What this means

  • The middle construction & facilities award won by Challenge Unlimited, Inc. was $13k (FY2021-FY2025, 130 priced awards).
  • That is 75% lower than the median for all construction & facilities work nationwide ($52.8k).
  • In FY2025 the middle award was $12.1k, down 29% from FY2024 ($17k).
  • Its most frequent buyer was GSA PBS Region 5 Acquisition Management Division (51 priced awards in FY2021-FY2025).
  • 21% of its priced awards were within 100 miles of its home base.
  • Tip 96% 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.

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?

  • Order (single-award IDIQ) 125 (96%)

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

  • Not competed 3 (2%)

    Sole-source: only one company was asked.

  • Competed 2 (2%)

    A standalone contract that was open to bids.

Set-asides

Set-aside = reserved for a group of businesses.

  • Open to all 130 (100%)

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

Left out of the numbers above: 12 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.
