# 301-52.4 Procedure for challenging a claim disallowance.

Employees may request reconsideration of the agency's disallowance of their claim if the employee has additional facts or documentation to support the request for reconsideration. To challenge a disallowed claim, the employee must:

(a) File a new claim.

(b) Provide full itemization for all disallowed items reclaimed.

(c) Provide receipts for all disallowed items reclaimed that require receipts, unless the agency already has the receipt.

(d) Provide a copy of the notice of disallowance.

(e) State the proper authority for the claim if the employee is challenging the agency's application of the law or statute.

(f) Follow the agency's procedures for challenging disallowed claims.

(g) If after reconsideration by the agency, the claim is still denied, the employee may submit the claim for adjudication to the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals in accordance with 48 CFR part 6104.
