This government file outlines the evaluation criteria for a federal acquisition, specifically an Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract for Rapid Development Integration Facility (RDIF) support. The selection process uses a Past Performance Price Tradeoff (PPT) where Past Performance is significantly more important than Price, though Price will substantially influence the decision. Proposals will be evaluated on Technical Capability (pass/fail for Live Task Order and Management of IDIQ subfactors), Past Performance (recency, relevancy, and quality leading to a confidence assessment), and Price (completeness, reasonableness, unbalanced pricing, and Total Evaluated Price calculation). The government intends to award one contract without discussions but reserves the right to hold them, and grossly deficient or non-compliant proposals may be excluded.
