Specifically, the document introduces paragraphs 7.1.5 and 7.1.6 into the existing Terms of Reference. These new requirements dictate that any consortium or joint venture participating in the bid must be exclusively composed of accredited Forcepoint resellers, and that any subcontracting activities must also be limited to accredited Forcepoint resellers. The document is signed by Dr. G. Whittle, Acting Director-General, and serves as an official amendment to ensure compliance and technical qualification standards for all potential bidders seeking to fulfill this procurement contract. It emphasizes the necessity for bidders to verify their partnership status within the Forcepoint reseller network before submission.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/","Research
