Support after the award
Winning the contract is the start of the work. Deliverables, notices, approvals, changes, and performance records all need attention while your team is busy delivering the solution.
PCS helps government contractors organize contract administration and address performance issues before they become harder to explain or resolve. When additional work, delay, or disagreement affects the contract, we help turn the project history into a clear, supported request.
Contract Administration & Performance Coordination
We work with your team to translate the contract’s requirements into a practical view of what must be delivered, when action is needed, and who owns each step.
- Review deliverables, milestones, reporting requirements, and notice provisions.
- Organize responsibility lists, action trackers, and supporting contract records.
- Track government questions, approvals, and open performance issues.
- Help prepare correspondence and coordinate the information needed for a response.
Your operational team remains responsible for performance and business decisions. PCS provides support to keep the administrative work organized and connect the documentation to the contract requirements.
Changes, Delays & Emerging Issues
A changed requirement, late approval, access constraint, or unexpected site condition can affect both cost and schedule. The response should begin with understanding the facts and preserving the records that explain the impact.
- Review the relevant contract provisions and correspondence.
- Develop a chronology of instructions, events, and decisions.
- Work with project personnel to describe the effect on scope, staffing, cost, or schedule.
- Help identify required notices and prepare clear communications.
- Organize questions and supporting information for discussions with the government.
Good documentation connects what changed to what your team had to do differently. We help make that connection explicit rather than leaving it buried in emails, meeting notes, or project files.
Requests for Equitable Adjustment
A request for equitable adjustment (REA) needs to do more than state that the job cost more than expected. It should explain the basis for the request, the events that caused the impact, and the support for the adjustment being sought.
PCS works with your technical, operational, schedule, and pricing contributors to develop a coherent submission. We help assemble the narrative, contract history, notices, correspondence, cost inputs, and supporting exhibits, then coordinate review so the request reflects the facts and the company’s position.
We can also help prepare responses to government questions and organize follow-up materials as the request is considered.
Contract Claims & Dispute Support
When a performance disagreement requires a more formal response, PCS helps contractors develop organized, well-supported claim materials and navigate the required process.
Our work can include reviewing the issue and relevant records, developing the factual narrative, assembling evidence, coordinating cost and schedule inputs, and drafting required notices and claim submissions. We help identify missing support and keep the company’s communications consistent.
The approach depends on the contract, the issue, and the relief being requested. We scope the work around the complexity and value of the matter and coordinate with your project team and legal counsel where appropriate.
Documentation That Supports Your Position
The strongest time to organize the record is while the work is happening. A clear file helps your company explain performance, respond to questions, and evaluate a potential request without reconstructing months of activity from memory.
- Contract documents, modifications, and written directions.
- Notices, requests for clarification, and approval records.
- Meeting notes and the chronology of important events.
- Schedule information, staffing records, and cost support.
- Evidence linking the issue to the impact and requested adjustment.
We draw on the people who know the work and help organize their knowledge into a record that others can follow.
Support Sized to the Work
You may need help setting up a contract tracker, drafting one important notice, developing an REA, or coordinating a more complex claim. PCS can provide a defined assignment or support your team across an agreed set of contract-management tasks.
Our experience includes issues involving construction, architecture, facilities services, and information technology. We rely on your in-house expertise and focus outside effort where it adds the most value.
