Payment Discrepancy • If a prime contractor and subcontractor disagree on an amount paid, the system creates a discrepancy. • The system sends an email message to the vendors to notify them of the issue and request they self‐resolve the discrepancy. • If they are unable to resolve the discrepancy, the Contract Compliance Officer (CCO) may be required to take action by completing an investigation and obtaining proof of payment documentation from both the prime and subcontractor such canceled checks, invoices, bank statements, etc. • Timing of the billing cycle and payment reporting are the two most common causes of discrepancies. • When both parties agree to a resolution, they can complete the process themselves, or the CCO can finish the discrepancy resolution by completing the necessary steps in C2.
