Because this Task Order is Firm-Fixed-Price, budget tracking is simpler than an EVM/IPMR cost-reimbursement program — the government pays the agreed price for defined deliverables, and the contractor bears cost-overrun risk internally rather than reporting cost variance to the government line-item by line-item.
This is the single biggest practical difference from a Cost-Plus program: FOPBA doesn't see Acme Federal Systems' internal cost detail here the way it would on an EVM contract — only whether CDRL deliverables are being met on schedule.
