However, no more than one contract shall be awarded per geographic location. The VA, in its tradeoff, may consider the relative benefits and detriments of awarding a single contract to one offeror for multiple regions versus multiple small awards (one for each region) to separate offerors. The following factors, in descending order of importance, shall be used to evaluate offers: (1) Technical Approach with respect to the following elements (please note, while these are areas of importance, they are not subfactors and will not be rated individually).

The proposal has one or more weaknesses which are not offset by strengths. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high. Unacceptable Offer does not meet requirements and contains one or more deficiencies. Offer is not awardable. (2) Technical Capability with Respect to the following elements (please note, while these are areas of importance, they are not subfactors and will not be rated individually).

Confidence Based on the offeror's recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Limited Confidence Based on the offeror's recent/relevant performance record, the Government has little expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. No Confidence Based on the offeror's recent/relevant performance record, the Government has little expectations that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort. Unknown/Neutral Confidence No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror's performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (d) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award. (e) Award Based on Initial Offers: The Government intends to make award without discussions. Accordingly, offerors are encouraged to submit their initial offers based upon most favorable terms, prices, technical and other factors. The Department of Veterans Affairs may make contract award without further dialog with offerors regarding this solicitation. However, the Government reserves the right to eliminate all offerors, except those with the most realistic change of receiving the ultimate award, for any or all locations-based on evaluation of the factors above or to allow for efficient evaluation.
