3 Common Mistakes Beginners Make When Reading Solicitations (and How to Avoid Them)
If you’re new to DLA or government contracting, it’s easy to miss small details that end up costing you bids.
1️⃣ Skipping the fine print — Overlooking packaging, inspection, or delivery terms that can instantly disqualify your quote.
2️⃣ Ignoring procurement history — Missing valuable insights from past awards that reveal pricing trends and winning patterns.
3️⃣ Bidding on the wrong solicitations — Submitting offers on items that require certifications, testing, or traceability you can’t provide.
Mastering these early on means fewer wasted bids, faster wins, and a smoother path to your first DLA contract.
