Questions on the new acquisition strategy before we discuss RFQ feedback?
Next Steps for CALM • Reconcile industry feedback on draft CALM RFQ (there’s still time! Send feedback to FASCWS@GSA.GOV) • Work with CALM operational steering committee team, contracting and IT to determine final requirements and evaluation approach • Develop and distribute second draft RFQ for industry/workforce feedback • Finalize acquisition strategy once COMET is awarded • Establish acquisition milestones • Issue RFQ (see slide 4 for notional timelines)
