Final Proposal Revision(FPR)

The last opportunity for offerors to revise their proposals during a negotiated procurement, typically after discussions.

Overview

A Final Proposal Revision (FPR) is the closing submission in a negotiated procurement. After the government holds discussions and identifies deficiencies or weaknesses, offerors submit a FPR incorporating improvements. The government then evaluates FPRs and makes the award decision.

Why It Matters in GovCon

FPRs are critical — they are the final chance to strengthen your proposal before award. Strategic revisions based on discussion feedback can shift the competitive outcome. Missing the FPR deadline typically results in exclusion.

Key Details

  • Timing: FPR is due after discussions; the solicitation specifies the deadline.
  • Scope: Offerors may revise technical, past performance, or price volumes as allowed.
  • No Further Revisions: After FPR submission, the evaluation is typically based solely on the FPR.
  • Clarifications vs. Discussions: FPR follows discussions; clarification-only procurements may not have an FPR.
