In effort to reduce paperwork and cost, all bids shall be submitted electronically through the SAFE site.

Submission shall be in Adobe PDF format. You are limited to five (5) maximum files per upload (total size cannot exceed 2GB). If you have a large number of files, recommend that you combine or ZIP your files before uploading to the SAFE site. Offerors may use compression utility software such as WinZip or PKZip to reduce file size and facilitate transmission.

Do not assume that electronic communication is instantaneous. It can take several minutes or even hours in some cases.

Offerors are responsible for ensuring that bids are submitted so as to reach the designated recipient. Offerors are responsible for allowing sufficient time for the bid to be received in accordance with the instructions provided.

Because uploaded documents expire in DoD SAFE, the submission of bids should only occur during a limited window of time from 1400 on 23 June 2020 07 JULY 2020 to the due date, in order to ensure that the submitted bids don’t expire before the bid opening officer has time to download the bids and conduct the bid opening.
