SECTION 1 - Cost/Price

a. Offerors shall submit proposed pricing in accordance with Attachment L-3, Cost Proposal Format.

Proposed Costs and Fees must be provided for each cost element identified in this solicitation. The Offeror shall comply with instructions contained herein for submittal of the Cost/Price Proposal.

Contract proposals will be evaluated for a Total Evaluated Price and successful offeror’s must demonstrate reasonableness, realism, and completeness of the proposed costs.

b. Offerors are advised that the anticipated distribution of direct labor by labor category for this effort is listed in Section C-4. Furthermore, the Government anticipates that efforts in support of the IDIQ will be performed at both the government and contractor facilities and Offerors should propose rates accordingly (Attachment L-3). For evaluation purposes, offerors shall generate a CPFF on-site proposal, a CPFF off-site proposal, a FFP on-site proposal and a FFP off-site proposal using Attachment L-3 and the total anticipated hours provided in Section L-25.

c. Offeror's proposal should represent its best efforts to respond to the solicitation. Any inconsistency between promised performance, the technical capability and experience in the proposal, identified personnel resources, and cost/price must be explained in the proposal. For example, if the intended use of new and innovative techniques is the basis for an abnormally low estimate, the nature of these techniques and their impact on cost or price shall be explained; or, if a corporate policy decision has been made to absorb a portion of the estimated cost/price, that must be stated in the proposal. Any inconsistency, if unexplained, may raise a fundamental question of the Offeror’s understanding of the nature and scope of the work required and may adversely impact the evaluation of the Offeror’s proposal. The burden of proof as to cost/price credibility rests with the Offeror. Unrealistically low prices may indicate an inability to understand requirements and a high risk approach to contract performance. Accordingly, the Government may consider the findings of such an analysis in evaluating an Offeror’s ability to perform and the risk of its approach.
