Latest Amendment: A discrepancy was noticed on the Source Selection Criteria document. This amendment serves as the correction to that document to ensure the criteria is clearly stated. See updated attachment 2 for updates. For ease of the use. Attachment 2 was updated to reflect the following verbiage on the selection process: Selection of firms for the A-E IDIQ contract will be held with at least three (3) of most highly qualified firms.

After evaluation and ranking of firms, request for further discussions/interviews will be submitted to the three (3) most highly qualified firms. After these interviews/discussions are held these top three firms will be ranked 1-3. A Request for Proposal will be issued to the top rated vendor and negotiations will occur if needed.

If a mutually satisfactory contract cannot be negotiated, or cannot be negotiated within a reasonable amount of time, the CO shall terminate negotiations with that firm and shall issue an RFP to, and enter into negotiations with, the next most highly qualified firm. This procedure shall continue until the appropriate quantity, as determined by the CO, of mutually satisfactory contracts has been negotiated.
