Contracts for an unknown number of small public works projects over a fixed period of time also known as “indefinite quantity, indefinite frequency”. Unit price contracts are not associated with a particular project, do not guarantee any amount of work, and do not establish a total dollar value (although the contract may cap the dollar value at a certain level over the life of the contract). Instead, the agency agrees to pay a defined “unit price” for certain types of anticipated (but unplanned) work or trades over a certain time period.
