I don't, I'm trying to avoid the government just setting the price, which is what is usually meant in this area when they talk about government "negotiating" the price.

Maybe that's your problem with this issue. That's not what happens. In general they spec an item and put it out for bid and, all else being equal, take the best price. Not hugely different than any other buyer...
