2. SELECTION CRITERIA: The selection criteria for this particular contract are listed below in

DESCENDING order of importance. Criteria A-F are PRIMARY. Criteria G and H are SECONDARY and will be used ONLY as "tie-breakers" among technically equal firms. Primary Criteria will be assigned a rating from “outstanding” to “unsatisfactory,” based on the risk to the Government that the Offeror will successfully perform that evaluated Criteria. An overall rating will also be applied to the proposal submission using the same rating scale. Up to five (5) most highly qualified offerors will be requested to submit a proposal for negotiations.
