This procurement will result in a national mandatory requirements contract for the above agencies. Other companies with the same/similar product will be blocked out for ordering; therefore it is our goal to award lower than FSS/Open Market prices on the resultant national contract based on purchases of a committed volume. These products will be awarded in the aggregate for all strengths and sizes for the base year and all option years included in the solicitation. Please provide a response to the following: 1.
