P.K. Management Group, Inc. v. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, No. 20-1260 (Fed. Cir. 2021)
Annotate this Case
The Federal Circuit affirmed the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals' decision denying P.K. Management's claim that it should receive individual payments for inspections of Custodial properties under a contract with the Department of Housing and Urban Development. The court agreed with the Board's determination that the contract terms unambiguously cover routine inspections through a monthly fee rather than individual payments.
In this case, the court read the Contract as whole and held that the plain meaning places compensation for routine inspections of Custodial properties under Contract Line Item Numbers (CLIN) 0006 rather than CLIN 0005AA. The court explained that, because the Contract is unambiguous, it follows the plain meaning without considering extrinsic evidence or related arguments. The court considered P.K. Management's remaining arguments and found them unpersuasive.
