Who can bid

Things to watch (4)
From the version posted Nov 2, 2026.
- Serious: Only SDVOSBs can bid. Only businesses certified as service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses may send offers.
- Worth checking: New PWS and SF 1449 replace earlier versions. Offers built on Amendment 0002 or the old PWS would price the wrong work.
- Minor: Extra testing in Option Year 3. Option Year 3 adds non-destructive testing and a life expectancy report on the DA/FWT, which needs its own price.

- Minor: State boiler inspections. Yearly state inspections may call for a state-commissioned boiler inspector; check the PWS for licensing.
