little insight to the entire process if I know it.
If you have anything you would like to submit, please do so. Also, if
you have found this information useful, please let me know. Everyone of these

Overall a pretty good package. The FIT issue is interesting.
Although not allowed on the EPR/OPR, there is no guidance on awards... (if
ya got it use it) The way the AF is moving these days, it is a HUGE buzz
word. Using such in award packages will help make it stand out. I
like the quantification used through out it. Just a couple of numbering
problems. Nothing too serious.
