Scenario 2 BSD has available for use only the following appropriations: (1) Operations 8. Maintenance (0&M}; (2) Civilian Personnel; (3) Other Procurement; and {4) Military Construction. in July 2011, BSD's contracting ofce awarded a rmxed price supply contract for the purchase of 500 battery packs. The battery packs are initial spare parts for biosensor equipment used bythe user community that Conrad Special supports and are specially manufactured in accordance with governmentprovided specications. The battery packs are to be delivered over the next 12 months with nal delivery in July 2012. In December 2011, the program ofce informed Conrad that the battery packs had been very useful in the war effort; however, there was a need for some minor changes in the specications to maintain the expected level of performance. Specically, they needed to be made more heat resistant for use in desert conditions. In response, Conrad issued a change order and negotiated an equitable adjustment that increased the contract price. in April 2012, the program manager informed Conrad that, due to the ongoing war on terror, there is a need for an additional 7'5 battery packs. These battery packs are needed as soon as possible but no later than 30 September 2012. Conrad is not very experienced in Fiscal Law matters. He asked my advice as to the correct appropriation accounts appropriation category and year that should have been used for each described contract action. lam no FMR expert but I think there may be special denitions or rules or exceptions that apply. I also wonder if it makes any difference whether the changes are inscope or outofscope
