Amendment 1 – RFP NIHES2016089

Conduct of Studies to Evaluate the Toxicologic Potential of Selected Test Agents for the National Toxicology Program (NTP)

1) Question:

Attachment 21 indicates that the entire electronic proposal submission, including appendices, cannot exceed 25MB. Will the Government consider increasing the file size limit?

Answer:

The maximum combined size for a proposal and its attachments has been increased to 275 MB.

2) Question:

While attachment 21 provides page limitations for many required proposal sections, there are several proposal sections requested by the Government that have no referenced page limits, e.g., Mandatory Requirements (M.4), Other Considerations (L.b.2); Obtaining and Disseminating Biomedical Research Resources (L.b.6); SOPs (Att. 21). Should offerors assume that these proposal sections fall outside of and do not count towards the page limitations set forth in Attachment 21?

Answer:

Offerors can assume that if a page limit is not specified for a section or requested information, then there is no limit on the number of pages for that section/information.
