The Competitive Bidding Implementation Contractor (CBIC) recently reminded Round 2021 bidders about three upcoming sets of significant dates and deadlines regarding their bids.
They are:
Notice |
Date Available |
Deadline to Respond |
10/31/2019 |
11/14/2019 |
|
Notice of Covered |
11/15/2019 |
12/02/2019 |
12/03/2019 |
12/17/2019 |
Bidders must upload their responses to Connexion by their corresponding deadlines. The CBIC stated it won’t accept other methods of communication.
In the reminder, CBIC stated that it will notify all bidders about the Notice of Preliminary Bid Evaluation, but it will only send the Notice of Covered Document Review Findings and Required Action to bidders that submitted a required financial document by the covered document review date. Also, it will only send a Notice to Substantiate Your Bid(s) to bidders that it asks to verify their bid amounts.
CBIC added that bidders will be receiving notifications on their bid evaluation via the email that is recorded in the CMS Enterprise Portal, so it is important that bidders maintain that email address in the Portal.
