The Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if the Contracting Officer, in his/her sole discretion, later determines them to be necessary or appropriate.
6. The Government reserves the right to create or not to create a competitive range. If the Contracting Officer determines that the number of proposals that would otherwise be in the competitive range exceeds the number at which an efficient competition can be conducted, the Contracting Officer may limit the number of proposals in the competitive range to the greatest number that will permit an efficient competition among the most highly rated proposals.

Award will be made to the responsible offeror whose offer will provide best value to the government based on Technical Acceptability, Past Performance and Price. Additionally, as part of price evaluation, the Government will evaluate its option to extend services (see FAR Clause 52.217-8) by calculating the price for six months of performance using the monthly pricing from the offeror's final option period prices. The calculated six-month price will be added to the offeror's total proposed price. Thus, the offeror's total price for the purpose of evaluation will include the base period, all option periods, and the calculated six-month extension price. This evaluation will not obligate the Government to exercise any option under FAR 52.217-8.
