Overview
The purpose of this course is to provide insight into the processes associated with conducting price analyses and to discuss tools and techniques that can be used when conducting such analyses.

FAR 15 requires that appropriate cost or price analyses of proposals be conducted in order to determine if those proposals present prices that are fair and reasonable.  Although FAR identifies 7 price analyses techniques that may be used, it does not discuss how to exactly to use them.  Over his 35 years of performing price analyses and teaching others how to do them, Jeff White has developed a number of innovative applications of these price analysis techniques.  This session is designed to provide the attendees with an opportunity to learn about these innovations with the expectation that they will be able to use these approaches themselves.
