About this file
This document is an Evaluation Factors for Award attachment for a Nonappropriated Fund (NAFI) solicitation for special audits under the Public Accountant Contract Audit Program (PACA), effective 03 November 2026.
The NAFI intends to award up to three Nonappropriated Fund Purchasing Agreements (NPAs) to responsible offerors whose quotes are determined to be Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). Master agreement placement is based on meeting all technical requirements and having the lowest total evaluated prices. Following initial NPA placement, the NAFI reserves the unilateral right to award individual financial and performance audits to any of the successful prime contractors based on best value and overall benefit, considering factors such as contractor resource availability, specialized program familiarity, geographical alignment, performance history, and optimal pricing for specific tasks. The NAFI is not obligated to assign audits to a specific contractor and may rotate or distribute tasking accordingly.
Technical acceptability is evaluated on a Pass/Fail basis and requires offerors to submit a complete Comprehensive Statement of Work (CSOW) demonstrating a comprehensive audit approach without ambiguous responses. A strict subcontracting prohibition applies—proposals featuring subcontractor labor, joint ventures, or 1099 consultants receive an automatic "Unacceptable" rating. Offerors must explicitly declare in their technical response whether they are willing to travel overseas to locations listed in Attachment 12 or wish to restrict performance to CONUS only; a CONUS-only restriction does not disqualify bidders from master NPA placement but will govern task-order routing. Past performance is assessed as Acceptable or Unacceptable based on recent and relevant experience, with any references involving subcontracted or non-prime labor disqualifying the bidder from master contract eligibility.

ATTACHMENT 06 – EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD (SPECIAL
AUDITS)
Public Accountant Contract Audit Program (PACA) - Special Audits
03 November 2026
1.0 BASIS FOR MASTER CONTRACT AWARD
The NAFI intends to award up to three (3) Nonappropriated Fund Purchasing Agreements (NPAs) from this solicitation to the responsible offerors whose quotes, conforming to the RFQ, are determined to be the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA). Initial master agreement placement will be based on meeting all technical requirements and having the lowest total evaluated prices. All technically acceptable offers will be evaluated on a Pass/Fail basis.
2.0 DELIVERY ORDER ROTATION AND BEST VALUE PLACEMENT
Following the placement of the up to three (3) master NPAs, the NAFI reserves the unilateral right to award individual financial and performance audits to any of the successful prime contractors based on the best value and overall benefit to the NAFI. The NAFI is not obligated to assign audits to a specific contractor and may rotate or distribute tasking based on factors including: contractor resource availability, specialized program familiarity, geographical alignment, performance history, and optimal pricing for that specific task.
3.0 TECHNICAL ACCEPTABILITY CRITERIA
To achieve a rating of 'Acceptable' under the Technical factor, the offeror's proposal must satisfy all requirements of the Statement of Objectives (SOO) and Instructions to Contractors (ATCH 01), specifically:
- Complete CSOW: Narrative demonstrating a comprehensive approach to performing the specialized audits without ambiguous responses.
- Subcontracting Prohibition: Strict compliance with the subcontractor ban. Proposals featuring subcontractor labor, joint ventures, or 1099 consultants will receive an automatic rating of 'Unacceptable'.
- Overseas Travel Declaration: Offerors must explicitly state in their technical response if they are willing to travel overseas to the locations listed in Attachment 12, or if they wish to restrict performance to CONUS-only . A CONUS-only restriction will not disqualify the bidder from the master NPA placement but will govern task-order routing.
Rating Description
ACCEPTABLE Quote clearly meets all master technical requirements.
UNACCEPTABLE
Quote fails to meet the technical requirements or attempts to utilize subcontracted labor.
4.0 PAST PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
Past Performance will be assessed as Acceptable or Unacceptable based on recent and relevant experience. Any references submitted that involve subcontracted or non-prime labor will not be considered and will disqualify the bidder from master contract eligibility.
