Interim Bid Challenge System

The Threshold Program Grant Agreement requires the Government (including any designee) to ensure that it procures all goods, works and services to implement the Threshold program in accordance with the MCC Program Procurement Guidelines (“PPG”). The PPG further require that MFK establish and publish a Bid Challenge System (“BCS”) that provides Bidders on MFK procurements with the ability to challenge and
seek review of MFK procurement actions and decisions.

To comply with these requirements and until the period before the BCS has been adopted and
becomes operational, MFK has established the rules and procedures set forth in this document,
also referred to as its interim BCS (“IBCS”), to govern the review of all challenged MFK procurement actions and decisions, and which will be incorporated in all solicitation documents distributed to Potential Bidders.
