    The document addresses vendor inquiries regarding RFQ # HDTRA124R0081, specifically concerning software requirements for a governmental contract. The key question posed by a vendor is whether the project permits the development of custom-built software over an extended timeline or if only pre-built, off-the-shelf solutions are acceptable. The government response clarifies that while long-term custom development projects are not allowed, proposals for custom software with a one-year (base year) duration will be considered. This exchange underscores the government's preference for a specific timeframe and solution type, which is crucial for potential contractors to understand in formulating their bids. The document serves as an important resource for vendors engaged in the federal procurement process, delineating allowable proposals in response to the RFQ.
