Both parties shall presume that field overhead costs through the proposed contract duration are inclusive in the offered price for the contract.
BASIS FOR AWARD:
The Government will conduct a comparative evaluation of quotes submitted in response to this solicitation, which meet the requirements in accordance with the factors listed above.
It is the Government s intent to award one (1) firm-fixed price contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer, conforming to the solicitation, is fair and reasonable, and has been determined to be the most advantageous to the Government, non-price, price, and other factors considered. The proposals must conform to the requirements of solicitation and represent the Best Value to the Government.
All evaluation factors other than cost or price, when combined, are significantly more important than cost or price. As differences in factor ratings and relative advantages and disadvantages become less distinct, difference in price may become the discriminating factor in determining the most advantageous offer. Conversely, as differences in price become less distinct, differences in ratings and relative advantages and disadvantages between offers are determinative.
Intent for No Discussions: Offerors are hereby advised that the Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without conducting discussions with offerors. However, the Government reserves the right to contact Offerors and/or hold discussions if the Contracting Officer determines them to be necessary. Offerors are cautioned that discussions may not be conducted, and Offerors should not assume that they will have an opportunity to revise their proposals after submission.
