The general soliciation includes criteria for selecting Solution Concept Papers and soliciting the participation of all proposers capable of satisfying the Government�s needs. Proposal requests will be issued via �Innovation Calls� that are published separately under the DCSA Innovation Gateway at various times during the open period of this solicitation.
