Contracts Disputes Act

The Contracts Disputes Act is a law that provides a clear process for resolving disagreements between the government and contractors over contract claims. It allows contractors to submit claims for additional compensation or changes and sets procedures for the government to review and decide on those claims. If disputes can't be settled informally, the act allows for resolution through the Court of Federal Claims. Its goal is to ensure fair handling of disputes related to government contracts, promoting transparency and accountability while providing a structured process for resolving conflicts efficiently.
