Who can bid
- Small business under NAICS 236220 (size standard $45M); the buy is a total small business set-aside
Things to watch
- Serious: Small business set-aside. Only small businesses under the $45M size standard for NAICS 236220 should plan to win this award.
- Worth checking: Set-aside wording conflicts. The notice says it is a total small business set-aside but also that all responsible sources may quote; ask the contracting officer which applies.
- Worth checking: Scope only in attachments. Which building systems need repair, and how much, isn't in the notice text, so you can't price without the scope documents.
Read from the notice text only.
