Note that work items included on each task order will vary. Refer to the task order bid schedule for a complete listing of work items included with that task order. Refer to SECTION 01 22 00.00 11 MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT for additional information on items listed above.

NOTE 1: Offerors shall furnish unit prices for all items listed on the schedule of offerors items, which require unit prices and have an estimated quantity. If the offeror fails to insert a unit price in the appropriate blank for required items, but does furnish an extended total or an estimated amount for such items, the Government will deem his unit price to be the quotient obtained by dividing the extended estimated amount for that line item by the quantity. IF THE OFFEROR OMITS BOTH THE

UNIT PRICE AND THE EXTENDED ESTIMATED AMOUNT FOR ANY ITEM, THIS OFFER WILL BE

DECLARED NONRESPONSIVE.

In the event there is a difference between a unit price and the extended total, the unit price will be held to be the intended offer. If the offeror shows only the total price but fails to enter a unit price, the total divided by the estimated quantity will be held to be the intended unit price.

Any offer price for items indicated above which are unbalanced as to price may be rejected as non-responsive. An unbalanced offer is one which is based on price significantly less than cost for some work and price which is significantly overstated for other work.

Each task order award will be made as a whole to one offeror.

AC = Acre CF = Cubic Feet CY = Cubic Yard

DH = Miles EA = Each FC = 1000 Cubic Feet

FT = Foot HF = 100 Feet HH = 100 Cubic Feet

HL = 100 Linear Ft HR = Hours HS = 100 Square Feet

HY = 100 Yards LB = Pound LF = Linear Foot

LH = Labor Hour JA = Job (lump sum) LY = Linear Yard

MI = Miles SB = Square Mile SF = Square Foot

SQ = Square SY = Square Yard TL = 1000 Linear Feet

TN = Net Ton UN = Unit YD = Yard

YL = 100 Linear Yards YM = Cubic Yards Per Mile

All quantities are estimated except where unit is given as "JA" or "EA".

NOTE 2: If a offer or modification to an offer based on unit prices is submitted and provides for a job adjustment to the total estimated cost, the application of the job adjustment to each unit price, including job units, in bid schedule must be stated, or, if it is not stated, the offeror agrees that the job adjustment shall be applied on a pro rata basis to every unit price in the bid schedule.
