-
(a) The procedures in 570.502 apply to alterations acquired directly from a lessor by modification or supplemental lease agreement. This is allowed if the following conditions are met:
-
(1) The alterations fall within the scope of the lease. Consider whether the work can be regarded fairly and reasonably as part of the original lease requirement.
-
(2) The lessor is willing to perform the proposed alterations at a fair and reasonable price.
-
(3) It is in the Government’s interest to acquire the alterations from the lessor.

-
(b) If proposed alterations are outside the scope of the existing lease, decide whether to acquire the alterations through either:
-
(1) A supplemental lease agreement, as justified and approved under 570.502-1.
-
(2) Government performance or a separate contract. The lease must first provide the Government with the right to perform alterations to the leased space.
