What this means
- The middle construction & facilities award at VA Minneapolis was $141k (FY2021-FY2025, 85 priced awards).
- That is 3.2 times the median for all construction & facilities work in Minnesota ($43.6k).
- Competed awards drew a median of 2 offers (reported for 60 of 60).
- 45% of competed awards drew only one offer.

- Tip 44% 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 81% of awards with a reported set-aside were reserved for small businesses, so small firms were not bidding against large companies.

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.
