2-26.1 Best Value

As discussed in the Best Value Principle, best value is the basis of all Postal Service sourcing decisions. What constitutes best value will vary depending on the particular purchase and the aspects of value (quality, prices, delivery terms, etc.) sought by the Postal Service. These aspects of value are expressed in the solicitation’s evaluation factors, which should be tailored to the particular purchase and consistent with the requirements, purchase planning, market research, and any other business considerations deemed important to the success of the purchase.
