Contractors will submit fully burdened fixed labor rates on the provided CLIN pricing sheet, with Service Contract Act wage minimums and health and welfare benefits applicable to all guard positions. The single award will be made to the responsible offeror providing the best value to the government, considering technical evaluation factors, past performance, and pricing.
