover attorney fees, costs, and expenses that it may have incurred in conjunction with these appeals and, except to the extent identified above, interest on its claims.

This is a verbatim capture of the text layer of the Board's own document in Northland|Cianbro, a Joint Venture, CBCA 8097, 8139, 8154, 8272, 8273, 8274, 8275, 8276. 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.
