[NCAP-Discuss] NCAP Study 1 RFP update

[Aikman-Scalese, Anne]

Thanks Matt.  Does the RFP state that the definition of name collisions will be out for public comment?

Does it indicate a time frame for delivery of the contractor's work product or is that tied to the date from which we give the contractor a final definition?

Thank you,
Anne Aikman-Scalese (NCAP DG member)

[EXTERNAL]

Dear colleagues,

You might recall that the current activity related to the NCAP work is that the ICANN org is preparing an RFP to select a contractor to perform Study 1. We are on track to open this RFP on July 9. The high level schedule is:

July: RFP open, bids accepted
August: Org evaluates responses, makes selection and engages contractor
September: Contractor begins work, estimated to take six months

Part of ICANN's standard RFP process is notifying potential vendors believed to be interested that an RFP is imminent so they don't have to find it themselves. Note that this step does not favor the vendors notified in any way: it's just letting them know that a public RFP is about to be posted. They don't receive any information related to the RFP in advance and they get the same access as anyone else interested to bid when the RFP opens. This advance notification does not obligate the recipient to take any action if they are not interested.

I am soliciting your input on suggestions for potential vendors to be notified. Please respond, either to this list or privately to me, with your suggestions. I need the firm's name and a contact's name and email address.

Thanks,

Matt
