EXHIBIT A – TECHNICAL PROPOSAL DATA

Offerors are strongly encouraged to review the evaluation information located in the solicitation as they complete their Exhibit A (Phase I AND Phase II).

Each question should be covered in sufficient detail to clearly address all required information. Answer questions in order presented. There is an overall technical proposal page limit; 40 double-sided pages, 12 pt. Times New Roman font single spaced); use as much space as necessary to provide answers. It is advisable to state the question then give the answer. This will aid in the evaluation.

In the event you reference another document or part of the proposal you must be clear as to where the information can be found to answer the particular question(s). Such statements as see Company profile or see Safety Plan are not acceptable. You must indicate on what page of the proposal the answer can be found in the referenced document. Failure to do so may make your proposal non-compliant.
