FCDL Comment:
DR1:FCC rules require that, in order to determine the most cost effective provider, that the price of the eligible products and services must be weighted the most heavily in your bid evaluation. You included the value of ineligible products and services in your price factor. Other cost factors can be included in your bid evaluation, but these factors cannot have a weighting equal to or more than the cost of the eligible products and services. Since the price of the eligible products and services alone was not weighted the greatest, you violated the competitive bidding program rules.||MR1:In consultation with the applicant, this FRN was split to conduct an independent review of the respective product(s)/service(s) being provided under the FRN. The new FRN is 1699144417. The service in the new FRN is NBD AHR. The product(s) and service(s) remaining in the original FRN are cabling, installation, power cord, UPS, module, UPS, Operating System Software, and switches. ||MR2:The amount of the funding request was changed from $141,450.00 to $140,552.10 to remove the ineligible service(s): NBD AHR for $897.89.
