The Government will award a purchase order resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose quotation conforms to the solicitation and represents the Best Value to the Government, price and other factors considered.

1. Delivery Lead Time:

Threshold: Quotations must propose a delivery lead time of 100 days between order placement and delivery to be considered for award.

Comparative Assessment: For those offerors meeting the 100-day threshold, the Government will evaluate shorter delivery lead times more favorably. A faster delivery lead time is considered of higher value than price, and the Government reserves the right to select a quotation with a shorter delivery time even if it carries a higher price.
