How reviews work
If two pages disagree, that line stays empty.
A review is a reading of the official listing. It is not your bid. We only fill a field when we can point to one place on the notice. If Section C says 12 months and an attachment says 18, that field stays blank. You open the PDF and decide.
On the notice
Section C says period of performance is 12 months. An attachment says 18 months with no amendment.
What you get
- Cited: agency, NAICS, due date from the notice row
- Blank: period of performance: the package disagrees
- Next: open the PDF. Do not staff a proposal on the blank.
What Pro saves
See who won last time, without a whole day of digging.
The government already publishes who won. Looking that up by yourself can take wasted hours. The Pro plan puts the winners, dollar amounts, and when similar awards end, all on one screen for you.
By hand
Open USAspending. Filter NAICS. Export. Match solicitation IDs. Look up each incumbent. Repeat when an amendment drops.
On Pro
Pick the notice. See who won work like this, what they were paid, and when similar awards end. Then decide whether to bid.
