About this file
This file contains Price Form Instructions for an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the State of Maryland, specifically for IFB LR271001 regarding Concrete Ties & Rail Material. The instructions establish mandatory requirements for bidder submissions through a standardized Price Form. Key requirements include: all unit and extended prices must be entered in dollars and cents with clear decimal points; all unit prices represent actual per-unit costs with no contingencies; calculations must be rounded to the nearest cent; goods or services provided at no cost must be marked as $0.00; every editable field must be completed; any changes or corrections require initials and dates; and partial or incomplete bids will be rejected. Bidders are prohibited from altering the Price Form, proposing conditions or contingencies on prices, or attaching additional documentation to the form, as such actions may render the bid non-responsive or unsuitable for award consideration.
All pricing entered on the Price Form must be fully loaded to include all labor costs, profit, overhead, general operating expenses, administrative costs, and all other expenses necessary to perform the work specified in the solicitation, with no additional payments to be made to the contractor beyond these submitted prices. Sample amounts used for calculations are estimates for evaluation purposes only, and no minimum or maximum number of units or usage is guaranteed unless explicitly stated in the IFB. Bidders must ensure all prices are entered correctly and calculations are accurate, as incorrect entries or inaccurate calculations may result in bid rejection. Failure to adhere to these instructions may render the bid non-responsive or unsuitable for award consideration. The actual Price Form is provided as a separate Excel file labeled "Table A - Attachment B - The Price Form, IFB LR271000 - Switch Points & Stock Rails.eMMA.xls."

Appendix 2. Price Form Instructions
Each Bidder shall submit its response via the Price Form in accordance with the instructions specified herein. Do not alter the Price Form; otherwise, the Bid may be determined to be not responsive, or the
Proposal may be determined to be not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award. If the Price
Form contains a signature box, it must be signed and dated by an individual who is authorized to bind the
Bidder to the prices entered on the Price Form.
Follow these instructions carefully when completing your Price Form:
A) All Unit and Extended Prices must be clearly entered in dollars and cents, e.g., $24.15. Make your decimal points clear and distinct.
B) All Unit Prices must be the actual price per unit the State will pay for the specific item or service identified in this IFB and may not be contingent on any other factor or condition in any manner.
C) All calculations shall be rounded to the nearest cent, e.g., .344 shall be .34 and .345 shall be .35.
D) Any goods or services required through this IFB which are proposed to be provided at No Cost to the State must be clearly entered in the Unit Price, if appropriate, and Extended Price with $0.00.
E) Every editable field in the Price Form shall be completed. Any changes or corrections made to the
Price Form by the Bidder prior to submission due date shall be initialed and dated, if required, or submitted as a new Price Form through eMMA. Partial or incomplete Bids/Proposals will be rejected unless otherwise stated in the solicitation.
F) Except as instructed on the Price Form, nothing shall be entered on or attached to the Price Form that proposes conditions or contingencies on the prices. Conditions may render the Bid not responsive or the Proposal not reasonably susceptible for being selected for award.
G) It is imperative that the prices included on the Price Form have been entered correctly and calculated accurately by the Bidder and that the respective total prices agree with the entries on the Price
Form. Any incorrect entries or inaccurate calculations by the Bidder will be treated as provided in
COMAR 21.05.02.12 and may cause the Bid/Proposal to be rejected.
H) All pricing, including labor rates, entered in the Price Form must be fully loaded prices that include all costs/expenses associated with the provision of services required by the IFB. Examples may include all labor, profit/overhead, general operating, administrative, and all other expenses and costs necessary to perform the work set forth in the solicitation. No other amounts will be paid to the
Contractor.
J) Unless indicated elsewhere in the IFB, sample amounts used for calculations on the Price Form are typically estimates for evaluation purposes only. Unless stated otherwise in the IFB, a minimum or maximum number of units or usage in the performance of the Contract is not guaranteed.
K) Failure to adhere to any of these instructions may result in the Bid being determined not responsive or the Proposal being determined not reasonably susceptible of being selected for award.
