Before Board Judges NEILL, BORWICK, and HYATT.

NEILL, Board Judge.

    This case concerns a dispute between appellant, Clark Construction Group, Inc.
(Clark), and the General Services Administration (GSA).  Clark was the contractor for the
construction of the United States Courthouse in Montgomery, Alabama.  In connection with
that project, Clark submitted what it styled as an "Omnibus Claim."  The claim, as
supplemented, amounts to $28,877,693.   In May 2002, Clark appealed from a deemed denial
of the claim.

    Since this case was docketed, counsel for the parties have been involved in active
settlement discussions.  On July 30, the Board received a joint motion for entry of a
stipulated judgment pursuant to Board Rule 136(e).  The motion requests the Board to enter
a judgement in favor of Clark in the amount of  $13,000,000 plus interest according to the
Contract Disputes Act of 1978, 41 U.S.C.    601-613 (2000), beginning May 14, 2002, until
the United States pays the judgment amount in full.  In support of their motion, the parties,
by counsel, have affirmed that neither shall seek reconsideration of or relief from the final
judgment or otherwise appeal that judgment.  They have also agreed to execute certificates
of finality upon entry of the judgment.  

    We grant the motion for stipulated judgment.  Rule 136(e) permits the Board to adopt
the parties' stipulation of settlement, by decision, and it provides that such decisions are
adjudications of the appeals on their merits.  See, e.g., Thermal Management Inc. v. General
Services Administration, GSBCA 14558, 99-1 BCA   30,354; Earl C. Wilson v. General
Services Administration, GSBCA 13152, et al., 98-2 BCA   29,934.  

    This appeal is GRANTED IN PART in accordance with the parties' stipulated
settlement.  The award is to be paid from the permanent indefinite judgment fund, 31 U.S.C. 
 1304 (2000).

We concur:
