Questions and Answers

Q: As we prepare for the upcoming proposal submittal, we have a question regarding the appropriate format to ensure compliance with the outlined guidelines.

Upon reviewing page 12 of the RFQ, specifically the section titled “Qualifications Submission,” we seek clarification on the inclusion of our MPO form. Could you kindly advise us on where we should incorporate the MPO form within our submission?

Additionally, our MPO form encompasses the details outlined in both the “Project Team, Experience, and Qualifications” section and the “Appendix/Resumes” section. In light of this, should we include this information twice—once within the form itself and once following the order delineated on page 12?

A: The information is to be included both in your response and on the form. The MPO form can be attached to your final document, or you can include a section in your response and insert the forms there.
