Your Technical Proposal should not include any pricing. It must be a clear, concise narrative demonstrating your understanding of the Statement of Work (SOW) and your ability to meet its requirements. Avoid simply repeating or paraphrasing the SOW. Instead, detail the specific methods, resources, and management techniques you will use. The government will evaluate offers based on technical capability (acceptable/unacceptable), past performance, and price, with an award made to the lowest-priced technically acceptable offeror.
