Novations

MWL said:

A contractor provided a list of orders/ contracts affected by a recent novation in their novation package; however, one order was omitted. If the order was not included in the original listing, does the novation cover the omitted order/contract?

My first thought is what does the contractor think/intend?  Or in other words ask the contractor why the one order is not "in" their package.

Yes, I’d start there first. That ought to be obvious.

Of course, I realize that direct communications (especially oral communications) between contract administrators/KO and contractors is often an anomaly these days.
