Please note that we do NOT intend to extend the due date for submission of proposals as a result of this amendment. The date specified for receipt of proposals remains unchanged.

The purpose of this amendment is to clarify the due date for submission of proposals. It was discovered that when the Presolicitation Notice was released on December 14, 2012, a date of January 2, 2013 was inserted into the “Response Date” field. This was done in error, since a Presolicitation Notice does not have a response date (only the Solicitation itself, has a response date). Upon release of the Solicitation Notice, on December 31, 2012, this error carried over and should have been revised to reflect the date of March 14, 2013 (the due date for submission of proposals, as stated on page 1 of the Solicitation document).

Therefore, the “Response Date” field of the Solicitation Notice is being revised via this amendment from January 2, 2013 to March 14, 2013, and to read as follows: Mar 14, 2013 3:00 pm Eastern.

All other areas of the notice, including the Solicitation document remain unchanged.
