Jurisdiction F includes the following states: Alaska, Arizona, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington and Wyoming.

Accordingly, the Contracting Officer will seek to award to the vendor whose proposal represents the best solution to CMS’s needs at a fair and reasonable price. Trade-offs may be considered, where applicable, affording the most advantageous balance of cost and technical factors as defined in the forthcoming solicitation. Award will be made to the Offeror whose proposal offers the best overall value to the Government using FAR 15.101-1 trade-off processes which, “…allows the Government to consider award to other than the lowest cost Offeror or other than the highest technically rated Offeror.” CMS anticipates releasing a solicitation for Jurisdiction F on or about March 31, 2017. The contract will include a base year plus six (6) one-year options. The anticipated proposal due date is June 1, 2017 with an anticipated award date of January 31, 2018.
