9-7. Attachment E - Pricing Schedule .xlsx

This is a Pricing Schedule attachment (Attachment E) for a Request for Proposal issued by the Virginia Higher Education Procurement Consortium (VHEPC) on behalf of participating member institutions for Biomedical, Clinical & Medical Research Supplies & Services. The RFP represents a coordinated Research & Development sourcing initiative designed to modernize and streamline research-related contract coverage across multiple institutions, including the University of Virginia, Virginia Commonwealth University, and Virginia Tech. The solicitation encompasses distinct categories of goods and services, including Laboratory Animals & Related Supplies, Pharmaceutical & Biochemical Supplies, Advanced Life Sciences Scientific & Research Services, Specialized Scientific Equipment & Instrumentation, and Research & Industrial Supplies.

The pricing schedule requires offerors to provide detailed pricing information organized into two primary sections: Equipment & Supplies and Maintenance & Labor. For equipment categories, offerors must submit list prices, percentage discounts by manufacturer and product line, net pricing, installation costs, and average lead times in days, with provisions for volume-tiered pricing incentives where applicable. For maintenance and labor services, offerors must provide hourly labor rates for specified labor categories and pricing for any available preventative maintenance services on either an hourly or fixed-fee basis. This structured pricing template enables VHEPC member institutions to evaluate and compare offeror costs across standardized categories while accommodating volume-based purchasing incentives and customized service offerings.
