A PO can accept or reject the Contract Holders modification requests until the CO signature has been added for the following:

  • Name Change*
  • Address Change**
  • Novation*
  • Re-Rep Business Size*


*A bilateral contract modification that either a Contract Holder or PO can initiate. These are modifications proposed by industry or the government, which do materially affect the terms of the contract.


**Unilateral contract modifications are Dormancy, Address Change, or Option Exercise. These are modifications proposed by industry or the government, which do not materially affect the terms of the contract or are specifically authorized by the contract.


Note

  1. The template populated within a given contract modification can be edited before approval of the contract modification.
  2. Symphony will generate the complete modification documentation and enforce changes.
