Things to watch (4)
From the version posted Oct 20, 2026.
- Serious: OEM traceability documents required. Responses must include documents tracing each part to the maker, which a repair shop without OEM ties may not have; responses missing required information cannot be used.
- Worth checking: Repair must follow OEM revisions and service bulletins. You need access to the maker's current repair data to meet this standard.
- Worth checking: Responding does not put you on a bidders list. You must respond again to any later solicitation; this response will not get you the solicitation.
