The solicitation package is in draft form, and the government seeks feedback from potential vendors to refine the documents and ensure that industry can fully respond to the upcoming request for proposals. Vendors are encouraged to review all provided documents and submit their comments and questions by May 6, 2015, to potentially influence the final solicitation.
