Common use of Proposal Support Clause in Contracts

Proposal Support. For each Program Opportunity, in which the Prime elects to participate, the Prime is expected to submit proposals to the Customer, to identify the other Parties as subcontractors for the applicable portions of the work contained therein (including their respective responsibilities), and to identify the proposed contractual relationship of the Parties. For each Program Opportunity in which a Party elects to participate, it is anticipated that each participating Party will furnish, as reasonably required for incorporation into any final proposal, all proposal material pertinent to the work identified for the respective Parties, including but not limited to manuscripts, artwork, and if required by the Customer, cost or pricing data, as appropriate. It is also anticipated that each participating Party will furnish qualified personnel who will cooperate together in drafting a proposal and will work to ensure that proposal inputs are provided in accordance with the proposal schedule and requirements, as determined by the Prime. Although no Party is obligated to produce a proposal under this Agreement, if a Party prepares a proposal for any Program Opportunity, that proposal may only be used in a manner consistent with the purposes and requirements of this Agreement. If a Party prepares a proposal, that Party will exert reasonable efforts to cause the selection of the Prime and the acceptance of the other Parties as subcontractors and will continue to exert reasonable efforts toward this objective throughout any and all negotiations concerning a proposed contract or subcontract which may follow the submission of such proposal or proposals. In the event that the Prime should be requested or is presented the opportunity to make oral or written presentations to interested Customers concerning the Program, the Parties will support such presentations as reasonably requested by the Prime, for those areas that relate to the Parties’ respective efforts. Unless funded by the Customer, each Party will separately bear all costs, risks and liabilities incurred by it arising out of its obligations and efforts under this Agreement during pre-proposal and proposal efforts. No Party shall have any right to any reimbursement, payment or compensation of any kind from another Party during the period up to the award of the prime contract. The Prime will have the sole right to decide the form and content of all documents submitted to the Customer; however, the Prime will afford each of the other Parties the opportunity to review the form and content of its respective sections of the proposal and will make reasonable efforts to ensure that the other Parties’ data is accurately portrayed. Each of the other Parties will offer the Prime advice and assistance, and will prepare the substantive content of its respective portion(s) of the proposal, as identified in Article 2.0. The Prime will provide each of the other Parties a copy of the proposal which was submitted to the Customer, less any Proprietary Information, including but not limited to cost or pricing data. Overall marketing, sales, business and technical strategies in furtherance of this Agreement shall be reviewed at least annually by the Team Eagle Eye Steering Committee for updating and modification as mutually determined by the Parties.
