If concurrent multiple contract awards are made, task orders will be allocated based upon the Contracting Officer's determination of the special qualifications of the firms; the nature of the work involved in the task order; and the immediacy of the work and availability of the firm. Distribution of the work will be a secondary consideration. In the final selection process, the most highly qualified firms may be interviewed. Final products will be high quality technical reports on the results of the work delivered to the US ARMY Corps of Engineers. The contract period will be for one (1) base period with the Government having the option to renew for four (4) additional option periods.
