Things to watch (6)
- Serious: Unit of issue not stated. The notice says "QTY 63" but not per what (each, set, lot). A quote is priced per unit: ask the contracting officer before you price.
- Serious: Government intends to negotiate with only one source. The notice does not name the company, but says the Government will solicit and negotiate with one source under FAR 6.302; other firms can show interest or send proposals, and the Government may decide not to compete.
- Serious: Security clearance required to respond. The solicitation includes a classified annex released only to firms with a Confidential or higher clearance, so a business without one cannot respond.

- Worth checking: Technical documents behind a password site. Drawings and other technical documents are on a website that needs pre-registration; plan time to register before you can price.
- Worth checking: Two ways of reading who may respond. The notice says all responsible sources may send a proposal, and also says the Government intends to negotiate with only one source.
- Minor: Government source inspection and test reports. Government inspectors check the work at your plant, and you must deliver reports of test inspection.
