Things to watch
From the version posted Oct 19, 2026.
- Serious: HUBZone set-aside. Only HUBZone-certified small businesses can bid.
- Worth checking: Delivery 84 days after order, including overseas depots. Items must reach various CONUS and OCONUS depots, so shipping and container handling cost need to be priced in.
- Minor: Contract capped at one year or 350000.00 in orders. Only two orders a year are expected, and the guaranteed minimum is 201 units, so the contract is small.
