About this file
This document contains evaluation instructions for a federal contract solicitation using a Lowest Priced Technically Acceptable (LPTA) award basis in accordance with RFO Part 12. The Government will evaluate quotes using two primary factors: technical capabilities (non-price) and price, with the contract awarded to the responsible quoter whose conforming quote is most advantageous to the Government at the lowest acceptable price.
Technical evaluation uses a pass/fail scoring methodology, where a "Pass" indicates the quote clearly meets minimum solicitation requirements and a "Fail" indicates it does not. The technical evaluator conducts this assessment. Separately, the Contract Specialist (CS) evaluates price by assessing the total cost breakdown for reasonableness using the quoter's cost breakdown. The evaluation process begins with the CS receiving all quotes, reviewing them for compliance with solicitation instructions, and conducting a price evaluation. The CS then notifies the technical evaluator of the lowest priced quote. The technical evaluator performs the pass/fail evaluation to determine if the quote meets Statement of Work requirements. If the lowest priced quote is deemed technically unacceptable, the next lowest priced quote proceeds to technical evaluation, continuing this sequence until the LPTA quote is identified.

The CS will receive all quotes and review them for compliance according to the instructions listed in the Solicitation. The CS will then perform a price evaluation. After the price evaluation, the CS will notify the Technical Evaluator (TE) which is the lowest priced quote. The TE will conduct a pass/fail evaluation to determine whether the quote meets the requirements of the SOW. If the lowest priced quote is deemed technically unacceptable, the next lowest priced quote will be evaluated by the TE until the LPTA quote is reached.
