We are doing an On-Ramping Event for contractors who were not eligible for award during the original RFP period. To answer your question there is no difference between this RFP (HC101324R0001) and the RFP (HC101322R0005) that was released last year.

What is the Q&A date? | Document RFP - HC101324R0001, Page 164 | Corrected the questions/comments due date to reflect open to conincide with the 6 month open period for proposal submittal.

| 0006 | Please clarifiy the instructions and requirements for submitting the Attachment 8 Nondisclosure Agreement (NDA) with the Volume IV - Contract Volume.
