This is the RFP, not contract.
It's industry typical for information needed to decide if followup and then site visit are called for, for particular potential vendors.

Well, perhaps I'm unfairly comparing the RFP's density to that of the last two colo contracts I saw, but I'm not sure I have a copy of those; I will take a look, and abide until them.

After working through the specifics internally, we now have a public RFP posted[1] and ready for proposals. We invite any organization meeting the requirements outlined to submit a proposal for review.
My snap reaction, Ken, is that the RFP seems fairly thin on relevant details; how many passes did it go through before you posted it? How much input came from the Ashburn project? Equinix Tampa?
Or was it left loose on purpose, to see what people would come up with?
Cheers,
