14 construction solicitations close this week — and GSA's $10B IDIQ finally moves
Deadlines through 21 September, 31 new postings, and 9 awards from last week.
Pre-launch reference issue. This issue was assembled to validate the template and the verification gate during the silent-run period. It was not sent to subscribers, and the figures in it are illustrative of format rather than a published record. It will be replaced by issue No. 1 when the run begins.

Around the industry
GAO sustained a protest of a design-build evaluation at NAVFAC Southeast, finding the agency credited experience the proposed team no longer held. Worth reading before your next Phase One. · GAO decision
DoD issued initial guidance on the new construction OTA authority. Nontraditional and modular builders gain access; standard FAR protections and protest rights do not travel with it. · Federal Register
The read
Guam is quietly eating the Pacific construction budget
Three of the ten largest orders this fiscal year went to Guam, all under the same MACC. That concentration matters: the vehicle is being used for very large single awards rather than spread across mid-size ones, and the pool of firms that can bond at that level is small.
If you are not already teamed with one of the holders, the realistic route is subcontract rather than prime — and the window is now, because the ordering period ends September 2027.
