The FedBizOpps staff is not authorized to determine the classification code for any FedBizOpps notice.  Because a misclassified contract action fails to notify the firms most likely to respond and therefore may violate the Competition in Contracting Act, the contracting officer is held responsible for correctly classifying a FedBizOpps notice.  A misclassified contract action must be corrected and re-synopsized in FedBizOpps.  Detailed classification codes are available on the FedBizOpps website at: http://www.FedBizOpps.gov/.
