The evaluation of offers received in response to the solicitation will use a tiered or cascading order of precedence.

The contracting officer (1) Solicits offers from both small and other than small business concerns that will be evaluated in the following tier order: (a) service-disabled veteran-owned small business (SDVOSB); (b) veteran-owned small business (VOSB); (c) all other small business concerns; (d) other than small business. (2) If an award or a sufficient number of awards cannot be made at the first tier, evaluation of offers will proceed at the next lower tier until an award or a sufficient number of awards can be made. The proposed contract action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit. Interested persons may submit offers, and all eligible offers received prior to 1:00 PM PDT September 7th, 2017 will be considered by the Government. The NAICS code is 339112 and the size standard is 500 Employees.
