Did medstudent get her award?

[SLY4420]

It won't delay your application for another month.

It's also not a good sign. It's no sign!

Regularly scheduled programming. We'll see if there's any good news tomorrow!

I'm getting a screen that says, "WARNING! Please verify your profile information" when I log into the portal. Please tell me this is a good sign and not something that's going to delay our application for another month.

GOOD GOLLY MEDSTUDENT, YOU HAVE GONE OVER YOUR QUOTA OF LOGINS AND THEY WILL NOW LOCK YOU OUT AND PULL ALL PENDING AND FUTURE AWARDS....... I am only joking MED. They do this every so often for no apparent reason, and they appear to be random. I have my fingers crossed for you for this Friday. Have a safe trip home from Philly tomorrow. Sounds like it is going to be a beautiful day!!

Just in case DHS reads the forums, here it goes:

Please give our company our award this week. I am going home this Wednesday, and it would be AMAZING to get to deliver the good news in person. I have it all figured out how I'm going to surprise them if we get the award. Don't let my juicy plan go to waste for another week.


Sincerely,

Medstudent

PS. I know I'm desperate. But, I can't wait any longer!

Congratulations to medstudent on her award this friday!!!

See, and I checked back to 12/15/09 and you were one of the first to get an 1199 update notification. Took this long. Well till this coming Friday anyway.

When you get if officially, you still have to post a new thread with the announcement.

Maybe Jman will have some hope now.

[CCCFire09]

Awesome!!! Does this get the award for most followed grant of 2009?

[SLY4420]

Technically yes, because we don't know jman's department. But believe me, we're all following his too.

Alright!!! Way to go. Good job medstudent.

[medstudent13]

Thanks everyone! Congratulations to everyone else who is getting an award this week! Our ambulance co. president, who has been helping me all along with our grant, was very surprised too. We are breaking the news to the rest of the company tomorrow.

I don't know if my public plea for an award on these forums had anything to do with it, but I'd like to believe so. This was absolutely awesome to be able to deliver the news the day I came home from school.

Good luck to everyone who is still waiting. It's a slow process, but it's worth it.

[medstudent13]

First week of Feb: 10Qs
Last week of Feb: Reduction Notice.
March 17th: Notification of award.

[LVFD301]

Now we get to follow the bidding, and see how badly the vendors want to sell an ambulance!

[joshp707]

thanks for the time line.
we received 10Qs feb 26th and still anxoiusly waiting an award..

[medstudent13]

I'm lost. For the bidding, do I send out the RFP to manufacturers (e.g. Braun, Lifeline, Road Rescue, etc)? Or, do I have to try and find a dealer of each one of these in/near my state?

[mtndew21]

Congrat's Med Now can I get you to get some word on my grant

I'd contact the manufacturer's and ask for local dealer's closest to you.

I'm guessing the crew has already decided on the goodie's ? Keep in mind the distances after the sale for warranty and recalls.If they come to you to perform repairs would be even better. Chassis work would be local.
I do hope you planned on a winch for the front and back or at least tow hooks since it will be a 4x4 ?
