Things to watch (4)

Worth checking: Critical safety item. Critical safety item rules apply; the solicitation will say what that requires of the supplier.
Minor: Not buying under the commercial item rules. A firm with a commercial item that meets the need must say so in writing within 15 days of the notice.

Minor: Large quantity range. The contract covers anywhere from a minimum of 21 each to a maximum of 123 each, so pricing must work across that range.
