What is the conrad corporation?

Conrad Corporation is a clothing manufacturer that won a sealed-bid contract to produce uniforms for the Government. Now several months later, Conrad has submitted a claim related to the Government’s failure to provide Government Furnished Material (GFM). The following paragraphs outline contract events related to the claim:
October 20, 1998. A contract was awarded for production for 101,400 uniform costs. The contract specifies that the Government will furnish the material required to produce the outer shell of the required coats. GFM consumption was estimated at 2.4 yards per coat for a total material usage of 243,360 yards. The contract called for the Government to release GFM in quantities no larger than 50,000 yards to limit contractor storage space requirements at the Conrad plant.
October 5, 1999. Government Depot personnel notified the contracting officer that the Depot was unable to fill Conrad GFM requisitions because of a stock shortage. Depot computer records indicated that there were 100,000 yards of material available but a physical inventory failed to locate any of the required material or an acceptable substitute.
November 5, 1999. The contracting officer notified Conrad that the required GFM was not available and that the Government planned to convert the balance of the contract to Contrctor-Furniched Material (CFM). At that time, Conrad estimated that 95,000 yards of material would be required to complete the balance of the contract (39,584 units).
November 19, 1999. The contracting officer issued a unilateral change converting the outer shall material from GFM to CFM. At that time, Conrad indicated that a 3-4 weeks of uncut GFM inventory remained and projected a 5 to 6 week lead time for receipt of the CFM.
