Ref: Cover Letter §4b vs. RFI #3 | The Cover Letter states contractors are not required to price items they cannot perform. RFI #3 states "yes, all items need to be priced except % items." These appear contradictory. Please confirm: must all non-percentage line items be priced, or only items the contractor can perform?
Only items the contractor can perform need to be listed. This is a change from RFI #3 and updated in Amendment #3. Please list only the items you as the contractor can perform.
