In short
This is the government official responsible for making payments on government contracts. They are crucial for ensuring payments are directed correctly after an assignment of claims.
Under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, your lender will also notify the disbursing officer of the assignment. This ensures that future payments for the government contract are sent directly to the lender, securing their interest in the receivables for your SBA loan.
