Competition
Was the work open to bids?
- Not competed 26 (70%)

- Competed 10 (27%)
A standalone contract that was open to bids.
- Order (single-award IDIQ) 1 (3%)
A task order under an IDIQ held by one company. No new competition, so it is left out of bid statistics.
Set-asides
Set-aside = reserved for a group of businesses.

No set-aside: any size of business could bid.
- Small business 7 (19%)

- Veteran-owned 2 (5%)

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.
