CBCA’s FY 2023 Report – Examining the Numbers

Client Alert | 1 min read | 01.05.24

The Civilian Board of Contract Appeals (CBCA) recently published its Annual Report for FY 2023, providing statistics regarding the adjudication of appeals between contractors and civilian agencies such as the Department of State, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the General Services Administration, the Department of Transportation, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of the Interior, and the Central Intelligence Agency. According to this year’s report, contractors prevailed in 45% of the appeals decided on the merits, which is much higher than the 21% success rate in 2022.
