IMPORTANT MAPS UPDATE!! - ACC-APG Special Announcement: MAPS and Industry Update

UPDATE 5: Thank you to our Industry and Government Partners for a successful Industry Day. We have received resounding feedback and great thought-provoking questions in which the Government will thoroughly review and consider. Some preliminary adjustments on the horizon include: 

• Inclusion and criteria for "Emerging Large Businesses", 
• The ability for applicable Offerors to leverage subcontract experience for qualifying projects,
• Refinement of outcome-based service requirements for our Commercial-Sector Vendors; and, 
• Refinement of Off-Ramp terms.

With this, please stay tuned and note the timelines presented at Industry Day will be changed. The Government intends to release another draft and final RFP within this next quarter. A new timeline will be provided at that time.
