(4) Within 10 days of a written request from the Contracting Officer for additional information to permit an adequate evaluation of the proposed price in accordance with FAR 15.403-3 or DFARS 234.7002(e), the Offeror shall provide either the requested information, or a written explanation for the inability to fully comply.

(ii) No cost data may be required from a prospective subcontractor in any case in which there are sufficient non- Government sales of the same item to establish reasonableness of price.

(iii) If the Offeror relies on relevant sales data for similar items to determine the price is reasonable, the Offeror shall obtain only that technical information necessary--

(A) To support the conclusion that items are technically similar; and

(B) To explain any technical differences that account for variances between the proposed prices and the sales data presented.
