Amendment 00008 February 4, 2015

Solicitation 1, CSD DDoSD BAA, HSHQDC-15-R-B0017, is amended to establish a new proposal closing date. Although proposals have already been submitted, we are unable to evaluate these proposal submissions as it is necessary to clarify a compliance issue in the solicitation/call. As a result, a new proposal closing date has been established. If submitting a proposal for the first time, no special instructions are required as the normal process for submitting a proposal is in effect. However, if choosing to revise a proposal currently in the portal, specific information regarding the procedures for resubmitting a proposal in response to this amended call has been provided via email to the administrative POC and the technical POC identified in the portal for the proposal submitted. If you did not receive this specific information, provide an inquiry, identifying the proposal number, name, company name and contact information to BAA-14-R-B0005@hq.dhs.gov.
