BASIS FOR AWARD

This award selection will be conducted using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procedures. To be eligible for award, a proposal must meet all technical requirements, conform to all required terms and conditions, and include all information required. All non-price evaluation factors must be rated at "ACCEPTABLE" in order to be eligible for award. An "UNACCEPTABLE" rating in any factor will result in the proposal being rated "UNACCEPTABLE" unless corrected through discussions. A proposal rating of "UNACCEPTABLE" makes a proposal ineligible for award. Since the LPTA methodology prohibits trade-offs, all evaluation factors and sub-factors are equally important. Proposals are evaluated for acceptability but not ranked using the non- price factors. A price evaluation will be performed for all offerors and proposals will be ranked from lowest to highest price based on the Total Proposed

Price (TPP) provided by the offeror on the price schedule sheet. Next, an evaluation of each factor and, subsequently, the overall proposal will be performed beginning with the lowest priced proposal. Award will be made to the lowest evaluated priced proposal meeting the acceptability standards for the non-price factors. The Government intends to award a contract without conducting discussions; therefore, the initial proposal shall conform to the solicitation requirements and should contain the best offer from a technical and price perspective.

Please see the attached technical evaluation factors for required documentation to be submitted with your proposal. Any questions regarding this solicitation shall be requested before March 5, 2025 before 4:30 pm CST; in writing by email to Ms. Erin Doering at
