This project is located at 11 Forest Lane Santa Fe, NM, 87508, in the county of Sandoval. The Government intends to award a firm-fixed price contract. A best value concept will be applied for evaluation of offers for this procurement. The best value approach provides the opportunity to select an offeror who is not necessarily the lowest-priced or the highest technically-ranked. The Forest Service will select the proposal that represents the best value based on the evaluation of technical factors and price. Technical factors consist of past performance and Contractor Capability. Technical factors when combined are approximately of equal importance when compared to cost or price. Therefore, the offeror's proposal should contain the offeror's best terms.
