1231.205 Selected costs.
1231.205-32 Precontract costs.
(a) The decision to incur precontract costs is that of the
contractor. No DOT employee can authorize, demand, or require a contractor to
incur precontract costs. The contracting officer may advise the prospective
contractor that any costs incurred before contract award are at the
contractor's sole risk and that if negotiations fail to result in a binding
contract, payment of these costs may not be made by the Government.
(b) When the contracting officer determines that incurring precontract costs was necessary to meet the proposed contract delivery schedule of a cost-reimbursement contract, the clause at (TAR) 48 CFR 1252.231-70, Date of Incurrence of Costs, may be inserted in the resultant contract.
