To obtain definitization data for requests for equitable adjustment to include in solicitations for construction contracts, access the PALT/Protest/REA Tracker module in the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) website at https://piee.eb.mil.

(ii) If no data exists, then include the following statement in the Description section of the solicitation notice: “No data is available regarding the timely definitization of equitable adjustments for change orders under construction contracts.” (See PGI 236.211(b)(2) for reporting data on definitization of equitable adjustments.)
(iii) Include a description of military department or defense agency policies or procedures, in addition to that outlined in FAR 43.204, that apply to definitization of equitable adjustments for change orders under construction contracts. This description may be provided in a notice by including an address of an agency-specific, publicly available website containing this information.

PGI 205.207 Preparation and transmittal of synopses.
(a)(i) Notice numbering.
(1) For a particular procurement, when submitting notices at different stages of the acquisition (i.e., sources sought notice, pre-solicitation notice, award notice), ensure the solicitation number is entered exactly the same way in order to allow all to be retrieved when a search is performed.
(2) Use only alpha-numeric characters in the solicitation and award number data elements in the GPE. Do not include hyphens, slashes, or other special characters.
(d) Special notices for small business events. When advertising an event for small businesses, post a 'special notice' notice type and ensure the "title" data field begins with "Small Business Event". This will enable the public to easily search the GPE using the small business event calendar on the website.
