The document outlines the market research conducted by an end customer on November 19, 2024, which led to the creation of an Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE) to support pricing on purchase requests (PRs). A price analysis was performed to evaluate price reasonableness by comparing a sufficient number of competitive quotes obtained from a brand-name only solicitation. This process ensures that the pricing aligns with industry standards while adhering to federal guidelines for procurement and grant proposals. The emphasis on competitive quotes indicates a commitment to achieving cost-effectiveness in government contracting, which is critical in managing public funds and ensuring transparency in procurements. This assessment is vital for determining the appropriate financial investment in projects under federal, state, and local RFPs.
