Listen and Learn… What does Price Reasonableness mean? The Government must make a determination that the price is fair and reasonable before awarding a contract. During source selections, prices are usually assessed to be reasonable, accurate, and complete before award.

Kevin and Paul discuss how price reasonableness is determined by the Government during source selections and negotiations. Learn why this subjective determination can be so difficult in the Government contracting world and why it is incumbent upon Industry to clearly explain their pricing strategy in enough detail for the Government to make this determination.

Kevin Jans and Paul Schauer created the Contracting Officer Podcast to help Government and Industry acquisition professionals understand more about how the other side thinks. Admittedly, the podcast’s name sounds very limiting, but it’s not just for contracting officers or even just for those in the contracting profession. Anyone with an interest in the Federal acquisition world can benefit from the insight and down-to-earth explanations of complicated topics provided by the hosts.
