Hi Folks,
We are looking to award several BPAs and use the same RFQ [emphasis added] to then evaluate schedule contract holders (those selected for award of a respective agreement) and award an initial order as a means of consolidating the award processes. The evaluation criteria for the order would be similar to that of the agreement, but include key personnel as a factor. Again, this would be achieved through a single RFQ. Has anyone employed a similar two-step approach before? If so, might you have any tips or helpful references?
Much appreciated.

That process has been used numerous times in awarding multiple ID/IQ contracts and initial orders. I can’t remember seeing it for MAS BPAs but I’m sure it has. Just clearly spell everything in your RFQ. Have several independent people look it over to be certain it’s perfectly clear before issuing it.
