The FAA has appointed an Source Evaluation Team (SET) who will evaluate each response received and make a selection of qualified offerors based on the evaluation criteria established in this SIR. The SIR evaluation process may involve face-to-face negotiations with one or more offerors. All offerors that are eliminated from the competition will be notified in writing. Written responses to this SIR are due by close of business (12:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time) on Sept. 26, 2011. TIERED EVALUATION.
