Vendors may ask questions during the Solicitation Overview/Review portion of the conference. Only technical and contractual questions will be entertained. Answers to questions raised during the conference will be provided when the question is posed, whenever possible. If a question can’t be answered during the conference, it will be noted for a possible answer at a later date. Vendors must not rely on verbal answers that differ from the solicitation requirements.

Questions and answers from the pre-bid conference will be posted as an addendum to the solicitation. No verbal changes to the solicitation are binding on the Agency; any answer that changes or affects the solicitation will be reviewed and published in the form of a written addendum if it is accepted.
