Common use of Flexible Funding Mechanism Clause in Contracts

Flexible Funding Mechanism. The Contractor may submit a Flexible Funding Request Form (Appendix I) to seek approval of additional tasks within the scope of work described in this Attachment A. Each Flexible Funding Request Form submitted by the Contractor shall outline the need for the additional services and shall contain clear deliverables. The flexible funding mechanism described in this section is intended to clarify and expand upon tasks already enumerated in the agreement. Both parties recognize that the availability of the flexible funding mechanism does not obviate the need for state review of amendments to the scope, budget, or maximum amount of this agreement. The Contractor may not begin work on any additional tasks described in a Flexible Funding Request Form until the request has been accepted and approved by the State in writing. State approval is contingent upon approval from the State’s Blueprint Assistant Director and the Office of the Attorney General.
