Good evening everyone, I'm Michael from Central Florida were it's brutally cold lol. Fairly new to Government Contracting trying to learn as much as possible so I can end the 9 to 5 rat race one day Let's Go!

Hello everyone Just asking for some feedback on a few things 1 If the quote I am getting from the approved source is coming out higher but they don't bid on the contract. Should I put the bid in anyway since its a few months old. Do I get penalized if my quote is higher than what. The government paid before. 2 If the delivery time on the product to my warehouse is longer, Than the delivery time they are asking for. Is it a problem that I make the time to fulfill longer than what they are asking for. When I place the bid? 3 If the approved source has a cage but does not bid on the contract. Is it wise to ask if they can ship it into the DLA or would they jump on the contract?

Has anyone dealt with a locked Dibbs account? What were your experiences like in getting it unlocked? Was it simple?

Just got my first award notification 📣 we cooking now ! Keep bidding yall !

Starting sending out quote requests on Friday. Got my first answer back. Took a chance saw that source had won on a contract before. Price came in much higher than it had been before. My question is last time vendor filled the contract was 2023. Should I still put the bid in but this time with a higher price and just see what happens?
