Quote submissions are due by 12:00pm EST on September 16th, 2026 and must be

submitted via email to the Contracting Officer, peter.psanis@uscg.mil Evaluation:

Factor 1 – Technical Experience Vendor must provide evidence of required experience

as indicated in the SOW. Evaluation: Factor 2 – Relevant Experience It is highly

desirable that offerors include relavent experience related to the SOW. The

information provided in the Relevant Experience submission must be sufficiently

detailed so that the Government can determine whether the project(s) demonstrate

relevant experience of similar scope, size, and complexity of this acquisition.

Evaluation: Factor 3 – Price The Government will evaluate the Offeror’s price quote for

completeness, accuracy, compliance, and to determine price reasonableness. Basis of

Award: This procurement is being conducted pursuant to FAR 19.5.01 as a small

business set-aside. The Government intends to award a single firm-fixed price task

order to the Offeror whose quote represents the best value to the Government.

Comparative evaluations (comparing quotes to each other) will be used to select the

Offeror that is best suited and provides the best value based on the following three (3)

factors in descending order of importance: Factor 1 - Technical Experience, Factor 2 -

Relevant Experience, and Factor 3 - Price. The Government will use the tradeoff

process to make a determination of best value. This means that the Government will

consider issuing an award to other than the lowest priced Offeror, other than the

highest technically and relevant experience evaluated Offeror based on an assessment

and tradeoff between non-price factors (Factor 1 and 2) and price (Factor 3). The nonprice

factors are more important than price. However, the closer the quote’s non-price

evaluations are to one another, the more significant the price factor becomes in

determining the best value to the Government. This is only a request for quotation. No

guarantee of award is made or implied. The Government reserves the right to cancel

this solicitation, either before or after the closing date.
