CLIN Requires Cost Segregation?

On a Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract with multiple CLINs I believe that the fact that there are multiple CLINs does not, in and of itself, require that incurred costs be segregated by CLIN.
I have seen instances where contract provisions require cost accounting by CLIN, but am just trying to verify my understanding that, absent terms requiring it, having multiple CLINs does not require collection and reporting of costs by CLIN.

That is my understanding as well.
Unfortunately DCAA seems to have a different opinion.

It depends on the CLIN. As a CO, I preferred cost segregation, but I agree that it's not always strictly necessary.
It's a matter you should clear up with the CO before performance begins, even if the contract is silent.
