Things to watch (8)
From the version posted Oct 19, 2026.
- Serious: 100 percent performance and payment bonds within 7 calendar days. On a project of this size the bonds must be lined up with a surety ahead of time, because a Notice of Intent to Award starts a 7-day clock.
- Serious: Coupa registration and invitation needed before bidding. A business not yet in Coupa must register, wait for the Postal Service's review, then request an invitation and accept it before it can place a bid.
- Worth checking: Large roofing job with a 540-day schedule. The estimated cost is $12 million to $13 million over 540 calendar days, with 470,000 square feet of interior protection priced, so it suits firms with big-project capacity and financial strength.

- Worth checking: Work in a phased, operating postal facility. The roof work must not interfere with mail operations and is coordinated with the Facility Manager, which can slow the schedule and raise cost.
- Worth checking: Pre-proposal meeting on November 4, 2026. The meeting is on site at the P&DC and by teleconference at 9:00 AM local time; attendance is not mandatory but is strongly recommended.
- Worth checking: Possible asbestos in the roof. The scope points to asbestos laboratory reports and removal and disposal procedures if asbestos-containing material (ACM) is found, which can add cost and special licensing.
- Worth checking: Veterans' employment report registration (VETS-4212). Bidders must be registered with the Department of Labor report system and send proof with the offer.
- Worth checking: Closing time will not be extended for portal problems. Coupa trouble on the bidder's side does not move the response due date, so submit with time to spare.
