objectives when negotiating Government contracts.

215.407-5, Estimating systems, and the related contract clause at 
252.215-7002, Cost Estimating System Requirements, to determine if a 
contractor has an acceptable system for generating cost estimates, and 
to monitor the correction of any deficiencies.
