In response to a possible Federal Government shutdown, the ASBCA will furlough all non-essential personnel. However, we will be open to receive new appeal filings via email and we expect parties to continue to submit timely notices of appeal, regardless of the shutdown. Please continue to send all notices of appeal to asbca.recorder@mail.mil.
If you are a party in an appeal
that has already been submitted to the Board with a filing due
during a government shutdown, please be advised that these due
dates will be suspended for the duration of a government
shutdown. All filing due dates will be updated once the government returns to an open status.
The best way to
communicate with the Board is by email at
asbca.recorder@mail.mil or by telephone at 703-681-8502.
Except for Rule 4 file documents, documents that are 10
Megabytes or less in size should be emailed to the Board's
Recorder at
asbca.recorder@mail.mil. Please review the document filing
guidance at 'Rules and Guidance' for more information.
Welcome to the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals (ASBCA) website. The ASBCA is a neutral, independent forum which has been in existence for over fifty years. Its primary function is to hear and decide post-award contract disputes between government contractors and the Department of Defense; the National Aeronautics and Space Administration; the Central Intelligence Agency, as appropriate; and other entities with whom the ASBCA has entered into agreements to provide services. The ASBCA functions under the Contract Disputes Act (41 U.S.C. §§ 7101-7109), its Charter, or other remedy-granting provisions. The majority of matters on the ASBCA's docket involve appeals by contractors from government contracting officers' final decisions or failures to issue decisions.
