OPERATING STATUS
I was a bit confused by the background provided. I think you are saying FAR 52.216-7(d)(6) was included in the contract so the Government and the Contractor need to follow FAR 52.216-7(d)(6), but there are others in your office telling you the Government can reopen negotiations. I recommend you follow FAR 52.216-7(d)(6)(i) and (ii)
(i) If the Contractor fails to submit a completion invoice or voucher within the time specified in paragraph (d)(5) of this clause, the Contracting Officer may--
(A) Determine the amounts due to the Contractor under the contract; and
(B) Record this determination in a unilateral modification to the contract.
(ii) This determination constitutes the final decision of the Contracting Officer in accordance with the Disputes clause.
Recommend you also speak with legal.
