What this means

  • The middle building construction award from Smithsonian Institution was $226k (FY2021-FY2025, 404 priced awards).
  • That is 27% higher than the median for building construction nationwide ($178k).
  • Competed awards drew a median of 1 offer (reported for 246 of 246).
  • 58% of competed awards drew only one offer.
  • In FY2025 the middle award was $339k, up 41% from FY2024 ($240k).
  • Tip 57% 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 66% of awards with a reported set-aside were reserved for small businesses, so small firms were not bidding against large companies.
