No help, but that is standard practice for a novation according to the FAR.
Shouldn’t be hard to find an attorney who can draft that for you, and it should not be super expensive either.

For those wondering, the Anti-Assignment Act precludes the assignment of a contract where the Federal government is a party unless the Federal government waives its non-assignment right through the novation process. Since we Federal attorneys are not experts in all state’s laws, the Federal Acquisition Regulation requires a letter from attorneys saying that the transfer and new ownership was done legally to reduce risk later that we novated a contract to a party where the business transaction did not happen legally. The rest of the paperwork is to ensure that the new party to the contract is in just as good of financial position to perform as the previous party to the contract, and accepts everything done on the contract prior to them becoming a party.

Not that anyone asked…or cares.
