Things to watch
From the version posted Oct 29, 2026.
- Serious: Work is performed in Germany. The notice text doesn't say what is required about a local office, German licenses, labor law, currency or taxes, which can be hard for a U.S. small business to meet.
- Worth checking: PWS was revised by Amendment 0001. Pricing should follow the updated dining facility requirements in the revised PWS, not the original.
Read from the notice text only.
