7-8 DRAFT PHASE 2 ISSUANCE
7-8.1 Following the completion of Phase 1 activities and the selection of the offerors to proceed into
Phase 2, the Government may issue a "draft" Phase 2 to the potential offerors to allow them to comment
on content, ambiguities, or excessive proposal requirements. This step may help avert problems later in
the process by identifying major questions and concerns of the offerors prior to the contractual issuance
of the Phase 2 amendment when there is still time to make corrections or adjustments. The decision to
utilize a "draft" Phase 2 process rests with the PM with consultation from the PDT.
