What this means
- The middle construction & facilities award from Defense Microelectronics Activity was $1.2M (FY2021-FY2025, 11 priced awards).
- That is 23.2 times the median for all construction & facilities work nationwide ($52.8k).
- Small businesses won 91% of priced awards.
- The top 3 winners took 100% of priced awards.
- 0% of priced awards went to companies based within 100 miles of the work.
- Tip 91% of these awards were task orders under single-award contracts (IDIQs). Only the company holding that contract could get them, so watch for the umbrella contract to be re-bid.
- Tip 91% of awards with a reported set-aside were reserved for small businesses, so small firms were not bidding against large companies.
