The invoice must identify the unit price and the number of units received (no contractor inventory or cost verification required). Time and Materials: the County agrees to pay the Contractor for the amount of labor time spent by the Contractor's employees and subcontractors to perform the work (number of hours times hourly rate), and for materials and equipment used in the project (cost of materials plus the contractor's mark up).

As a general business practice, these contracts include back-up documentation of costs; invoices would include number of hours worked and billing rate by position (and not company (or subcontractor) timekeeping or payroll records), material or equipment invoices, and other reimbursable documentation for the project.
