If award cannot be made within that tier, the Government may proceed to the next tier and repeat the process. This approach preserves the tiered evaluation structure while allowing the Government to compare quotations within the applicable tier to determine the quotation that represents the best value. If the Government is unable to make an award after evaluating all applicable tiers, the Government reserves the right to cancel the solicitation, amend the solicitation, or resolicit as action determined to be in the best interest of the Government.
