[Intro] Step on the stage, competition’s in the air— FAR Part 15, everybody prepare! [Verse 1] Solicitation’s posted, industry takes the floor, Evaluation factors—what you’re looking for. Technical, cost, and past performance too, Source selection rules guide what we do. [Pre-Chorus] Communications open—but careful, not free, The KO’s the only one with obligating authority. [Chorus] FAR Part 15—Everybody compete! Best value rhythm and a source selection beat. FAR Part 15—You gotta play it right, Transparency and fairness shining bright! [Verse 2] Discussions when needed, clarifications small, But keep it equal treatment—we don’t break the law. Trade-offs happen when value outweighs cost, Choose the best proposal—not the one that's lost. [Pre-Chorus] Document decisions—make the rationale clear, Because GAO’s watching over your shoulder, my dear. [Chorus] FAR Part 15—Everybody compete! Best value rhythm and a source selection beat. FAR Part 15—You gotta play it right, Only the KO makes the deal airtight! [Bridge] Offerors dancing, proposals in tune, Evaluators reading every word in the room. Scoring the strengths, weaknesses in hand, Award goes to the best per the plan! [Breakdown] Say “K-O!” (Only they obligate!) Say “Fair!” (Treat them all the same!) Say “Best Value!” (Trade-off time!) FAR 15—Drop that rhyme! [Final Chorus] FAR Part 15—Everybody compete! Follow the rules and bring that heat. FAR Part 15—Come on, sing along! Competition makes the contract strong!
