If the proposal does not meet the requirements, it may be rejected. Compliance is defined as providing all information as requested in a usable format.”Can the government please clarify the reference to "...listed above as numbers 1-10...".? We are unable to find the numbered items in the RFQ or make a direct match to the items listed in Attachment 1.The intention was to call out the 9 dashes under L.2.3 to be evaluated for compliance only
9Previous Solicitation Q&A (09/14/2016) Item #3Item #3 Q&A 09/14/2016:“The US Government (USG) is not requiring full Teaming agreement documents. Any document that outlines the team structure is sufficient information to meet this requirement. Teaming agreements are one method of providing the outline of teaming structure. An organizational chart showing how teams will interact is sufficient or just a narrative explanation. A formal teaming agreement is not required.”Would the government please reaffirm the above guidance given to vendors via Q&A as part of the original ACCENT procurement?Affirm
