This means that you should save your work (click the SAVE <br /> button)at intervals of less than twenty minutes to ensure your entries (since last saved) are not lost. <br /> Please note that clicking the SAVE button within the MFMP Sourcing Tool only saves your <br /> responses. The SAVE button does not transmit your response to the State. In order to transmit your <br /> response to the State, you must click the SUBMIT button on the SUMMARY page of the response. <br /> After clicking the SUBMIT button, it is your responsibility to check your submitted response within the <br /> MFMP Sourcing Tool to verify that your response is accurately and completely captured within the <br /> tool. You must do this while there is time remaining in the response period in case you discover an <br /> error and need to submit a revised response. <br /> To validate your response, you should do the following before the Response period ends: <br /> 1) Go to the "My Bids / My Responses" tab within the MFMP Sourcing Tool after you submit <br /> your response. <br /> 2) Click on the Bid ID number of your last submitted response. <br /> 3) Review entire response to make sure all responses are complete, accurate, and as you <br /> intended to submit. <br /> 4) Minimum areas to check are: <br /> i) Text boxes—Is your entire answer viewable? <br /> ii) Yes/No questions—Is the displayed answer correct? <br /> iii) All uploaded document files / scanned documents — Can you open attached <br /> document and clearly view entire content? <br /> iv) Offline electronic backup copy sent to the State (if applicable) - Can you open <br /> attached document and clearly view entire content? Does content of this file match <br /> your response within the tool (e.g., not an earlier version or working copy)? <br /> v) Pricing Information — Are all prices you intended to submit visible and accurately <br /> captured within the MFMP Sourcing Tool? <br /> It is strongly recommended that you submit your Response as early as possible. You should allow <br /> time to receive any requested assistance and to receive verification of your submittal; waiting until the <br /> last hours of the solicitation could impact the timely submittal of your Response. <br /> The MFMP Sourcing Tool's time remaining clock is NOT the official submission date and time <br /> deadline, it is intended only to approximate the solicitation closing and may require periodic <br /> adjustments. <br /> DO NOT RELY ON THE MFMP SOURCING TOOL'S TIME REMAINING CLOCK.
