Sec. 21.06.05.02. Audits

A. Audit of Cost or Pricing Data. Designees of the procurement agency, the Department of Legislative Services, or any other State unit authorized by law may audit during the record retention period the books and records of any person who has submitted cost or pricing data to the extent that the books and records relate to the cost or pricing data.

B. Contract Audit. Designees of the procurement agency, the Department of Legislative Services, or any other State unit authorized by law shall be entitled to audit the books and records of a contractor or any subcontractor under any negotiated contract or subcontract other than a firm fixed-price contract to the extent that the books and records relate to the performance of the contract or subcontract, or if the agency has reason to believe, from an audit of a cost type contract, that costs have been inappropriately assigned to a cost type contract from a fixed price contract.
