We are trying to get a maintenance BPA in place for a Generator that supplies emergency power to our SCIF. We put out a SOW, held a site visit and got the quotes back. They were for 2 line items one for the actual maintenance contract and another for emergency calls. We didn't specify how we were awarding this BPA and now we have a problem. One vendor has a lower line 1 but a higher line 2 so I am at a stand still.
Our question is how do you specify a basis for award on something like this where the contract amount will be a fixed price for the year and the service call price will be an hourly price?
Also is there any way to salvage the solicitation we are currently working on?
We highly encourage comments, examples, feedback and continued discussion.
