(b) Pricing Proposal:

This section must contain Contractor pricing.

If, however, competition does not materialize, the Contracting Officer may require upon request “other than certified cost and pricing” deemed necessary to adequately evaluate the reasonableness of the price. Examples of “other than certified cost and pricing” include competitive published lists, published market prices, similar quote and/or copies of actual vendor quotations received.
