'Proposals will be due by or before 4:00 p.m., local time, on March 26, 1998,.... 'Winning Vendor(s)/Project Managers must be available to start work as early as April 8, 1998'' So not much time for any lengthy and supplier-wrenching negotiations, I guess John ________________ << The STATE OF WASHINGTON, Department of Transportation (WSDOT) will issue Request for Qualifications and Quotations, RFQQ 98-0320, on or about Thursday, March 12, 1998.
