About this file
This document is a pricing submission instruction appendix for a federal contract solicitation requiring milestone-based pricing and cost documentation.
Offerors must complete and submit three appendices: Appendix E (Milestone Pricing Summary), Appendix E(1) (Milestone Pricing Sheet – Table F-1), and Appendix E(2) (Milestone Pricing Sheet – Table F-2 Continuation). For Milestone Payment Schedules A through D, offerors must provide market pricing data demonstrating the reasonableness of proposed prices, including quotes, purchase orders, invoices, and sales receipts for identical or similar items sold commercially or to other government entities. When pricing similar items, offerors must adjust prior prices to account for material differences. For Milestone Payment Schedule F, offerors must submit comprehensive cost verification documentation including detailed breakdowns of direct labor (hours, rates, and cost by category with estimation basis), indirect costs (computation methodology, cost base, and pool data), and other direct costs such as special tooling, travel, and consultant services. Travel costs require itemized justification by trip, including purpose, destination, number of travelers, duration, and estimated expenses for airfare, lodging, meals and incidentals, and rental vehicles aligned with Joint Travel Regulations rates. Subcontractors must provide complete cost breakdowns with supporting documentation, and offerors must submit any applicable rate packages including Forward Pricing Rate Agreements, Forward Pricing Recommendations, Forward Pricing Rate Proposals, or provisional billing rates. The Agreements Officer may request additional supporting information only as necessary to determine price fairness and reasonableness.
