(1) Technical Capability - Is defined as the ability to meet the minimum requirements as specified in this solicitation and the attached specification document (See Attachments).

If the deficiencies are not corrected within the seven day period, the offer will be rejected as non-responsive.

Additionally, the contractor SHALL SUBMITT THE COMPLETED DATA SHEET WITH THEIR QUOTE. The contractor shall provide sufficient documentation of their technical capability, such as experience of the company and/or the key personnel and crew who will be performing the work, resumes, equipment lists, etc. or other information to enable the Government to determine the company's capability on projects of similar type, size, scope and complexity.
