- Minor: Pre-manufacturing package due 45 days after award. After award you must send procedures, drawings and other pre-manufacturing submittals for approval, so plan staff time for it.
- Minor: Authorization to ship needed from the contracting officer. Test and inspection reports go in for review, and shipping needs the procuring contracting officer's authorization.
- Minor: Cybersecurity certification notice included. A cybersecurity maturity model certification (CMMC) notice is in the clause list; check the solicitation for which level applies.
