Because this would be a$ 120,000 contract, we cannot move forward without going through a competitive bidding process. In addition, this cost is more than OP A's budget. In the past, we have solicited funds from the program offices to reduce the portion covered by OPA. Other offices have contributed in exchange for receiving the clips once a day. I can start the process of soliciting funds and competing the contract. If you and Liz want me to proceed, I'll get a time estimate from our budget team. Our contact at Definers has still not returned my request for a demo. - George Sent from my iPhone On Jun 29, 2017, at 8:50 AM, Wilcox, Jahan wrote: George- I don't care how this happens but we need to make this happen as quickly as possible. I'm trying to get a clip from an MSNBC show that is time sensitive and can't grab it because it's not online yet. We miss a lot of clips that happen overnight or on the weekends and we need a solution to fix this. Thank you. Jahan SierraClubvEPA_3: 18-cv-02372_N.D.Cal.

I would do it on Thursday, but I have to take the day off for a family matter. If you would like to be part of the demo, I could find another day. - George From: Wilcox, Jahan Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2017 4:55 PM To: Hull, George Subject: RE: Definers Thanks man! I am out on Friday but the rapid response clips are helpful and the interns doing a great job but we miss stuff late at night.

Last night a story about in the NYT and would've been nice to have someone at the helm to send that out as it happened.
