Reasonableness will be determined by considering other offered prices received and comparison to the Independent Government Estimate. In addition, offerors are cautioned that the agency may reject a proposal if the price is unreasonably low, as such a price may be an indicator of a lack of understanding of the project requirements or of an increased risk of performance.
