The estimated time of performance will be a base year period of three (3) years, with two (2) one-year option periods. BOA's are designed to provide enhanced contracting opportunities to qualified firms under the 8(a) program serviced by the U. S. Small Business Administration (SBA) District Offices. The BOA is not a contract but a written instrument of understanding negotiated between the DHS-FLETC and the 8(a) firm to facilitate the expeditious acquisition of covered services, if and when ordered. The contractor will receive contract clauses, provisions, certifications, terms and conditions, which will apply to the extent referenced therein and according to the dollar amount of each BOA and shall constitute a separate contract with the issuance of a task order. On an annual basis, the DHS-FLETC and the Small Business Administration Headquarters will review the continued need for this agreement in light of (a) usefulness and need for service and (b) the effectiveness of individual contractors. When the DHS-FLETC has a specific work requirement suitable for accomplishment under the BOA, they will provide written plans and specifications, or in some cases a design concept only, to the contractors for submission of a proposal.

The Contracting Officer, will reserve the right to award subsequent task orders using one of the following methods: Tradeoff (aka Best Value); Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA); or Price only. When awarding using Tradeoff or LPTA, Contracting Officer may consider factors such as Past Performance, Technical Qualifications, Management Approach and Price. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to proceed with task order procurement on a sole source basis, or to compete an action among select BOA holders, whichever is deemed to be in the best interest of the Government. The Contractor will be required to furnish a Bid Bond and Performance and Payment Bond for each Task Order over $100,000.00. There is no assurance from the BOA of a steady stream of work.
