Evaluation criteria:

(a) An award will be made to the responsible quoter whose quotation offers the “Best Value to the Government” on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis. Technical acceptability is defined as the quote which meets the required services outlined in the statement of work documentation that provides the best value at the total lowest evaluated price. The following factors shall be used to evaluate quotes:

• Technical Acceptability o Technical Approach - Approach to performing the required tasks within the specified area and period of performance. The quote shall include a narrative explaining how the project will be carried out in terms of field work, research, analysis procedures, and project deliverables.

o Experience of Key Personnel – Quote shall include a list of project personnel with each person’s qualifications and description of relevant experience with relevant species, corresponding habitat types, and survey methods.

• Price
