The technical proposal will be evaluated based on the evaluation criteria stated in the RFP. When the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) uses a Best Value Trade-Off procurement, it is seeking to award a contract to the contractor that provides the greatest overall benefit in response to the requirement, not necessarily the one with the lowest price. This method allows for a tradeoff between non-cost factors and cost/price, and lets the Government accept a proposal that is not the lowest priced or the highest technically rated to achieve the best value. Evaluation Method: The project will be a negotiated procurement using the Best Value Trade-Off process to ensure a competitive, firm-fixed price contract. The solicitation will be available on or about 16 April 2026. The solicitation and all amendments for this acquisition will be posted on SAM.GOV, http://sam.gov/.
