FPIF can work too, but FP-EPA is definitely the go-to.

I’m leaning towards Fixed-Price-Incentive-Fee contracts, but I need to double-check the definitions to be certain.

I'm a little confused on this one. I was considering A. Fixed-Price-Incentive-Fee contracts (FPIF), but now I'm not sure. I'll have to review my notes on contract types again before deciding.

Okay, I've got it! The answer has to be B. Fixed Price with Economic Price Adjustment contracts (FP-EPA). That's the perfect contract type when the seller's performance lasts for years, to account for changes in costs and market conditions.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I was thinking maybe C. Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee contracts (CPFF) could work too, since the seller's costs could fluctuate a lot over a long period. I'll have to think this through a bit more.

I think the answer is B. Fixed Price with Economic Price Adjustment contracts (FP-EPA) seem like the best fit for a long performance period, since they allow for adjustments to the price over time.

Okay, I think the key here is that the question is specifically asking about updating the SFTP password. That sounds like it would be in the Security section of the setup, so I'm going to go with that.

You guys are overthinking this. The answer is obviously B) Fixed Price with Economic Price Adjustment. It's the only one that specifically mentions 'long-term' in the question. Duh!

I'd have to go with D) Time and Material contracts (T&M). That way the seller can just bill for the actual time and materials used, no matter how long the project takes. Seems like the easiest option to me.
