The contract is structured with a base period from January 20, 2025, to January 19, 2026, followed by four one-year option periods extending through January 19, 2030. Key deliverables include maintaining a 100 percent overall fill rate and a turnover rate of 10 percent or less. Award selection is based on a best-value tradeoff, prioritizing technical capability and past performance over price. Technical evaluations focus on the contractor's ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel, while past performance is validated through questionnaires and CPARS data.
