Dr. Messer is an expert in data reduction strategies of principlal components and factor analysis. Dr. Messer has unique knowledge of experimental study design and the type of data analyses to be performed. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. Notwithstanding, any firm who believes it is capable of meeting EPA's requirement as stated herein may submit a response, which if received within 10 calendar days of the date of this announcement will be considered.
