NEILL, Board Judge.

    This case concerns a claim for job extension costs and productivity loss brought by
SimplexGrinnell, LP (SimplexGrinnell) in conjunction with work it performed for the
General Services Administration (GSA) under contract number GS-05P-99-GBC-0015.  The
contract is for interior work in the construction of a United States Courthouse in Cleveland,
Ohio.  The claim of SimplexGrinnell is for $1,611,449. 

    Counsel for the parties have now filed with the Board a joint motion for entry of
judgment.  In this submission, counsel advise the Board that, to end this litigation, GSA has
agreed to pay, and SimplexGrinnell has agreed to accept, the sum of $525,000, inclusive of
statutory interest and attorney fees, as full settlement of the disputed items.  Both parties
represent and stipulate that they will not seek reconsideration of, or relief from, the Board's
decision and that they will not appeal the Board's decision.   

    Pursuant to the agreement of the parties and Board Rule 136(e) (48 CFR 6101.36(e)
(2003)), the Board adopts the parties' stipulation by decision.  This appeal is GRANTED IN
PART in the amount of $525,000.
