APG S3CoE FY19 Q~2 Symposium Topic:Value Adjusted Total Evaluated Price (VATEP)

The Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground hosted a symposium focused on the Value Adjusted Total Evaluated Price (VATEP) methodology on February 6, 2019. This event, organized by the Source Selection Support Center of Excellence (S3CoE), aimed to provide both government and industry participants with detailed information regarding VATEP without serving as a formal solicitation. The symposium included presentations and provided a comprehensive summary designed to enhance understanding of this evaluation process, which is relevant to government contracting practices. Attendance at the symposium was voluntary and did not obligate participants to submit proposals or abstracts for any current or future contracts. Additionally, the government did not offer reimbursement for any expenses incurred in relation to participation. The event supported transparency and education in procurement processes but should not be construed as a promise of contract award. The point of contact for more information was provided, and related materials such as the symposium summary and slides were made available to interested parties.
