Sec. 1274.801  Adjustments to performance costs.





    In order to accomplish program objectives, there may be occasions 

where additional contributions (cash and/or in-kind contributions) by 

NASA and the recipient beyond the initial agreement may be needed. There 

may also be occasions where actual costs of NASA and the recipient may 

be less than initially agreed. In cases where program costs are 

adjusted, prior to execution of a modification to the agreement, mutual 

agreement between NASA and the recipient shall also be reached on the 

corresponding changes in program requirements such as schedule, work 

statements and milestone payments. Funding for any work required beyond 

the initial funding level of the cooperative agreement,

shall require submission by the recipient of a detailed proposal to the 

agreement officer. Prior to execution of a modification increasing 

NASA's initial cost share or funding levels, detailed cost analysis 

techniques may be applied, which may include requests for audits 

services and/or application of other pricing support techniques. Any 

adjustments or modifications that result in a change to the performance 

costs of the cooperative agreement shall continue to maintain the share 

ratio requirements (normally 50/50) stated in Sec. 1274.204(b).
