Morgan Island RFP NIHAO201700077

QUESTION 1: CERTIFIED COST OR PRICING DATA

There appears to be conflicting information in the RFP as to whether Certified Cost or Pricing Data will be required. On page 43, there are instructions for the Proposal Cover Sheet that state:

“This cover sheet information is for use by offerors to submit information to the Government when certified cost or pricing data are not required but information to help establish price reasonableness or cost realism is necessary. Such information is not required to be certified in accordance with FAR 15.406-2.”

However, beginning on page 43 there are instructions for when Certified Cost or Pricing Data is required. FAR 52.215-20, Requirements for Certified Cost or Pricing Data and Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data, was also included in the RFP without Alternate IV.

Answer: Please disregard the instructions on page 43 regarding Certified Cost or Pricing Data.

Certified Cost or Pricing Data is not required in this acquistion.
