This tool replaces the Unison platform for new solicitations and aims to streamline communication with vendors, ensure fair evaluation of responses, and maintain audit readiness. Unlike the previous system, this tool does not support reverse auctions, requiring vendors to submit their best offers upfront. Vendors will be notified of new solicitations via email from NAVAIR_Acquisition@us.navy.mil. These emails will include a unique Buy Number and Vendor Specific Number in the subject line, along with an Excel attachment containing detailed solicitation information across multiple tabs: General Information, Bidding Requirements, Buy Terms, and Line Item Input. To submit a bid, vendors must complete the green-headed cells in the Line Item Input tab of the Excel file, save it, and reply to the original email with the attached file. Questions can also be submitted by replying to the original email. Award notifications for the lowest and technically acceptable bid will be communicated directly by the buyer.
