NextBid

The opportunity. The source documents. Already read.

Tell your AI what you are looking for: roofing work in Texas, concrete repair in California, janitorial contracts due this month, SDVOSB set-asides in your trade. NextBid returns the solicitations that match, classified by trade, with the agency, the deadline, the official link and, when source documents are available, their text. REST for software. MCP for agents. Same records. Same meter. Eleven tools, one key.

Coverage: Federal, state and local opportunities across the U.S., plus U.S. federal work abroad. State and local coverage is expanding, starting in California. Every record links to its official notice and shows when its source was last checked. The issuing agency's official notice always controls.

112 low-voltage solicitations close in the next 30 days. In Florida, one is the Sanford Airport PA system upgrade (NB00219238): bids are due Sep 29 at 2:00 pm ET, Q&A closed Sep 22, and the notice asks for an AtlasIED-authorized integrator with a staffed Florida office. Scope is 18 microphones, 10 amplifiers and 2 controllers over 7 comms rooms, keeping the 70-volt speakers. Two addenda were issued; I read Addendum 2. Contract terms are in Attachment C.

ContractorAnything in the addenda that changes the bid form?

list_files NB00219238read_file Addendum #2 Revision

Addendum 2 is a full revision of the specification with 134 sections; section 2.3 restates the upgrade scope and 2.2 lists the existing-system documentation the as-builts must be checked against. I found no change to the bid form itself. Confirm with the procurement officer before submitting.
