We know from past FDA experience that that can become a challenge, electronically. What we intend to do, send our proposal response in the first and separate email, labeled as the first of a series of emails so you have that for this response. The other emails are going to be our materials, but those files are large, not at all certain they will "go through." | Please comply with the RFQ requirements. |
