All Task Orders issued against this contract will be awarded on a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) basis, derived from the fixed prices established in the base IDIQ contract. The Government will evaluate offers and make an award based on the best value to the Government. The evaluation will assess the fairness and reasonableness of the offeror's proposed fully-burdened hourly rates for CLINs 0001-0004.
