Value at award = the contract value when it was signed. Bids = offers received; "–" means not reported. Set-aside = reserved for a group, such as small or veteran-owned businesses. IDIQ = an umbrella contract; work under it is placed as task orders. After changes = the original award value was not reported, so the value shown includes later changes; such awards are left out of price statistics.

How the work was bought

Competition

Was the work open to bids?

  • Competed 319 (44%)

    A standalone contract that was open to bids.

  • Not competed 220 (30%)

    Sole-source: only one company was asked.

  • Order (single-award IDIQ) 157 (22%)

    A task order under an IDIQ held by one company. No new competition, so it is left out of bid statistics.

  • Order (multiple-award IDIQ) 27 (4%)

    A task order placed under an IDIQ held by several companies, who competed for it.

Set-asides

Set-aside = reserved for a group of businesses.

  • Open to all 335 (46%)

    No set-aside: any size of business could bid.

  • Small business 299 (41%)

    Only small businesses could bid.

  • 8(a) 78 (11%)

    Reserved for firms in SBA's 8(a) program for disadvantaged small businesses.

  • Not reported 10 (1%)

    The agency did not report a set-aside.

  • Woman-owned 1 (<1%)

    Reserved for woman-owned small businesses (WOSB/EDWOSB).

Left out of the numbers above: 1 overseas, 240 equipment purchases, 27 cancelled or $0 awards. Why?

Umbrella contracts used here

Many jobs are placed as task orders under an IDIQ: an umbrella contract with no fixed amount. Only the companies holding it can get those orders. A "multiple-award" IDIQ is shared by several companies, who compete for each order. "–" = not reported.
