About this file
This document contains price form instructions for a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) for Evaluation, Measurement, and Verification (EM&V) services supporting the EmPower Maryland Program, which provides energy efficiency consulting services to ensure safe and affordable housing for Maryland citizens. The price form serves as the official submission mechanism for all bidders and must be completed in strict accordance with the specified instructions without alterations, omissions, or amendments. All unit prices and extended prices must be entered clearly in dollars and cents format with distinct decimal points, calculations rounded to the nearest cent, and every editable field completed. Bidders must ensure prices are accurate and correctly calculated, as errors may result in bid rejection per COMAR 21.05.02.12 regulations.
All pricing submitted on the price form, including labor rates, must be fully loaded to encompass all costs and expenses associated with service delivery, including labor, profit, overhead, administrative costs, and all other necessary expenses to perform the required work. No additional amounts will be paid beyond the submitted prices. Sample amounts used for calculation purposes are estimates for evaluation only, and unless otherwise specified in the RFP, the contract does not guarantee minimum or maximum units or usage levels. Any goods or services proposed at no cost to the State must be clearly marked as $0.00. The price form must be signed and dated by an authorized representative and submitted via eMMA by the specified deadline; partial or incomplete bids will be rejected unless the solicitation permits otherwise.

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 IFB/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 Bidder/Offeror and that the respective total prices agree with the entries on the
Price Form. Any incorrect entries or inaccurate calculations by the Bidder/Offeror will be treated as provided in COMAR 21.05.02.12 and may cause the Bid/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 IFB/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 IFB/RFP, sample amounts used for calculations on the Price
Form are typically estimates for evaluation purposes only. Unless stated otherwise in the IFB/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 Bid being determined not responsive or the Proposal being determined not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award.
