Einheitspreis?
Explanation:
The term could be a piece of jargon peculiar to the company. However, the context suggests that Einheitspreis (standard price) could be what you are looking for.

neutral  Cilian O'Tuama: unlikely IMO, I've never seen Einheit abbreviated as EH (FWIW). It must be plural too (in den). I suggest Lorna asks the customer, she can't be expected to know

disagree  silvia glatzhofer: Wir würden so etwas in Ö nie Einheitspreis nennen, sondern eine Pauschale und Cilian hat Recht von wegen Plural. Frag den Kunden!

Einheitspreise = unit prices?


Explanation:
EHP has a number of definitions, one of which is found in the reference below. I think possibly a very broad view has been taken of "Einheitspreis", but it may apply to complete projects in this case. Any Austrian GNS out there to confirm this, or deny it??
