How the work was bought

Competition

Was the work open to bids?

  • Order (single-award IDIQ) 19 (66%)

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

  • Competed 8 (28%)

    A standalone contract that was open to bids.

  • Not competed 2 (7%)

    Sole-source: only one company was asked.

Set-asides

Set-aside = reserved for a group of businesses.

  • Open to all 22 (76%)

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

  • Small business 5 (17%)

    Only small businesses could bid.

  • 8(a) 2 (7%)

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

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.
