Napolik, Thanks for your quick reply. Yes, you are correct, I have found guidance on the template provided by the Marine Corps but, the "if applicable" caveat seems to raise its head throughout the directions. This is the part that is throwing me for a loop. The sample BCMs, I have managed to collect, have a lot of material that common sense tells me I dont need to include in mine...but I don't want to use my common sense and get stepped on, so I am hoping I can get advice on what is the most critical information needed and I don't get too wordy. I guess what I am looking for is to see if a streamlined BCM exists for such situations; We intend to award without discussions. Thanks for yout help.
