The Government intends to make a single award resulting from the solicitation to the responsible offeror whose submissions, which comply with the instructions and conform to the solicitation, will be the most advantageous BEST VALUE to the Government. Best value will be determined based on an integrated assessment of the evaluation factors for award. The following factors shall be used to evaluate the offers: (FACTOR 1) technical capability of the items and services offered to meet the minimum needs of the Government based on examination of technical approach narrative, quality assurance plan, facilities and equipment, personnel staffing, safety plan, and management plan; (FACTOR 2) Past Performance (see FAR 52.212-1(b)(10)); (FACTOR 3) Cost; and Small Business Subcontracting Plan (FACTOR 4). These factors are listed in descending order of importance. All non-cost factors, when combined, are more important than cost; however, cost becomes more of a deciding factor of importance when Offerors receive similar ratings for the other factors. Factors 1, 2, and 3 will be used for a tradeoff process. General statements, that the offeror can or will comply with the requirements, that standard procedures will be used, that well known techniques will be used, or that paraphrases the RFQ's specifications in whole or in part, will not constitute compliance with the mandatory requirements concerning the content of the technical proposal.
