IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT SOME OF THE P/N'S ON THE RFQ ARE NOT CORNING P/N'S.  I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT AS THAT WAS MY INITIAL UNDERSTANDING.  BOTTOM LINE, OFFERORS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO QUOTE CORNING SPECIFIC P/N'S.  THE P/N'S ARE PROVIDED PRIMARILY AS A REFERENCE FOR WHAT THE GOVERNMENT HAS IDENTIFIED AS A TECHNICALLY COMPLIANT PRODUCT WHICH WILL SATISFY ITS NEED.  THE GOVERNMENT WILL, HOWEVER, ACCEPT THE REQUESTED P/N OR ANY SUBSTITUTE P/N THE GOVERNMENT IS ABLE TO OBJECTIVELY DETERMINE TO BE A TECHNICALLY COMPLIANT SUBSTITUTE AFTER REVIEWING THE MANUFACTURER CUT SHEETS.
