Account requiredWhy it scored this way

Every reason behind the verdict rather than the headline one — which of your certifications match, how much runway is left, whether the work is your size, and what we would need to know to sharpen it.

Draft the paperwork

Written against this notice and what you have told us about your company. Anything we do not know is marked [NEEDS INPUT] in the draft rather than guessed at — read it before you send it.

Compliance matrix

Every stated and implied requirement, its source section, whether it is mandatory, and where your response will address it.

Proposal outline

A submission skeleton where every required element is a heading with its source requirement quoted beneath it. You write the substance; nothing gets forgotten.

Questions to submit

Genuine ambiguities and requirements that disadvantage a smaller bidder, drafted as questions you can submit before the Q&A deadline.

Past performance write-ups

Which of your prior awards best match this requirement, and draft write-ups in the format the agency asked for.

Market intelligence

Account requiredWho wins this work, and what it pays

Comparable awards under NAICS 238220 at this agency — the incumbent, what they were paid, when their period of performance ends, and the real pricing distribution rather than the headline number. From public federal award records.

Statement of work, as posted

The facility located at the USDA Subtropical Horticulture Research Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Station has approximately 6,000 square feet of lab and office area. The ductwork is collecting condensation and causing water damage. The HVAC system consists of one air-cooled chiller, associated pumps, and two variable air volume air handling units. The humidity in the labs was tested and determined to be higher than the acceptable range (70% or higher). A&E firm Clark Nexsen provided retro commissioning with TAB services and proposed solutions for the condensation problem, as well as designs for the renovation of the roof, HVAC, BAS, and chiller. Solicitation documents are posted below. NOTE: The drawings and specifications below are the A&E's 100% submittal to USDA-APHIS. When internal reviews are complete and returned, the A&E will finalize and send us the stamped, for-construction drawings and specs, at which point they'll be posted here. Amendment 1 and the final construction documents are posted below. Site visit attendance list is posted below. An RFI log is posted below. Amendment 2 is posted below. It extends the closing date for receipt of proposals.
