BPAs under this BPA Suite will have a ceiling of $7.0 million. Contractors under this BPA Suite must be capable of obtaining the payment bonds required for construction projects valued between $35,000 and $250,000. Contractors unable to meet this bonding requirement will not be considered for inclusion in this BPA Suite.

When establishing these BPAs, the Government will consider price; socio-economic status; past performance, where past performance exists; and technical capabilities. BPAs will be evaluated annually, and may remain in place for up to five (5) years. Annual review of BPAs will be performed to determine whether the Government is receiving fair and reasonable pricing, which may result in either continuing the BPA or early termination. Early termination may result if the Government no longer has a requirement for the general construction services provided by the Contractor.
