5.1.10  Draft Sections L and M Concurrently

Draft your Section L Instructions to Offerors (ITO) concurrently with your Section M factors and subfactors.  As you are drafting Section M, you will also want to prepare the portion of the solicitation (i.e., Section L) that provides the information to prospective offerors on how to structure and what to include in their proposals.  This will ensure that you are actually asking the offeror to provide the information you plan to evaluate.  If written separately, write Section M first since Section L is based on what is contained in Section M.
