Things to watch (5)
- Worth checking: Award depends on funding. Award and start are contingent on a funded award, so timing could slip or the award may not happen.
- Worth checking: Davis-Bacon wages likely apply. Federal construction over $2,000 in the U.S. pays at least the Davis-Bacon wage rates in the wage determination attached to the solicitation. This summary doesn't name one: find it on SAM.gov and price your labor from it.
- Minor: Scope wording mixes in carpet cleaning. Parts of the work description talk about cleaning plans and schedules, so ask the contracting officer to confirm the scope is removal and installation only.

- Minor: Square footage is only on the map. The exact carpet area is in the attached map, so pricing needs that attachment.
- Minor: No keys provided. Work is limited to set hours and the Government will not give contractors keys to its facilities.
