Upon arriving at the security office, the offeror should call the Business Opportunities Office in order to obtain an escort. An offeror is advised to allow sufficient time to complete delivery of hand-carried proposals. Since the length of time necessary to gain access to the Business Opportunities Office varies based on a number of circumstances, it is recommended that an offeror arrive at the installation at least one hour prior to the time that the solicitation closes to allow for security processing and to secure an escort. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ADVISORY IS A SUGGESTION

OPPORTUNITIES OFFICE IF IT ARRIVES ONE HOUR BEFORE THE PROPOSAL IS DUE. Ultimately, it is the offeror's responsibility to ensure that its proposal is received at the correct location at the correct time.

If the firm fits these criteria, award will be made to them. If not, the Government will review each subsequent technically acceptable offer until one is identified that does meet the criteria, in which case award will be made to that firm.

The Government anticipates that numerous offerors will submit proposals on this solicitation.

During this preliminary evaluation, all offerors Product Demonstration Models (PDMs) and proposed prices will be evaluated. Certain offerors may be excluded from further consideration at this point, if their PDM ratings and/or offered prices are not competitive when compared with PDM ratings and prices proposed by other offerors. The remaining offers will then be evaluated for the remaining technical and past performance evaluation factors. After the completion of this review, the contracting officer will determine whether to establish a competitive range and enter into negotiations, or to award without discussions.

4. The Government reserves the right to conduct negotiations with a competitive range group of offerors from among firms with most highly rated offers. If negotiations are conducted, award will be made to the offeror (based on final proposal revision) that is the best value to the Government, has a passing PDM or better, and is determined responsible and compliant with the solicitation terms and conditions based on an “integral assessment of PDM, Past Performance and Price".
