Things to watch (10)
- Serious: 8(a) set-aside: only 8(a) firms can bid. A business outside the SBA 8(a) program cannot receive this award.
- Serious: CMMC Level 1 (Self) required before award. Without a current CMMC status and affirmation entered in SPRS, a firm is not eligible for award, and the CMMC unique identifiers must go in the proposal.
- Serious: Corporate Experience bar: $925,000 projects and self-performance across many specialties. Bidder questions quote the Corporate Experience factor as requiring projects of $925,000 or more and self-performed experience in every listed scope area; a bidder asked to cut this to three of five areas, and the Government's answer was not in the text read.
Show all 10Show fewer
- Worth checking: HEMP shelter emergency calls and cleared staff. A bidder question says HEMP shelter work may need staff with Secret security clearances and asks whether emergency orders must be answered within one hour; the Government's answer was not in the text read.
- Worth checking: Contractor pays for repairs up to 32 hours and $2,500 each. A bidder question quotes the solicitation as making the contractor responsible for repairs found during scheduled maintenance, up to 32 hours of labor and $2,500.00 of direct material per deficient condition, which affects pricing.
- Worth checking: 50 percent limit on subcontracting. A prime may not pay more than half of the Government's payments to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities, so teaming plans must stay inside this limit.
- Minor: Response due date moved by amendments. Amendment 0007 moves the response due date to 04 Nov 2026 from 13 Oct 2026; SAM.gov shows November 4, 2026, 5:00 PM Hawaii.
- Minor: Set-aside clause list cites a total small business clause. SAM.gov shows an 8(a) set-aside while the clause list includes the Notice of Total Small Business Set-Aside; ask the contracting officer which governs.
- Minor: The pre-proposal conference was May 12, 2026. Check the amendments for slides, answers or an attendee list, and whether taking part was required.
- Minor: Hawaii labor and tax costs to price in. The Government tells bidders to price Hawaii payroll burden, prepaid health insurance, general excise tax and Service Contract Labor Standards wages (wage determination 2015-5689).
