    Original post

    I have a FFP severable contract which now the government would like to use 52.217-8 to extend. The program office wants to extend it for 15 days under that clause. Does it matter how many days it's extended, given it doesn't go over 6 months? Meaning, must you exercise it on  a monthly basis as the contract currently is or can it be extended for 15 days or another number?

    How is the current contract period priced? By the day? By the month? By the work?

    ok you said it’s priced by the month.

    Can you determine the current price for 15 days?   

    “…The Government may require continued performance of any services within the limits and at the rates specified in the contract. These rates may be adjusted only as a result of revisions to prevailing labor rates provided by the Secretary of Labor.”

    Yes, we can determine it based on days. The vendor would submit that pricing. Thanks @joel hoffman

    As long as it is consistent with the CURRENT cost per day, I think that you are okay. Prorating the monthly cost…
