DG-22: Why is there a difference in timing in the review of Part 1 Proposals for Bidders that submit Proposals for more than 5 systems and those that submit Part 1 Proposals for fewer than 5 systems?

All Bidders will receive an initial review of their proposal by 6 PM on the business day the Part 1 Proposal is received if the Part 1 Proposal is received prior to 12 PM (noon) or by 12 PM noon on the next business day if the Part 1 Proposal is received after 12 PM (noon).

For Bidders with fewer than five (5) systems presented as part of the Proposal, this review will either (i) state that the Part 1 Proposal is complete and being considered or (ii) state that the initial review lists items of the Part 1 Proposal that are incomplete or require clarification.

For Bidders with more than five (5) systems in their Proposal, the timing of review may well not be different in practice from Bidders with fewer than five (5) systems. However, such a Bidder may receive a notification stating that the review of the identification and documentation for the systems presented in the Part 1 Proposal is in progress and that lists any items of the Part 1 Proposal that are incomplete or require clarification up to that point. The completion of the review will lag by no more than one business day.
