These records become thebasis for verification of the accuracy of project cost estimates during validation of small projects,reconciliation of costs for large projects, and audits. To ensure documentation is maintainedto support that costs incurred in performance of this contract are allowable and allocable, anycontract issued pursuant to this solicitation shall be subject to the record retention requirementsof Title 2, Part 200 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Given the broad language set forth inthe applicable provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations, Tulane specifically notes forofferors that one of Tulane’s priorities in the award of this contract will be the system forcollecting and the retention system for maintaining accurate information about the events andexpenditures related to contract. Tulane expects each offer to include a detailed descriptionof the recordkeeping system that the offeror is proposing, and the strength of the data collectionand retention proposals will be one of the principal criteria on which Tulane will determine whichoffer will best facilitate successful accomplishment of its goals.5.3.2.2In determining what data collection and retention system to propose, potential offerors shouldconsult Title 2, Part 200 of the Code of Federal Regulations, which requires the retention ofrecords directly pertinent to the work.The information required for documentation describes the “who, what, when, where, why, andhow much,” for each item of work.

Further,any contractor shall be required to flow down this requirement to, or a substantially similarrequirement, its subcontractors, to make certain that Tulane will have in its possession (oraccess to) all the information necessary to satisfy its obligations to the Federal government.5.3.2.4Contractor agrees to maintain the records described herein for a period of five (5) years fromthe date of final payment. Contractor also agrees to notify Tulane in writing at least sixty (60)days prior to the destruction of any such documents so that Tulane may request the provisionof such documents or copies thereof prior to their destruction. Tulane shall pay any associatedshipping and/or reproduction costs.5.3.2.5The failure on the part of the contractor to adequately conform to the record keeping processin compliance with the applicable regulations and this term, including the notification ofdestruction, shall serve as a basis to allow Tulane to recover any monies not ultimatelyrecovered from and/or reimbursed by the federal government as a result of a lack of relevantsupporting documentation.5.4Flow Down RequirementsContract shall be required to flow down the following requirements to all subcontractors, asapplicable: The requirements of Title 2 Part 200 of the Code of Federal Regulations;The Tulane specific terms and conditions as set forth at paragraph 5.3; andThe federally required provisions, including the document collection and retentionrequirements as set forth in paragraph 5.4.COMMENCEMENT DATE & COMPLETION TIME:6.1Completion Time:6.1.1Contractor hereby agrees to commence Work as Work Orders are issued and to fullycomplete the project as provided in the Contract Documents by date on issued Work Order.Contractor's attention is especially directed to the urgency of this Work and that time is of theessence.
