PRIMARY TECHNIQUE
Adequate Price Competition
![Page 31: PRICE ANALY$I$ Presented by: Eric Heckelman March 27-28, 2000.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e415503460f94b32e6a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Adequate Price Competition
• Two or more bidders
• Independently compete for award
• Responsible
• Responsive
• Award to Lowest Evaluated Price
![Page 32: PRICE ANALY$I$ Presented by: Eric Heckelman March 27-28, 2000.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e415503460f94b32e6a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Adequate Price Competition
• No known, qualified supplier was unreasonably denied an opportunity to compete
• Low bidder not immune from competition– Calculation of “Price Variance” PV– PV = (higher bid $ - low bid $) / low bid $– e.g., Bidder A bid $80, Bidder B bids $100– then (100 - 80) / 80 = 20 /80 = 25% variance
• Lowest evaluated price objectively reasonable

Price Variance
• Low Bidder is Alturdyne at $21,310
• Second low RESPONSIVE bidder in Elbanna at $22,520
• Difference is……..– $1,210 (Elbanna’s bid minus Alturdyne’s bid)– $22,520 - $21,310 = $1,210
• Price Variance is………..– 6% (Difference divided by Alturdyne’s bid)– $1,210 / $21,310 = 0.06 or 6%
![Page 35: PRICE ANALY$I$ Presented by: Eric Heckelman March 27-28, 2000.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e415503460f94b32e6a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Price Variance
• What is an “acceptable” variance– Depends upon good or service– Buyers’ knowledge is key– If unfamiliar, Rule of Thumb 30%– Be careful with “Rule of Thumb”
• Vehicle buys - variance 1% - 2%
• 5% would be too high!
![Page 36: PRICE ANALY$I$ Presented by: Eric Heckelman March 27-28, 2000.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e415503460f94b32e6a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Price “Based On”Adequate Price Competition
• No “current” competition
• Use “recent” competition– Award made via prior competition determined fair
and reasonable– Market has not changed substantially – Similar quantities

“Givens”
• Information from file– Award Date June 1996– Ordered 300 @ $1,282.66 each– Price was documented “fair and reasonable”
• Solicitation / Quote– Projected award date of March 1997– Requirement for 300– Price quoted is $1,337.93 each– Effort in making signs = 15% labor & 85% material

• Labor Indices (Average Hourly Earning)
• Select “Fabricated Metal Products” index– Old Order
• July 1996 (order was June 1996)
• Index = $12.51
– New Order• May 1997 (projected order date is March 1997)
• Index = $12.78
– Calculate Labor Escalation Factor• New Index / Old Index
• 12.78 / 12.51 = 1.022

• Material Indices
• Select “Aluminum Mill Shapes” index – Old Order
• June 1996 (material indices listed monthly) • Index = 147.1
– New Order• March 1997• Index = 147.6
– Calculate Material Escalation Factor• New Index / Old Index• 147.6 / 147.1 = 1.003

Calculate Composite Escalation Factor
• Labor escalation factor is 1.022– What % of the effort / price is labor?
• 15%
– escalation factor X labor% = 1.022 X 0.15 = .1533
• Material escalation factor is 1.003– What % of the effort / price is material
• 85%
– escalation factor X mat’l% = 1.003 X 0.85 = .8526
• Composite factor = .1533 + .8526 = 1.0059

Complete and Compare
• Complete “Should Cost”– Old Unit Price X Composite Escalation Factor =
“Should Cost”– $1,282.66 X 1.0059 = $1,290.23
• Compare “Should Cost” to Quote– $1,290.23 - $1,337.93 = $47.70 difference– Calculate Variance
• Difference / “Should Cost” = Variance
• $47.70 / $1,290.23 = .03697 = 3.7%
– Determine the quote is fair and reasonable

• Use same escalation techniques
• Price that which is different
• Similar to “First Aid Kit / Sunscreen” example
• Pricing Class example - Exercise 14– CA Conservation Corps crew vehicle truck with new
“special” compartment– Use escalation techniques with “old order” of crew vehicle
truck as baseline– Price adding new “special” compartment - How?
• Buyer modify “should cost” for 5% extra labor cost• Technical Evaluation for material cost

Technical Evaluation / In-House Estimate
• Seek technical input as required
• Prepare written estimate– Independent estimate without respect to quote
• may have been developed during budgeting process
– Estimate that directly evaluates quote
• Determine estimated “should cost”
• Compare to quote
• Is quote “fair and reasonable”
• Tips: Document expertise of estimator and have estimator be specific in exceptions to bid
