Risk Analysis: Comparing Different Contract Types,

Abstract

This paper presents a brief description of how the results from a cost risk analysis can be used to distribute the risk in a contract between the government and the contractor. The main contract types discussed are Firm Fixed Price (FFP) and Fixed Price Incentive (FPI). Other contract types may be structured around a risk analysis but are not discussed here.
