Both Attachment 3 and 4 are required to be completed and submitted with offeror’s quote iaw the instructions to offerors which states

“The quote shall include a completed Attachment 3 and 4 which includes price for all IDIQ CLINs, including unit price, total price per CLIN and total quoted price for both an IDIQ award and the first task order. Unit Pricing for IDIQ should reflect the maximum price for the meal provided in the sample menu. In preparing the quote, offerors are cautioned to review the total list of items provided in the sample menu, as that is what is expected upon delivery of the catered meal services or boxed meals (all items, not some items for that meal) in accordance with AR 30-22 Operating Procedures for Army Food Program.

The Offeror’s quoted IDIQ prices will be incorporated into the IDIQ contract at time of award.”
