NOTICE TIMELINE
GovBidFit change history
This timeline records when GovBidFit first stored the notice and material field changes detected during scheduled SAM.gov refreshes. It is an audit aid, not a substitute for the official amendment history.
GovBidFit first stored this opportunity from the SAM.gov public bulk feed. This does not replace the official posting date shown above.
GOVBIDFIT SCREENING LENS
What deserves attention before you spend bid time
These screening signals are generated from the public notice fields stored for this specific opportunity. They are not eligibility findings or predictions; they are prompts for a faster, more disciplined review of the official solicitation.
This is a pre-solicitation signal. Use it to prepare, verify likely eligibility and watch for the formal solicitation or amendments before committing proposal effort.
The stored deadline is within three days. Check earlier question, site-visit and attachment requirements immediately; the final response date may not be the first deadline that matters.
The current feed does not show a program-specific set-aside restriction. That does not remove other eligibility, responsibility, registration or solicitation-specific requirements.
PSC 1720 is the recorded classification. Use it as a screening clue, then compare the actual scope and deliverables rather than treating the code alone as proof of fit.
GovBidFit stores the source notice text, but its length does not prove the requirements are complete. Review official attachments, clauses, amendments and Q&A before relying on the description.
The source data includes 1 public contracting contact. Use the solicitation's stated communication rules and deadlines before contacting the buyer.
Questions to resolve next
What this opportunity record tells you
SAM.gov identifies this as a presolicitation from DEPT OF DEFENSE. The record was posted on September 17, 2026 and currently lists November 4, 2026 as the response deadline. GovBidFit keeps source facts separate from its matching guidance so you can see what comes from the federal notice.
The listed product or service classification is PSC 1720. The set-aside field is Unrestricted. These fields help narrow your search, but they do not replace the full solicitation, amendments, attachments, clauses or eligibility language on the official source.
Before deciding to bid
GovBidFit lets you browse federal contract opportunities for free and create free bid alerts. It displays public SAM.gov notice data stored in its database, with a compact snapshot as a fallback. GovBidFit is independent and is not a U.S. government website. Data can lag amendments or later source changes, so always verify the current notice, attachments and deadline on SAM.gov before bidding.
