The following instructions establish the acceptable minimum requirements for the format and content of your proposal. The Contracting Officer is the only individual authorized to legally commit the Government to the expenditure of public funds in connection with this requirement.

By submitting a proposal in response to this solicitation, it is understood that your proposal shall become a part of the official contract file.

Your attention is directed to the requirements for the submission of technical proposals, business proposals, and past performance information contained in Sections L.9, L.10, and L.11, of the solicitation. Your proposal must be submitted in accordance with these instructions.

The proposal must be prepared in three parts: a "Technical Proposal", a "Business Proposal" and "Past Performance Information." Each of these parts shall be separate and complete in itself so that the evaluation of one may be accomplished independently of the evaluation of the others.

1998)

This solicitation incorporates one or more solicitation provisions by reference, with the same force and effect as if they were given in full text. Upon request, the Contracting Officer will make their full text available. The offeror is cautioned that the listed provisions may include blocks that must be completed by the offeror and submitted with its quotation or offer.

M.3 AWARD WITHOUT DISCUSSIONS AND COMPETITIVE RANGE

DETERMINATIONS

The Government intends to evaluate proposals and award a contract without discussions with Offerors (except for clarifications as described in FAR 15.306(a)). Therefore, the Offeror's initial proposal should contain the Offeror's best terms from a cost or price and technical standpoint. The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer later determines them to be necessary. In the event discussions are held, a competitive range determination will be made. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

M.4 BASIS FOR AWARD

• Distance to the office is the most important criteria.

• Parking garage must have a secure and monitored entry and exit point by key or access card.

If this acquisition is governed by FAR Part 15, the process of approving an OCI mitigation plan and revisions to such a plan does not constitute discussions as described in FAR 15.306.
