              OPINION BY ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE WOODROW

       Previously, on June 29, 2016, the Board issued an entitlement decision
sustaining ASBCA Nos. 56850 and 57542 and dismissing as moot ASBCA No. 57661.
The Board remanded the matters to the parties for negotiation of quantum. By letter
dated July 31, 2018, appellant stated that it wished the Board to proceed with quantum.
The Board assigned ASBCA No. 61729 to the quantum phase of these matters.

       The parties have now resolved their dispute and request that the Board enter
judgment in favor of appellant. It is the Board's decision, pursuant to 41 U.S.C.
§§ 7105(e), 7108(b), and the parties' settlement agreement and joint motion for entry
of consent judgment, that this appeal is sustained. In the nature of a consent judgment,
the Board makes a monetary award to appellant in the amount of $240,000,000.00.
This amount is inclusive of interest. No further interest shall be paid.
