From the notice

Department of State Overseas Buildings Operations Planning and Real Estate Worldwide Professional Brokerage Services Synopsis The Department of State plans to award multiple Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for a two-year base and eight subsequent one-year options, at the discretion of the Government. The IDIQ awards will be made to the responsive Offerors whose proposal conforms to the solicitation and offers the Best Value to the Government, whereas technical considerations are more important than cost. This award will not be set aside for small business. Multiple awards will be made with each awardee being guaranteed a minimum of $25,000 for the entire contract period of performance and shall not be considered the minimum amount for each year should any option years be exercised. The overall ceiling price for the multiple award IDIQ contract is $35,000,000.…

What you'll need to bid

A quote or proposal form. Usually the SF-1449 (or SF-18 for small quotes), filled in and signed, with a price for every line and option year.
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. Many federal service contracts include a Service Contract Act wage determination setting minimum pay and benefits for each job category. Price your labor from it.
Past performance and a short technical write-up, if the notice asks for them (no past performance yet?).
A clear staffing and quality plan, if the notice evaluates technical approach: who does the work, how you'll cover absences, and how you'll check quality.

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