What this means
- The middle construction & facilities award at Joint Base Charleston was $282k (FY2021-FY2025, 229 priced awards).
- That is 5.6 times the median for all construction & facilities work in South Carolina ($50.6k).
- Competed awards drew a median of 4 offers (reported for 70 of 70).
- 11% of competed awards drew only one offer.
- In FY2025 the middle award was $380k, up 55% from FY2024 ($245k).
- Tip 66% 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 93% of awards with a reported set-aside were reserved for small businesses, so small firms were not bidding against large companies.
