What this means
- The middle building construction award in the Utica, NY area was $233k (FY2021-FY2025, 53 priced awards).
- That is 13% higher than the median for building construction in New York ($207k).
- Competed awards drew a median of 3 offers (reported for 13 of 13).
- 15% of competed awards drew only one offer.
- In FY2025 the middle award was $1.9M, up 1147% from FY2024 ($150k).
- Tip 70% 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 92% of awards with a reported set-aside were reserved for small businesses, so small firms were not bidding against large companies.
