1 BASIS FOR CONTRACT AWARD: This solicitation is for a Firm Fixed Price Contract. The Government intends to award a single contract to a qualified Small Business Offeror deemed responsible in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), whose quote conforms to all solicitation requirements and is judged to represent the Best Value to the Government in accordance with the evaluation scheme set out in this solicitation. The award will be made based on the lowest price, technically acceptable offer IAW FAR 15.101-2. Best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price, with appropriate consideration given to the two (2) evaluation factors: Technical and Price.

2 EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD: The evaluation factors are (1) Responsiveness, (2) Technical and (3) Price. To arrive at a Best Value decision, the Contracting Officer will integrate the evaluation of Responsiveness, Technical and Price as set out in the solicitation.

The overarching evaluation approach for all factors and subfactors is to determine the acceptability of the response. The quote will be evaluated to determine whether each requirement has been addressed in the quote in order to meet the acceptability standards described in the solicitation.
