Thanks!
1) No, never.
2) likely fairly quickly. We historically have had about 5 bids per year. And, the new contract is going to shorten the conversion window, which will mean bids will happen more often. It’s impossible to say, but it could be anywhere from almost immediately (if your timing is lucky) to 6 months or more. No guarantees, but likely to be fairly soon.
