Forward Pricing Rates Brochure (FPRB)
Government Standards
Reviewed by forProject Technology - updated Sep 2026
Quick definition: A Forward Pricing Rates Brochure (FPRB) is a document summarizing the Forward Pricing Rates Agreements currently in effect between a contractor and its U.S. Government customers.
The FPRB consolidates negotiated rates from one or more FPRAs into a single reference document, so government program offices and contracting officers can quickly see what rates apply. It's essentially the published summary of agreements that are otherwise negotiated and documented separately.
Why it matters
Having a single brochure of current forward pricing rates saves time and reduces confusion across multiple government contracts and program offices, since everyone can reference the same agreed rates instead of tracking down individual agreements.
