If an RFP states, "The remote module shall be designed to meet current ISO standards," and the proposal response reads, "The remote module will meet and exceed ISO standards by the time it is implemented," which of the following describes the response?

The response can be considered compliant because it directly addresses the requirement outlined in the RFP. The statement in the RFP specifies that the remote module must be designed to meet current ISO standards, and the proposal affirms that it will do so while additionally indicating that it will exceed those standards upon implementation.

This shows that the proposal meets the basic criteria set forth in the RFP regarding ISO standards, fulfilling the requirement for compliance. However, while the response may not completely encapsulate the full implications of being responsive—such as how the implementation will exceed standards or details of the design—it does meet the minimum standard laid out in the RFP, which is a crucial aspect of compliance.

The lack of additional context or details could question its responsiveness, depending on the extent of the RFP requirements. However, the assurance that the design will meet current standards means that the proposal can be considered compliant.
