41-2543. Cost or pricing data
A. The submission of current cost or pricing data may be required in connection with an award in situations in which analysis of the proposed price is essential to determine that the price is reasonable and fair. A contractor shall, except as provided in subsection C, submit current cost or pricing data and shall certify that, to the best of the contractor's knowledge and belief, the cost or pricing data submitted was accurate, complete and current as of a mutually determined specified date before the date of either:
1. The pricing of any contract awarded by competitive sealed proposals or pursuant to the sole source procurement authority, if the total contract price is expected to exceed an amount established by department rules.
2. The pricing of any change order or contract modification which is expected to exceed an amount established by department rules.
B. Any contract, change order or contract modification under which a certificate is required shall contain a provision that the price to this state shall be adjusted to exclude any significant amounts by which this state finds that the price was increased because the contractor-furnished cost or pricing data was inaccurate, incomplete or not current as of the date agreed on between the parties. Such adjustment by this state may include profit or fee.
C. The requirements of this section need not be applied to contracts if any of the following applies:
1. The contract price is based on adequate price competition.
2. The contract price is based on established catalogue prices or market prices.
3. Contract prices are set by law or rule.
4. It is determined in writing in accordance with rules adopted by the director that the requirements of this section may be waived, and the reasons for the waiver are stated in writing.
