Things to watch (7)
From the version posted Oct 16, 2026.
- Serious: Small business set-aside. Only small businesses can bid on this total small business set-aside.
- Worth checking: Phase-in starts 3 calendar days after award. The awardee must deliver, install, connect and test every contractor-owned machine in the selected facilities, which means having 73 washers and 66 stacked dryers ready to go.
- Worth checking: 95% uptime requirement. At least 95% of all leased washers and 95% of all leased stacked dryers must be working at any given time, checked weekly by the COR.

- Worth checking: Repair response times differ inside the PWS. Section 3.1 gives seven calendar days to respond to repair requests, while section 3.4.2 requires starting repairs within three working days; ask the contracting officer which governs.
- Worth checking: Equipment age, brand and size limits. Machines must be no older than 4 years, all of one brand, white, and within set dimensions to fit the laundry rooms, so older stock can't be used.
- Minor: Base access vetting for workers. Crews need base access credentials, and increased background investigations may be required for sensitive areas.
- Minor: Quantities can change by modification. The Government may add or remove units as base needs change, which changes the lease total.
