Pricing:

Pace Systems will evaluate and consider providing “not to exceed” project pricing on the premise that NU provides clear and concise information related to site conditions, scope of work, bill of materials, project specifications, and overall services required to achieve a given project objective.

Orders of magnitude will also be considered when providing not to exceed numbers as well. Pace will provision accurate, “not to exceed” proposal based on the aforementioned information. Under certain circumstances, Pace will provide any credit back for the work performed where the total project cost is under the originally proposed price.
