All Rights Reserved allow an untimely debrie?ng request to be accommodated, if the request for a debrie?ng is not timely, the offerors re- quest can be denied. A debrie?ng is not a debate, nor is it an opportunity for an offeror to ques- tion the subjective judgment of the Source Selection Authority (SSA). Do not expect a page-by-page analysis of your proposal or a point-by-point com- parison of proposals. Rather, a debrie?ng is meant to be an open and frank discussion to allow the CO to show the integrity and fairness of the source-selection process. Each off- eror will be given suf?cient information so that they know the basis of the SSAs integrated assessment. Each proposal received is evaluated against the evalu- ation factors included in the Request for Proposals (RFP). An unsuccessful of- feror should walk away from a debrief- ing knowing how his or her proposal was evaluated against these factors and how the successful offerors proposal was evaluated against these factors. The debrie?ng must include the rat- ings, strengths, weaknesses, de?cien- cies and past performance con?dence assessment for both the unsuccessful offeror who requested the debrie?ng and the successful offerors. If there was more than one successful offeror, the information will be provided for all of the successful offerors. The successful offerors information will be redacted appropriately. No one will ever see un- successful offerors information except that offeror. After an offeror has received the de- brie?ng, they should: know why they were unsuccessful and why someone else was successful; have con?dence their proposal was treated fairly; be as- sured their proposal was evaluated in accordance with the RFP; and be able to identify shortcomings in their proposal and use them as a learning tool for fu- ture proposals. FAR gives the CO latitude in how and where the debrie?ng will be conducted. The debrie?ng may be face to face, tel- ephonic, or in writing. The needs of the offeror are given consideration, but the CO has the ?nal decision. The ground rules will be laid out in the notice of ex- clusion from the competition or in the notice of contract award. Pay close at- tention to the instructions, as failure to follow them may result in a debrie?ng request being denied. Many times unsuccessful offerors will ask about a source selection or make comments about how it went. When I ask if they requested a debrie?ng and they say no, I do not even know what to tell them. Why would an offeror not request a debrie?ng? Debrie?ngs can be of great assis- tance both to offerors new to the in- dustry and to experienced offerors. You have a right to a debrie?ng and you can bene?t from it. The primary value of a debrie?ng is to learn from your mis- takes and have a better proposal next time around. It is your job to take the critical information given during the debrie?ng and use it to improve your competitiveness or use it to make a no- bid decision in the future. (Contributed by Mary S.
