All lodging rates must not exceed $275.00 per night excluding taxes, and the contractor must submit a signed Hotel Attestation Form confirming no auxiliary or vendor exclusivity fees will be billed to the government.

Payment will be processed through WAWF using DoDAAC F87700, and no government funds are obligated for the lodging block, which is paid by attendees via government travel cards. The award will go to the technically acceptable offeror with the lowest total evaluated price, combining fixed-price services and the calculated cost of the lodging block, with no trade-offs permitted between technical merit and cost.
