One-on-One Sessions – These sessions will be held at the presentation location. The intent of these sessions is to provide Industry a private, non-public forum to present the Government with comments, concerns, and recommendations for MCRC; thus, the One-on-One sessions are designed to consist of mostly one-way communication (from the firm to the Government) as the Government does not intend to share contract strategy information outside of what is provided during the Government Presentation. Companies requesting a One-on-One session must indicate such in their RSVP email. These sessions will be no longer than 30 minutes in length and may be attended by no more than five (5) people per respondent/company. The Government will inform attendees of their scheduled session time no later than 18 December 2018.

General Stipulations and Disclaimers: Recording of the event is not permitted. Other than the planned briefing materials referenced above, the Government does not plan to provide additional information for review and comment prior to the Industry Day. This announcement is not a contract, request for proposal, a promise to contract, or a commitment of any kind on the part of the Government. The Government will not reimburse costs for any effort expended or any material provided in response to this announcement. The Government does not assume liability for costs incurred by an attendee or for travel expenses or marketing efforts; therefore, attendee costs in response to this notice are not considered an allowable direct charge to the Government.
