Therefore, the offeror should compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of co.usembassy.gov

(2) one working day if the solicitation states that the contract or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term “working day” excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.)
