ASBCA Clarifies SOL on Interest Claims Under the Prompt Payment Act
Client Alert | 1 min read | 05.23.16
In Public Warehousing Co. (May 2, 2016), the Board held the CDA statute of limitations on a contractor’s claim for interest penalties under the Prompt Payment Act does not accrue until the government makes the underlying payment. Rejecting the government’s argument that the interest claim should accrue as soon as government fails to make the underlying payment, the Board held that, under the PPA, “the events that fix the government's alleged liability and allow a claim for interest penalties to be asserted do not occur until the government pays the underlying invoice without paying the interest penalty due.”

The proposed clause would impose substantial new requirements related to AI sources, intellectual property rights, data use, change management, and performance standards. The Clause would also take precedence over any other contract terms (including commercial licensing terms) related to AI, including a Seller’s terms of sale and service to which the Government had previously agreed. GSA requests comments by March 20, 2026.
