9. During the conference it was discussed about verifying SAM activation status.

a. It was discussed that businesses are encouraged to verify their SAM.gov status and make sure their SAM registration is active and not close to expiration. An expired SAM registration will prevent award in the contract writing system.

10. During the conference it was discussed about using the expertise of the APEX.

11. During the conference it was asked if this would be one award, several awards?

a. The MATOC is to establish a pool of contractors with an ordering vehicle. The Government would then compete Construction requirements only among those contract holders with an ordering vehicle on the Montana MATOC. There would be no posting of the requirement on SAM.gov, the requirement would be sent directly to MATOC contract holders. The Government is not required to use the MATOC but for most projects it will be utilized.

Although it was discussed that the primary purpose for the MATOC was the projects for the 120th Air Wing, it was mentioned that there was a small chance of other requirements such as Army Guard Armory projects that could utilize the MATOC.
