Travel is required and cannot be determined in advance. A surge in requirements could happen at any time and work could also slow down requiring a reduction in manpower. The Government will provide an estimate for materials that could be required; travel; and a level of effort/categories of labor needed to support this effort. Because of the changing requirements, historical data cannot be used to provide firm requirements that would enable a vendor to provide a firm fixed priced proposal.
