Use this subtask to enter information specific to government contracts. For commercial contracts, you should enter at least the Incurred Cost Submission Code, if you require this code for all projects, per your selection in the Project Settings screen (Administration\Configure\Projects). Certain processes within the system rely heavily upon the data entered here, and completion of this screen is required for all government contracts.
Since most government contracts are consistent in cascading key provisions throughout an entire project, regardless of the project level, the Allow Edit checkbox is applicable to almost every field on this screen. It is likely that no edit will be allowed for any project entered except for the top-level project. This means that you will probably enter data on this screen only once, at the top-level of a given project. For all lower project levels, you need only to save that same data (rather than re-enter it.) When you enter a record in this screen, the information is saved to all lower levels of the project tree.
The Govt Contract subtask is made up of two tabs and one subtask. The project number and description displays at the top of the screen, regardless of which tab is being used. The Govt Contract subtask and tabs should be used as follows:
The Contract Details tab contains information regarding the contract officer, administrative officer, procurement officer, contractor representative and title, funding source, DPAS purchasing rating, agency ID, incurred cost submission code, CAS (Cost Accounting Standards) covered, contract year, and wage determination information.
The Statement of Work tab contains information regarding the work that will be performed on the contract. This information can be printed on Government Form 1034.
The Telephone Numbers subtask contains contact names, titles, and telephone numbers for people involved in the contract.
Use this screen as part of the project initialization, particularly if the project is the result of a government contract. You can change the information in this screen at any time.
Changes to this screen update the PROJ_GOVT_CONTR (Project Government Contractor) table.
