AUDIT REVIEW PROCEDURES a. Any dispute concerning a question of fact arising under an interim or post audit of this Agreement that is not disposed of by Agreement, shall be reviewed by C/CAG’s Finance Department. b. Not later than thirty (30) calendar days after issuance of the final audit report, Consultant may request a review by C/CAG’s Finance Department of unresolved audit issues. The request for review will be submitted in writing. c. Neither the pendency of a dispute nor its consideration by C/CAG will excuse Consultant from full and timely performance, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. d. Consultant and subconsultant Agreements, including cost proposals and Indirect Cost Rates (ICR), may be subject to audits or reviews such as, but not limited to, an Agreement audit, an incurred cost audit, an ICR Audit, or a CPA ICR audit work paper review. If selected for audit or review, the Agreement, cost proposal and ICR and related work papers, if applicable, will be reviewed to verify compliance with 48 CFR Part 31 and other related laws and regulations. In the instances of a CPA ICR audit work paper review it is Consultant’s responsibility to ensure federal, C/CAG, or local government officials are allowed full access to the CPA’s work papers including making copies as necessary. The Agreement, cost proposal, and ICR shall be adjusted by Consultant and approved by C/CAG Contract Administrator to conform to the audit or review recommendations. Consultant agrees that individual terms of costs identified in the audit report shall be incorporated into the Agreement by this reference if directed by C/CAG at its sole discretion. Refusal by Consultant to incorporate audit or review recommendations, or to ensure that the federal, C/CAG or local governments have access to CPA work papers, will be considered a breach of Agreement terms and cause for termination of the Agreement and disallowance of prior reimbursed costs.
