ute a commitment by the Government. Responses to this Sources Sought Notice will be used by the government in making an appropriate acquisition decision. USACE � Mobile District is considering use of a �Price Includes Variation Over Time� (PIVOT) strategy for the acquisition described below. Economic impacts continue to negatively influence the US market, causing price hikes in simple commodities and skilled labor. These impacts result in higher prices, longer acquisition schedules, decreased competition, and more frequent requests for additional funding from customers. The PIVOT approach requires the offeror to offer multiple prices to span several periods; empowering contractors to hedge risk over the Government�s predefined periods. Offeror�s prices remain valid for all periods and at the prices proposed for each individual period. Selection of the best value (under a best value selection methodology) is based upon the weighted average price, referred to as the Total Adjusted Price (TAP). The TAP is not the award amount but represents an indexed value by which to evaluate all pricing periods.
