Bill > HR5082

This bill, known as the "Best Price for Our Military Act of 2025", amends title 10 of the United States Code to modify regulations around cost and pricing data submissions in military contracting. Specifically, the bill eliminates a legal defense that contractors could previously use when submitting late or outdated cost and pricing data. Under the new provision, if a contractor submits updates to cost or pricing data after the contract price is agreed upon, and those updates are based on data that is more than 30 days old, they will no longer be able to use this as a defensive argument in contract negotiations or disputes. This change aims to ensure that the Department of Defense receives more current and accurate pricing information when entering into contracts, potentially helping to control costs and improve the transparency of military procurement processes.
