Technical Factor 2 – Task Demonstration will be required for those vendors who are invited to participate in the live real-time Task Demonstration. The use of hyperlinks or embedded attachments in proposals is prohibited. Accordingly, any hyperlinks or embedded attachments included with a proposal will neither be accessed nor viewed by the Government and thus, not evaluated as part of the Offeror’s proposal submission. Total submitted file size shall not exceed 100MB. NOTE: Due to file size limitations, not all emails may be received, please request a receipt response to ensure files have been delivered; multiple emails may be required due to size limitations (10MB per email).

To avoid submission of late proposals, we recommend the transmission of your proposal file 24 hours prior to the required proposal due date and time.
