Fort Stewart, Georgia, April 04, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The US Army issued a solicitation for small businesses who can provide a significant shipment of wood (and various other supplies) to their location in Fort Stewart, Georgia. They are only taking quotes from small businesses registered in the System for Award Management (SAM). The last day a small business can submit a quote is April 10, 2018. For assistance meeting this deadline with proper registrations and a strong offer, small businesses may use third-party government registration firm, US Federal Contractor Registration (USFCR).
The requirements to fulfill the Army's needs are found on the federal business opportunity solicitation which can be located on the Advanced Procurement Portal from USFCR. Businesses will see on the solicitation that the Army is holding a reverse auction where bids may decrease by $1 on a third-party auction site. The reverse auction ends on April 10, 2018. The line items for this procurement total to 9,425 pieces of wood in various forms, shapes and sizes, as well as 180 gallons of latex paint (in two different colors) and 950lbs of one-inch course-thread decking screws. The shipment will be due within ten days of the award decision.
This brief summary of requirements must be supplemented with a full-read of the actual solicitation. Further questions should be filtered through the third-party reverse auction holder. Businesses should immediately get started making sure they are registered properly to submit offers to the government. Contracting officers will be unable to assist with specific contractor requirements such as registration in the System for Award Management (SAM).
