About this file

This document is a Price Form Instructions appendix issued by the State of Maryland, applicable to a consultant position with the Governor's Office of Crime Prevention and Policy to conduct a study within the Maryland adult prison system. The instructions establish mandatory formatting and submission requirements for all bidders and offerors responding to the solicitation. All pricing must be submitted via the provided Price Form without alterations, and the form must be signed and dated by an authorized representative. The solicitation does not specify response dates, due dates, bidder conferences, site visits, or award timelines within this instruction document.

All unit and extended prices must be entered clearly in dollars and cents with distinct decimal points, and all calculations must be rounded to the nearest cent. Pricing must represent actual costs per unit or service and cannot be contingent on external factors or conditions. All fully loaded labor rates and associated costs—including labor, profit, overhead, administrative expenses, and all other costs necessary to perform the required work—must be included in the submitted prices with no additional compensation available. Every editable field on the Price Form must be completed, and incomplete submissions will be rejected. The document specifies that sample amounts provided for calculation purposes are estimates for evaluation only and do not guarantee minimum or maximum units or usage during contract performance. Any failure to adhere to these instructions may result in the offer being deemed non-responsive or unsuitable for award consideration.

Appendix 2. Price Form Instructions Effective Date: July 2024

Appendix 2. Price Form Instructions

Each Bidder/Offeror shall submit its response via the Price Form in accordance with the instructions specified herein. Do not alter the Price Form; otherwise, the Bid may be determined to be not responsive or the Proposal may be determined to be not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award. If the Price Form contains a signature box, it must be signed and dated by an individual who is authorized to bind the Bidder/Offeror to the prices entered on the Price Form.

Follow these instructions carefully when completing your Price Form:

A) All Unit and Extended Prices must be clearly entered in dollars and cents, e.g., $24.15. Make your decimal points clear and distinct.

B) All Unit Prices must be the actual price per unit the State will pay for the specific item or service identified in this IFB/RFP and may not be contingent on any other factor or condition in any manner.

C) All calculations shall be rounded to the nearest cent, e.g., .344 shall be .34 and .345 shall be .35.

D) Any goods or services required through this RFP which are proposed to be provided at No Cost to the State must be clearly entered in the Unit Price, if appropriate, and Extended Price with $0.00.

E) Every editable field in the Price Form shall be completed. Any changes or corrections made to the

Price Form by the Bidder/Offeror prior to submission due date shall be initialed and dated, if required, or submitted as a new Price Form through eMMA. Partial or incomplete Bids/Proposals will be rejected unless otherwise stated in the solicitation.

F) Except as instructed on the Price Form, nothing shall be entered on or attached to the Price Form that proposes conditions or contingencies on the prices. Conditions may render the Bid not responsive or the Proposal not reasonably susceptible for being selected for award.

G) It is imperative that the prices included on the Price Form have been entered correctly and calculated accurately by the Offeror and that the respective total prices agree with the entries on the Price

Form. Any incorrect entries or inaccurate calculations by the Offeror will be treated as provided in

COMAR 21.05.02.12 and may cause the Proposal to be rejected.

H) All pricing, including labor rates, entered in the Price Form must be fully loaded prices that include all costs/expenses associated with the provision of services required by the RFP. Examples may include all labor, profit/overhead, general operating, administrative, and all other expenses and costs necessary to perform the work set forth in the solicitation. No other amounts will be paid to the

Contractor.

J) Unless indicated elsewhere in the RFP, sample amounts used for calculations on the Price Form are typically estimates for evaluation purposes only. Unless stated otherwise in the RFP, a minimum or maximum number of units or usage in the performance of the Contract is not guaranteed.

K) Failure to adhere to any of these instructions may result in the Offer being determined not responsive or the Proposal being determined not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award.
