From the version posted Oct 25, 2026.
- Serious: Set aside totally for small businesses. Only small businesses can bid; larger firms are not eligible.
- Worth checking: Delivery within 0118 DAYS ADO. The delivery clock runs from the date of order, so price and plan production for that window.
- Minor: Guaranteed minimum is 1 of 11. The Government guarantees only a minimum quantity of 1, so the rest depends on orders placed.

- Minor: Shipping to overseas depots. Some items go to depots outside the continental U.S. through a consolidation point, which may add shipping steps and cost.
