Host Forest Dispatch Center. As described in B.6, socioeconomic status advantage will be given to those small business concerns identified in Block 10 of the SF-1449.

(1) In addition to the award evaluation factors in B.3, criteria have been developed for some categories of equipment to assess the advantages for dispatch priority. If no additional criteria are identified, lowest price awarded resources will be ranked highest on the dispatch list.

(2) Within each small business program category, priority will be given as shown below. The minimum daily guarantee and mileage will not be considered in the ranking. NOTE: For the above equipment there will be attributes identified on the dispatch priority list that may be required by the Government. These attributes will not be given points but if the attribute is specifically ordered by the Incident Management

Team, a vendor that offers the attribute on their equipment shall be given preference for the order. The attributes are listed at the end of each resource category below and will be identified as Attribute, not given points.

(2) Within each small business program category, as defined in Section B, Basis of Award, equipment will be dispatched based on the attributes that best meet the needs of the government.

Transports will be listed on the dispatch list according to the following formula:

((Rate Per Mile x 200 miles)*0.2)+((Minimum Daily Guarantee)*0.8).

(c) Advantages.

(1) Dozers/Tractor Plows: Information on the following advantages must be submitted by the contractor with their quote. The following criteria have been developed to assess the advantages for dispatch priority, and each advantage is given a point value.

The Transport Minimum Daily Guarantee will be included in the formula. The following is a list of the advantages and associated points for each category.
