Respondents may be contacted for additional information and/or invited to discuss your approach/questions in person or via teleconference. A letter stating your interest or requesting a copy of the solicitation is NOT sufficient to determine contractor capability. Failure to respond to this market research does NOT prohibit vendors from responding to the resulting solicitation, should one be issued in the future.
