From the notice

Amendment 0002 - Industry Q&A Amendment 0001 - Site Visit Information and Extension to Closing Date The VA Boston Healthcare System is seeking a vendor for for a localized replacement-in-kind repair of the existing perimeter security fence at the Brockton VA Campus located at 940 Belmont Street, Brockton, MA 02301. The existing fence is identified in the submitted repair documents as an Ameristar Impasse Trident system and has sustained damage associated with winter snow-removal activities. The work shall restore the damaged portion to the original fence alignment, configuration, appearance, structural stability, and security function.

Excerpt from the agency's notice. Read the full text and attachments on SAM.gov.

What you'll need to bid

  • A quote form. Usually the SF-1449 or SF-18, filled in and signed, with a price for each line.
  • Active SAM.gov registration. Free from the government, and it must be active before award. It can take a few weeks, so start early (how to register).
  • Acknowledgment of every amendment (SF-30). Missing one is the most common reason a good offer gets thrown out.
  • Prices that respect the wage rules. Federal construction over $2,000 pays at least the Davis-Bacon rates in the attached wage determination.
  • Past performance and a short technical write-up, if the notice asks for them (no past performance yet?).
  • Bonds if the job is large. Federal construction over $150,000 needs payment and performance bonds, and often a bid bond (SF-24).

Always check the notice itself: the instructions in the solicitation win over any general rule.
