In two-phase selection procedures, phase-one may be issued with what type of information?

• A. Phase One includes minimum information required by FAR 36.303-1
• B. Phase One requires extensive technical specifications
• C. Phase One is optional
• D. Phase One includes all details for Phase Two

Answer: (A)

Phase One in two-phase selections is a qualification-focused step. It is issued with only the minimum information necessary to evaluate offerors’ qualifications and determine who should move on to Phase Two, as required by FAR 36.303-1. This keeps the process efficient and fair, and prevents revealing detailed specifications or price information too early. It is not optional, and it does not provide all Phase Two details.
