Attachment J1 - Price Schedule.xlsx

This is a Price Schedule template for a breath switch development and production contract. The schedule is designed to capture pricing for a single-award, 5-year IDIQ contract above the simplified acquisition threshold for the Library of Congress. The contract encompasses two distinct phases: a non-recurring engineering (NRE) phase for development of the breath switch and associated Technical Data Package, and a full-production phase for manufacturing the device. The breath switch will control Digital Talking Book Machine models (DS-1, DA-1, and DA-2) using air pulse commands and must include a microcontroller, circuitry, USB-A connector, housing, and food-safe silicone tubing.

The price schedule template would typically require contractors to provide cost breakdowns for both the NRE phase and production quantities across the 5-year IDIQ period. Contractors must also account for development of required tooling, production equipment, and manufacturing procedures. The solicitation is structured as a simplified acquisition under FAR Part 13, indicating it falls below or near the simplified acquisition threshold for initial award, though the resulting contract will be an IDIQ vehicle. Additional detailed requirements for the breath switch are contained in Attachment J-3 of the solicitation package.
