The IGCE is the U.S. Government’s estimate of costs that the government may incur in the performance of a project or program. It serves as the basis for budgeting of funds during acquisition planning; it provides the basis for comparing costs or prices proposed by offerors/applicants; and it serves as an objective basis for determining price reasonableness during acquisition.
