The registration process includes the completion and execution of forms and agreements required for the reverse auction process. Warning: Vendors who fail to become a qualifying vendor for purposes of reverse auction price negotiations, if held, will be ineligible for contract award and eliminated from further considerations. The reverse auction, if held, will commence within 10 calendar days of the closing date of this solicitation.

If extended, the reverse auction period will automatically close when 2 minutes have elapsed without a vendor posting another lowest price offer.

No price revisions will be accepted after the close of the reverse auction, unless discussions are held and final quotes are requested.
