Things to watch (4)
From the version posted Oct 23, 2026.
- Worth checking: Set-aside not decided yet. The Coast Guard will decide after replies whether the buy is set aside or unrestricted, so your business-size answer and proof may shape it.
- Worth checking: Must be ready to bid as a prime contractor. Replies must include a statement that you intend to bid as the prime, so a business planning only to subcontract may not fit.
- Worth checking: Work is done at the contractor's facility. The bidder needs a shipyard with drydock capacity for the cutter and its barge, and SAM.gov lists no place of performance.
