This section provides simple steps necessary to place an order under the BIO Assistance contract.

Step 1: Scope Determination

First, determine if the requirement is within scope of the BIO Assistance contract by reviewing the scope and requirements in the ID/IQ Performance Work Statement.

Step 2: Prepare Performance Work Statement (PWS) or Statement of Objectives (SOO)

Here are some salient points to consider when drafting your requirements:

• Scope of work to be performed

• Performance objectives, to include any Service Level Agreements specific to the order

• Management and Technical requirements

• Key Personnel Requirements

• Deliverables, if any

• Period of performance. Note the period of performance of task orders issued against the

ID/IQ may extend beyond the period of performance of the ID/IQ contract as long as the task order was awarded within the ID/IQ contract period of performance.

Step 3: Prepare the Request for Proposal (RFP)

Follow established DOI procedures for preparing an RFP, including any internal policies and procedures related to acquiring IT products and services. Consider the following:

• Estimate the value of the order. Recommend including language in the RFP which indicates the intent to seek additional discounts for orders.

• Evaluation Criteria. This will be specified within each individual order. For those determined to be evaluated based on best value determination, consider including some combination of technical capability, price, and/or past performance when crafting best value evaluation factors.

Step 4: Issue the RFP

Step 5: Evaluate the Proposal

Step 6: Prepare Award Documentation and Award the Order

Step 7: Send a copy of the Award

Send a copy of the award to the ID/IQ Contracting Officer Mr. Jarreau Vieira at Jarreau_vieira@ibc.doi.gov.
