Key dates and the submission deadline

Offers are due October 30, 2026, at 1:00 p.m. Central Time. The listing also gives 2:00 p.m. ET, the same deadline expressed in Eastern Time.

The solicitation says offers received after the deadline are late and generally will not be considered. Submit early enough to confirm your offer reaches the designated Government office on time.

Who this opportunity suits

This opportunity may suit a small business that can supply a new LED sign and handle removal of the existing sign and installation at the health care center. The solicitation identifies NAICS 339950 and limits the set-aside to small businesses.

The stated 120-day performance period is measured from the date of award. Consider whether your team can plan and complete the work within that period.

At a minimum, include the solicitation number, your business name and contact details, UEI and any applicable EFT indicator, required evaluation information, completed offeror representations and certifications not collected through SAM, and a statement of agreement with the solicitation terms and amendments. The solicitation also calls for a name and phone number.

Practical ways to strengthen your response

Build your price around the full work described in the Performance Work Statement. The solicitation requires all-inclusive unit pricing, including applicable labor, travel, lodging, per diem, taxes, and other costs needed to perform the contract.

Check that your offer addresses both removal and installation, uses the solicitation’s requirements, and reflects the 120-day period after award. Include your best terms in the initial offer because the agency intends to evaluate offers and award without discussions, while reserving the right to hold discussions.

Before sending, verify every required item is present, confirm your pricing is consistent throughout the offer, and check that the signed offer and any required responses to amendments are ready for timely delivery.
