As of July 2019, year-to-date post-separation withdrawls have included 910 annuities, totaling approximately 201.8 million. The TSP serves more than 5.7 million active and retired participants and beneficiaries and will grow significantly over the next five years. 2.

The award will be made on a competitive basis utilizing a best value source selection procedure. Offerors will first have to demonstrate that they meet minimum Industry Financial Rating Standards compliance. The Technical Proposal contains the following evaluation factors: (1) Financial Strength and Solvency, (2) Administrative Capability and Experience, and (3) Business Plan. Evaluation of the pricing portion will be based upon the offeror's proposed Annuity Payment Rate and 0.45% added to the monthly annuity index rate. 3. All information required for submission of a proposal is identified in the attached solicitation and attachments. The Agency anticipates award no later than January 1, 2020.
