• The proposed price is accurate, complete and reasonable.

Basis for Award

The Government intends to award a single Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Contract (with a 12-month period of performance) to Bi2 provided the proposal is determined to be technically acceptable and the proposed price is determined to be fair and reasonable. No award will be made if the proposal is not acceptable or if the price is not fair and reasonable. Bi2 is strongly encouraged to submit its best technical and price proposal. ICE reserves the right to contact Bi2 to obtain additional information regarding the proposal. ICE reserves the right to negotiate any aspect of proposal (price or non-price factors) if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government.
