Contractors are required to be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) government system prior to award to be eligible for a government contract - the link can be found at http://www.ccr.gov/ -- we advise potential offerors to begin the registration process when they prepare their proposal to ensure the registration in the CCR database is complete and in-place should they be selected for the award.

Equipment, materials and fabrication techniques must be selected to withstand wide temperature fluctuations (temperatures will reach minus 40 degrees F in the winter and 80 degrees F in summer) without harm or denigration to the exhibit and its elements. Humidity will also create problems for exhibit elements. Precautions must be taken to avoid damage caused by excessive humidity.
