Where request for proposals requires technical proposals to be sufficfently detailed to demonstrate offeror's thorough understanding of contemplated effort, proposal is properly rejected as technically unacceptable where offeror fails to cure, after written and oral discussions, material informational deficiencies indicating offeror's lack of under- standing of scope of work. 2.
