A seller was notified they were one of the selected sellers based on their proposal. The seller immediately circulated an internal newsletter stating they had just been awarded a large contract for a period of five years. Would the newsletter be factually correct?
  1. It is likely that the newsletter is factually incorrect. While the seller has been selected for the work, it is unlikely that the term of the project would have been five years.
  2. It is likely that the newsletter is factually incorrect. A selected seller is one whose proposal is judged to be in a competitive range. It does not mean they have the work.
