Incremental funding may be used if the total task order is awarded and the dollar amount of the work is more than the client has available at the desired start time. Pricing for the project is totaled and assigned on the task, but the pricing is charged incrementally as it becomes available. The overall scope of work and pricing does not change from the original proposal. Incremental funds are added by modifications, but modifications may not extend the period of performance or increase the total dollar value of the task. The basic task and any modifications must stay within scope.
