(1) Completeness. The Offeror shall complete the pricing information for all CLINs, and Sub-CLINs identified for all five (5) years.

(2) Price Realism. Price Analysis in conjunction with Technical Analysis will be used to perform a price realism analysis to determine if the price is realistic for the work to be performed.
