Before You Start

Make sure you know the following crucial facts before you proceed:

• Cost/Price requirements (like the Basis of Estimate or Labor Rate Attestation) are unique to each solicitation.
• Symphony requires one Excel template (.xlsx file type) and one accompanying PDF document.

Warning: There are no restricted viewing roles. Manage active user accounts accordingly. To limit access, upload sensitive information as your final step before submission.

Warning: Do not remove any columns or rows from the OASIS+ template, as this will cause validation errors. OASIS+ stands for One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services Plus.
