I believe the post house was working off the QTs from the camera and not a re-export but I could be wrong.

I have had that happen when sending QT to a separate color correction place. It turned out if the Avid made any kind of time warping on the footage it would muck up the output's FPS as well. Unfortunately the fix turned out to be (at that time, I hope it's better now) to re-export the color corrected footage in question as individual frames.
