BACKGROUND
The Federal Investigative Services (FIS) is a part of the United States Office of Personnel Management (OPM). FIS provides background investigation services for other agencies of the Federal Government.
In descending order of importance Merit, Past Performance, and Price will be consider. The Government reserves the right to award to a higher priced technically superior offeror if it determines that the superior technical quality of the selected quote outweighs the relative difference in price. Price will become a relatively more significant determining factor as the technical quality of competing quotes converges.
