Delivery Order Proposals: In response to DO RFP's, Contractors shall submit a DO proposal that includes price proposals, consisting of completing the Government provided price schedule. The price schedule will state quantities and require unit prices. The contractor proposed unit prices may not exceed the awarded base contract price, but may be lower in order to remain competitive.
