J--Electrical Inspection and Repair Services at Bosto
NATIONAL PARK SERVICE / NER SERVICES MABO (43000) · Electrical · closed 2026-08-21
A small electrical contractor in the Boston area had 20 buildings and three grounds areas to inspect and repair. The contract had a time-and-materials base year with two option years. The job required Massachusetts licenses, historic-building experience, 24/7 coverage, and a 3-hour emergency response, not just electrical skill.

Bathroom Renovation of Building 181 and 660
DEPT OF THE ARMY / W6QM MICC-FORT BUCHANAN (RC) · Commercial Construction · closed 2026-08-19
The bathroom renovation looked straightforward. Every amendment still had to be signed and returned with the proposal. The notice warned that missing one could make the proposal ineligible. An estimator who priced only the drawings could still lose on paperwork.
