4.  COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF OFFERS AND AWARD RECOMENDATION

(This section should include a comparative analysis of all offers received that were included in the competitive range. If a competitive range determination was not made, the PAR must address all offerors. If any offerors were excluded from the competitive range, the rationale should be included. The analysis shall identify strengths, uncertainties, deficiencies, and weaknesses, as well as the resulting evaluation ratings. Include a discussion of the results of the past performance evaluation, cost/price risk evaluation (if used), and the cost/price evaluation. When completed, this section should contain an overall, integrated assessment of mission capability (technical and associated risk rating), cost/price (if used), , past performance, and cost or price.  This section shall also provide the source selection recommendation and rationale from the SSET or SSAC, if used, and any minority opinion.  Discuss the relative order of importance of the evaluation criteria.  If the PAR does not address this in sufficient detail, it may result in a protest allegation asserting that the evaluation record did not establish that the evaluation team and the SSA actually applied the relative order of importance of the evaluation criteria when the actual comparative analysis was accomplished)
