immediate availability of the dedicated resources and facilities to fulfill the requirements. The offeror must address its approach to quality control, time management, and organization in accordance with Section III, Tasks of the Statement of Work (SOW).

2. Past Performance This criterion will be used to evaluate the Offerors Past Performance in supporting similar work as described in the SOW.

3. Price The Government may use various price analysis techniques and procedures to ensure a fair and reasonable price.

The Government will make award to the responsible offeror whose offer conforms to the request for quotation (RFQ) and presents the best overall value to the Government considering the criteria 1 through 3 above. All factors, 1 through 3 above, when considered together establish a base for selecting the offeror which represents the best value to the Government.

Technical Quality is more important than Past Performance. When combined, Technical Quality and Past Performance are significantly more important than Price.
