FCDL Comment:
DR1: Given Program demand, the funding cap will not provide for Internal Connections and/or Basic Maintenance of Internal Connections at your approved discount level to be funded. Please see http://www.universalservice.org/sl/ for further details. <><><><><> DR2: The first round of your vendor selection process is not considered to be a disqualification round because the criteria used in that round were subjective and were scored, rather than being binary criteria. As a result, the first round of your vendor selection process is considered to be the first tier of a two tier vendor selection process. Price of the eligible goods and services was not a factor in your first tier. Consistent with procedures, price of the eligible goods and services must be the primary factor in each tier of a multi-tier vendor selection process. Therefore, the FRN is denied. <><><><><> MR1: The Contract Award Date was changed from 2/14/2006 to 2/15/2006 to agree with the applicant documentation. <><><><><> MR2: The Contract Expiration Date was changed from 2/13/2010 to 6/30/2009 to agree with the applicant documentation.
