What this means

  • The middle construction & facilities award at NIST Gaithersburg Campus was $148k (FY2021-FY2025, 218 priced awards).
  • That is 2.3 times the median for all construction & facilities work in Maryland ($64k).
  • Competed awards drew a median of 2.5 offers (reported for 104 of 104).
  • 25% of competed awards drew only one offer.
  • In FY2025 the middle award was $376k, up 133% from FY2024 ($161k).
  • Tip 43% of these awards were task orders under multiple-award contracts (MATOCs). To compete for those, you first need a spot on one of the umbrella contracts.
  • Tip 86% of awards with a reported set-aside were reserved for small businesses, so small firms were not bidding against large companies.

How the work was bought

Competition

Was the work open to bids?

  • Order (multiple-award IDIQ) 94 (43%)

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

  • Not competed 80 (37%)

    Sole-source: only one company was asked.

  • Order (single-award IDIQ) 34 (16%)

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

  • Competed 10 (5%)

    A standalone contract that was open to bids.

Set-asides

Set-aside = reserved for a group of businesses.

  • 8(a) 95 (44%)

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

  • Small business 62 (28%)

    Only small businesses could bid.

  • Open to all 31 (14%)

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

  • HUBZone 30 (14%)

    Reserved for small businesses in a Historically Underutilized Business Zone.

Left out of the numbers above: 8 equipment purchases, 8 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.

Contracts ending soon

Recurring work whose current contract ends within 18 months, so the agency will likely buy it again (a "recompete"). The company doing it today is the incumbent.
