*Note: While CFC regulations mandate that the solicitation period officially begins Sept. 15th and ends Dec. 15th, the Intermountain CFC LFCC recommends that agencies select a shorter timeframe within these dates to run the campaign. The recommended campaign times are as follows:

Fewer than 50 employees: 2 weeks
50-250 employees: 2-4 weeks, as needed
Over 250 employees: 4-6 weeks, as needed

Campaign times may vary according to the number of employees, field offices, internal schedules and other factors. Six weeks is the maximum time a campaign may be run by any federal agency.
