Things to watch (5)
From the version posted Nov 2, 2026.
- Serious: Very large project for a small business. At $100 to $250 million, a prime needs very large bonding capacity and staff.
- Serious: Demanding past project requirements. Each project must be a new hangar of $35 million or more, and one needs a 200-ft clear span, which few small firms have built.
- Worth checking: Renovations and pre-engineered buildings don't count. Only new hangar construction or additions qualify as relevant experience.

- Worth checking: Limit on subcontracting. A set-aside award would cap payments to subcontractors that aren't similarly situated at 85 percent, excluding materials.
- Minor: Attachment size limit. The whole package must fit in one 5Mb attachment, and late responses are not accepted.
