Subcontractor Cost Realism and Pricing Model Development

The contract requires the development and validation of detailed cost models tailored for subcontractor pricing, with a focus on labor, materials, and equipment, ensuring full compliance with FAR 15.408 requirements for cost realism and pricing analysis. These models must be built using embedded Excel formulas to automate calculations, provide transparent cost breakdowns, and support accurate, defensible pricing assessments that align with government procurement standards. The models must be validated through rigorous testing to confirm accuracy, reliability, and consistency across multiple scenarios, enabling the government to evaluate subcontractor proposals with confidence. Work is to be performed at Redstone Arsenal under the oversight of the Department of Defense, specifically via the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation office in Huntsville. The solicitation is targeted at subcontractors with expertise in cost modeling and defense contracting, using NAICS code 541611 for management, scientific, and technical consulting services. Proposals are due by June 29, 2026, at 7:00 PM, with an emphasis on delivering fully documented, audit-ready models that clearly trace cost elements to source data and reflect realistic assumptions aligned with current market conditions and industry practices.
