FCDL Comment:
DR1: Documentation provided demonstrates that the price of the eligible products or services was not the primary bid evaluation factor in selecting the winning bidder. Specifically, it was determined that multiple bids were received for this FRN and that the local proximity of the vendor was the primary evaluation factor considered in the evaluation process. Program rules require that applicants select the most cost-effective provider, with price being the primary evaluation factor. Since you did not meet this requirement, this FRN must be denied.
