The Information Exchange Day is intended to facilitate Army and Industry collaboration for the upcoming SURAC requirements. PD-LMR invites Offerors who have expressed interest in the SURAC acquisition to attend. The Government finds that SURAC's commercial off-the-shelf nature and the requirements for interoperability must be validated. This exchange of information is to improve the understanding of the validation process of technical acceptance. It is the intent of the Government to address any areas of ambiguity and permit a potential Offeror to make an informed decision about whether to participate in the acquisition. Attendance at this information exchange will not improve or detract an Offerors ability to participate in the SURAC invitation to test.

In order to allow sufficient time for questions and answers during the open discussion, it is recommended companies submit questions ahead of time. Questions for consideration should be submitted to Kristine Pennock no later than noon Eastern Standard, 12 November 2015. The questions posed should be related to the understanding of the validation process of technical acceptance, since at this time the other aspects of the solicitation have not been determined. If your question is not addressed during the discussion session, all responses to questions submitted electronically will be posted to FedBizOpps at a date following the Information Exchange. The Government assumes no responsibility for any representation made by any of its officers or agents during the session. Questions received and Government responses furnished during the session are unofficial. Government representatives have been instructed to answer to the best of their ability and knowledge. The session will not be recorded, but notes will be taken to ensure that questions requiring response have been properly documented.
