FAQ
Questions before you act on the signal.
Should contractors rely on glossary definitions as legal advice?
No. Glossary pages are plain-English education. The solicitation, contract, FAR, agency instructions, and professional advice control when requirements are binding.
Why do glossary pages link to recompete workflows?
Terms like RFI, IDIQ, BPA, FSC, and NSN can change how a contractor reads timing, fit, source confidence, and next actions.
