Section 1, The Schedule Section 5, Representations and Certifications Additional Information as required in Section 4. The U.S. Government intends to award a contract to the responsible offeror representing best value using comparative evaluation authorized under FAR 13.106-2(b) (3). A comparative evaluation is defined as the act of comparing two or more offers in response to the RFQ.

The item-by-item comparison is performed by comparing each offer directly to one another to determine which provides the best value to the Department. Comparative evaluation is NOT a low price technically acceptable (LPTA) or trade-off process. Prospective offers must still meet basic standards for responsibility at FAR 9.104 and solicitation compliance to be eligible for award.

We intend to award a contract based on initial quotations, without holding discussions, although we may hold discussions with companies if there is a need to do so. Please be advised that firms need to be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) www.sam.gov before the contract is awarded. If you require any additional information, please contact the Procurement Section via e-mail LisbonProcure@state.gov
