Please clarify. What is the required minimum point size for header/footer text?

12 point font

See L.7.2 Proposal Files: "...A standard, 12-point minimum font size applies. Arial or Times New Roman fonts are required. Tables and illustrations may use a reduced font size not less than 8-point and may be landscape."

Section M 18Aug2017, pM-2 For the tabs that do not apply to an offeror's proposal (i.e., the SB tabs for a F&O offer), are we to include those sub-tabs but leave them blank?

Or are we to only include sub-tabs that we are completing?

Only include sub-tabs applicable to the vendor competing.

Section L 18Aug2017, pL-29 Paragraph L.7.4.2.2 states the page limit for Corporate and

Field Organizational Structure and Chart is a maximum of 25 pages.

Please clarify the page limitations for this sub-tab.

Tab 2 (Factor 2) Sub-Tab 2b (Sub-Factor 2b) Allows for more than one chart. "One chart per organization within the field structure shall be on 1 page each,"
