(1) The Government will develop a price estimate. If the estimate does not exceed $15,000 USD, the Government will follow the procedures in paragraph (2) below. If the estimate exceeds $15,000 USD, the Government will follow the procedures in paragraph

(3) below.

(2) Orders not exceeding $15,000 USD - The Government will select a contractor for issuance of the order on a rotating basis. This decision will be based on the Government's best interests, which may include factors such as price, availability, past performance, and unique qualifications which meet the level of quality required.

(3) Orders exceeding $15,000 USD - Unless one of the exceptions in paragraph (4) below applies, the Government will:

Make its award based on comparisons of price, availability, past performance, and unique qualifications which meet the level of quality required to meet the Government’s security and logistical requirements. Award will be made to the lowest priced, technically acceptable hotel.

Regardless of whether the procedures in paragraph (1) or (2) above were followed, selection of contractors shall not be protestable to GAO under FAR subpart 33.1, except on the grounds that the order increases the scope, period, or maximum value of the contract.

(4) Exceptions to the procedures in paragraph (3) above:

(a) The agency need for the required services is of such urgency that providing such competitive opportunity would result in unacceptable delays;

(c) It is necessary to place an order to satisfy a minimum guarantee.
