About this file
This document is a Price Form Instructions guide for the State of Maryland's Invitation for Bid (IFB) LR271000 for Switch Points & Stock Rails, effective July 2024. Bidders must complete and submit pricing information using the designated Price Form in Excel format without alterations, with all entries clearly presented in dollars and cents format. The Price Form must be signed and dated by an authorized representative, with every editable field completed; partial or incomplete bids will be rejected unless otherwise specified in the solicitation.
All unit and extended prices must reflect actual per-unit costs that the State will pay for identified items or services and may not be contingent upon other factors or conditions. Bidders must round all calculations to the nearest cent, clearly indicate any no-cost provisions as $0.00, and ensure that all pricing represents fully loaded costs encompassing labor, profit, overhead, general operating expenses, administrative costs, and all other expenses necessary to perform the contracted work. The instructions emphasize that sample amounts used for calculations are typically estimates for evaluation purposes only, with no guaranteed minimum or maximum units or usage unless explicitly stated in the IFB. Failure to adhere to these instructions may result in the bid being deemed non-responsive or not reasonably susceptible for award.

Appendix 2. Price Form Instructions Effective Date: July 2024
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.
