The remaining factors (C, D, E and F) are listed in descending order of importance with Factors A and B being significantly more important than factors C, D, E and F. Notwithstanding any other provisions of these specifications concerning the method of award, the best value tradeoff process will be used in this acquisition with award made, as a whole, to the offeror whose quote conforms to the solicitation and has been evaluated as most advantageous to the Government with appropriate consideration given to the evaluation factors: Management Plan, Quality Control Program, Past Performance, Equipment, and Safety Program.
