Best value determination

Recommended Posts

Value is often defined as Quality divided by Cost.

More nuanced, Value = Benefits (Perceived Quality X Perceived Service) / Risks (Cost X Time)

Still has subjective components but comparable...and math!

Most procurements use an evaluation that relies on a best value determination.  Value seems unduly subjective.  Has anyone come up with a good way to establish and measure value, so to know which value is best?

Depends entirely on the requirement.  That’s the beauty of being a Contracting Officer. A CO has the sole discretion of determining Best Value.
