The MCB Camp Lejeune Verona FY26 "Pay-As-Cut" bid page outlines a timber sale solicitation. Bidders must propose unit prices for various timber products, including different grades of pine and hardwood. A critical requirement is that all unit prices must meet or exceed the government's estimated unit prices; bids failing this condition for even one product will be rejected. The winning bidder will be determined by the highest grand total, calculated by multiplying unit prices by estimated quantities, provided all unit price criteria are met. The document explicitly states that estimated volumes are not guaranteed and may vary significantly. For products without specified quantities, unit prices are established for potential future harvesting. This ensures a fair and competitive bidding process while safeguarding the government's interests in timber sales.
