The document presents the P.I.V.O.T. (Prices Include Variation Over Time) source selection and pricing methodology, developed by the Southwestern Division regional chief of contracting, David M. Curry. It addresses challenges stemming from continued COVID-19 market impacts affecting the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), including rising prices, increased acquisition timelines, and limited competition among contractors. The proposed PIVOT framework fosters competition while mitigating pricing risks by allowing bids to be adjusted over specified periods. PIVOT consists of seven steps, beginning with defining bidding periods, followed by establishing pricing weights, selecting scaling methods (percentage scaling, indexed pricing, or vendor autonomy), and articulating the evaluation process focused on a Total Adjusted Price (TAP). The methodology is designed for Best Value Trade Off (BVTO) source selections rather than lowest price bids, ensuring contractors can adjust their proposed prices over time based on market conditions. Next steps include pilot testing the approach with new contracts, extensive peer reviews, and ongoing contractor feedback sessions. Overall, PIVOT aims to enhance pricing flexibility and contractor participation, ensuring more robust competition in the government contracting landscape while adhering to regulatory frameworks.
