Very likely. So if you (the OP) are the one jumping to the conclusion that this has anything to do with the request, just stop; you're incorrect. If the vendor is claiming that, then you now know the vendor doesn't know what they're doing with the technology and you will be stuck debugging their system for them and you should add some time to your project plan to account for that eventuality.
