Common use of Acceleration at Princeton University’s Expense Clause in Contracts

Acceleration at Princeton University’s Expense. Princeton University may request the Contractor to accelerate (including more personnel, overtime, and/or double shifts) the completion of the Work or a portion of the Work, at a time when the Contractor is not behind schedule in the performance of the Work. The Contractor agrees to accelerate the Work, and the Contractor shall be reimbursed only for the Contractor’s extra labor cost over the amount for regular time during the period of such acceleration, including additional fringe benefit costs, insurance and taxes incurred by it with respect thereto and only those other actual costs of the Contractor directly related to the acceleration, which have been approved in advance by Princeton University in a written Change Order. Time slips covering said overtime must be correlated to the accelerated/overtime schedule activities and submitted to Princeton University for checking and approval. No commission or fee is to be charged by or allowed to Contractor on account of acceleration or costs related thereto, nor shall Contractor be compensated for any lost efficiency or production alleged to have resulted from said overtime work, except as expressly agreed in advance by Princeton University.
