    So, that looks like one unsolicited proposal and half a dozen RFPs, and it took them two years. Hopefully, now that the door is opened a little bit, we’ll see more unsolicited proposals coming forward. I suspect that if we rely on CASIS to create viable RFPs then the National Lab will just fade away from too little, too late.

    C’mon CASIS. Prove me wrong!
