Ensure your proposed space meets all physical and security requirements, including the foundation load capacity and the prohibition against being in a 1-percent-annual chance floodplain. Also, confirm compliance with fire safety, accessibility, seismic, and sustainability standards. If you are not already registered in SAM.gov, start that process immediately, as it is often a prerequisite for government contracts.
