There are a couple of outstanding items on this, but they are minor enough that if we need work to do, the page could be created and the updates could be resolved afterwards.

@klohman or @rosamundtgov this page seems still have questions in doc, but based on comment, I just go ahead create the page and make it based on current version, is ready for design review : https://federalist-76c8d2ee-2655-47f7-8fa4-63811842d0a5.sites.pages.cloud.gov/preview/gsa/oasis-plus/wwang/manage-task-order/oasis-plus/buyers-guide/complete-market-research/

[klohman]

@weiwang-gsa I think the remaining questions are future state and related to usability testing so no issues there.

I noticed there are a few h4 headings that should be h3 though:

• CALC+ Tools Guidance
• CALC+ Quick Rate for Hourly Labor Ceiling Prices
• CALC+ Quick Rate BLS
• CALC+ Quick Rate for Prices Paid
• How do I initiate an MRAS request?
• Learn more about MRAS

[weiwang-gsa]

@klohman thanks, great catch, the doc got changed after code is checked in, probably due to removing TOC discussion, some of headings are removed and re-arranged, and I missed some changes, let me correct it.

[weiwang-gsa]

@klohman correction is made, ready for your review: https://federalist-76c8d2ee-2655-47f7-8fa4-63811842d0a5.sites.pages.cloud.gov/preview/gsa/oasis-plus/wwang/manage-task-order/oasis-plus/buyers-guide/complete-market-research/

@rosamundtgov and I worked on this on Wednesday Morning. Content to be added from another page to condense into one place

@weiwang-gsa . Once it's added, let me know and I'll take another look to finalize

[weiwang-gsa]

@PowderD sure, will do, when you finish adding new content, please kindly tag me so I will know it is ready for work, thank you!

Requires the following changes:

• Change GSA’sContractor Payment Reporting Module (CPRM) to GSA’s Contractor Payment Reporting Module (CPRM)
• Addition: replace the copy in the Research agencies and sellers section with what's in the copy doc.
• You can send an RFI to OASIS+ contract holders and their capabilities within each OASIS+ contract, domain, and NAICS code using Symphony.
• Be sure to review the User Guide for additional information. (replace helpful with additional)
• OASIS+ contract holders may request an optional and complementary scope review via OASIS+ Scope Review. (replace complimentary with complementary)
• In addition to a scope review, GSA’s Market Research as a Service (MRAS) can help you by collecting and providing industry partner information specific to your needs; MRAS conducts Requests for Information, Sources Sought, and advanced product searches to help agencies compile business, socio-economic, and technical data in order to help conduct RFIs more efficiently. MRaS also helps provide feedback about agency requirements documents, industry trends, best practices, and the best GSA contract and NAICs for their acquisition. (de-capitalize Agencies)
• You can send an RFI to OASIS+ contract holders and their capabilities within each OASIS+ contract, domain, and NAICS code using Symphony. (decapitalize Domain)
