Every new federal construction bid, every weekday morning.

What lands every weekday

New in the last 24 hours. Every construction and A/E notice from every federal agency, including the Department of War, the VA and GSA PBS, that posted since the last scan: solicitations, presolicitations, sources sought, RFIs, special notices and awards. Monday's scan covers Friday morning through Sunday.

Deadlines in the next seven days. Every response date coming up, soonest first, each linked to its notice, with a calendar file so you can drop the ones you care about into Google, Outlook, Teams or Apple Calendar.

Nothing twice. A notice you were already sent does not come back as new. It reappears only if something changes, such as a moved date, an amendment or a cancellation, and then it is marked as changed.

Your filters. Choose your agencies (DoW, VA, GSA PBS) and regions. If nothing matches on a given day, we do not send an empty email.

5 market research reports a month. Pick any five of our market research reports on active sources sought each month: who the office buys from, how the work is set aside, the firms and their designations, the regional market, subcontractors and material costs, with the Excel data behind every exhibit. Bought on their own, five a month is $19.99.

Who it's for

General contractors, A/E firms and specialty subcontractors that bid DoW, VA or GSA PBS work, and the BD and capture staff who have to know about a notice before the response window closes. If you only want the weekly picture, the free Monday edition is still the place to start.

How it works

Subscribe through Stripe. You are charged when you subscribe. We email you to set your agencies and regions; until you do, you get everything.

It goes to the email address you use at checkout. The Monday newsletter stays free, and you keep getting it.

Already on the annual subscription ($1,650 a year)? Base Bid Pro is included, so you do not need to buy it separately.

Need an invoice or a purchase order? Email hello@thebasebid.com and we will send one at the listed price.

What it is not

No ads and no sponsored items. We name companies only from award records and never say why a firm won or lost. Every item links to its notice on SAM.gov, so confirm the time, time zone and any amendment there before you submit.
