Limitation of Cost

Definition

Limitation of Cost is a contract clause establishing the ceiling on government financial obligation for cost-reimbursement contracts. LOC provisions require contractors to notify the government when costs approach specified percentages of the funded amount.

LOC compliance prevents overruns and ensures contractors communicate funding status proactively. Understanding LOC requirements helps contractors manage cost-reimbursement contracts appropriately. LOC notifications trigger discussions about additional funding or scope adjustments.
