Status Memo: MR1: Based on the applicant's request, the One-time Eligible Cost of the FRN's Item 21 was changed from $64,346.00 to $42,750.00. <><><><><> MR2: The Contract Award Date was changed from 04/13/2015 to 05/06/2015 to agree with the documentation provided during the review of the FCC Form 471. <><><><><> DR1: No contract or legally binding agreement was in place when the FCC Form 471 Certification was filed. FCC Rules require that a contract be signed and dated by the applicant or there be a legally binding agreement in place prior to the filing of the FCC Form 471 Certification for the products and services requested. <><><><><> DR2: The description for the products and services on the cited FCC Form 470 for all of the products and/or services in the FRN contains a particular manufacturers name, brand, products and/or services without also specifying or equivalent. This is a competitive bidding violation because there is no indication that FCC Form 470/RFP is also allowing a service provider to submit a bid for equivalent products and/or services. This undermines the competitive bidding process by eliminating the opportunity for the applicant to purchase an equivalent or better product that may be less expensive or to choose a less expensive service provider. <><><><><> DR3: Based on the documentation you provided during the Selective Review, FRN 2849642 will be denied because you did not consider all bids received in response to the FCC Form 470 and/or RFP during your evaluation process. <><><><><> DR4: Documentation was not provided to demonstrate that price was the primary bid evaluation factor in selecting this service provider's proposal. The Program rules require that applicants select the most cost-effective provider, with price being the primary evaluation factor. Since you did not meet this requirement, this FRN must be denied.
