In addition, 4P analysis includes product, pricing and supplier data from multiple manufacturer and distributor web sites. Additionally, this solicitation will be synopsized on SAM.gov or eBuy.gov as applicable, in order to maximize competition. By seeking competitive pricing it is expected to drive best pricing among all quoting contractors.
