FCDL Comment:
MR1: The establishing FCC Form 470 Application Number was changed at the request of the applicant. <><><><><> MR2: The Contract Award Date was changed from month to month to 01/11/2012 to agree with the documentation provided during the review of the FCC Form 471. <><><><><> MR3: The Contract Expiration Date was changed from month to month to 01/12/2017 to agree with the documentation provided during the review of the FCC Form 471. <><><><><> DR1: Based on the documentation you provided, FRN 2457534 is denied because price was not your primary factor in your vendor selection. You failed to provide vendor evaluation documentation and stated the following criteria was used in selecting your winning vendor: "50% - Features", "30% - No monthly commitment costs with at&t", and "20% - at&t only vendor with on-line administration". Since you failed to provide a vendor evaluation matrix for the FRN and provided a response indicating vendor selection was made primarily on available features, it was determined that you failed to demonstrate that price was the primary evaluation criteria considered. Applicants must select the most cost-effective provider of the desired products or services eligible for support, with price as the primary factor. You did not meet this rule requirement and the FRN is denied.
