It specifies the order of importance as follows: Technical Capability (most important), followed by Past Performance and Price. Technical Capability will be assessed on the offeror’s ability to fulfill service requirements detailed in the Performance Work Statement (PWS) along with a clear labor mix. Past Performance evaluation focuses on the offeror's recent and relevant experiences, breaking it down into recency, relevancy, and quality, which contribute to an overall confidence assessment rating ranging from "Substantial Confidence" to "No Confidence."
