Share of the 183 priced awards.

Median = the middle award: half were smaller, half were larger. Bids = how many offers the agency received.

What this means

  • The middle construction & facilities award from Government Accountability Office was $98.6k (FY2021-FY2025, 183 priced awards).
  • That is 87% higher than the median for all construction & facilities work nationwide ($52.8k).
  • Competed awards drew a median of 3 offers (reported for 11 of 11).
  • 9% of competed awards drew only one offer.
  • In FY2025 the middle award was $71.4k, down 12% from FY2024 ($81.5k).
  • Tip 93% 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 53% 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 (single-award IDIQ) 170 (93%)

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

  • Order (multiple-award IDIQ) 11 (6%)

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

  • Not competed 2 (1%)

    Sole-source: only one company was asked.

Set-asides

Set-aside = reserved for a group of businesses.

  • Not reported 151 (83%)

    The agency did not report a set-aside.

  • 8(a) 17 (9%)

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

  • Open to all 15 (8%)

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

Left out of the numbers above: 1 equipment purchase, 6 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.
