The contractor must strictly pass on all rebates, discounts, and financial incentives received from suppliers either through immediate catalog price reductions or by remitting payments directly to the U.S. Treasury with detailed supporting documentation.

The contract prohibits upward price adjustments beyond a 120% cumulative ceiling on Delivered Prices over the entire performance period without prior written justification and approval. A price audit may be conducted up to twice annually for three years post-final payment, during which the Government may examine records from the contractor and all tiers of its supply chain. The contractor must hold a valid PACA license, be registered in SAM.gov and DIBBS, and comply with all requirements for small business status. Performance spans multiple delivery points across the Mississippi Zone, with no single designated place of performance, and the contract operates under an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity structure with an overall estimated value ranging from $6.65 million to a maximum of $49.875 million over a potential five-year term, though the base period is projected to span 24 months.
