What you'll need to bid

The bid form. Construction jobs usually use the SF-1442: your company details, your price, the amendments you acknowledge, and a signature.
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.
