How Much to Bid? This Tool Tells You Instantly

Knowing how much to bid is the hardest part of getting into government contracting: bid high and you lose, bid low and you win work that loses money. This short shows the way out.

SAMstream’s Archive Search has cataloged federal award data since 1975. Search any type of work and see what contracts actually went for and who won them, then price your own bid against real history instead of guesses. Users routinely pull the last award, adjust for inflation, and land within striking distance of the winning number.

Go deeper with the Archive Search tutorial and our guide to bidding smarter with past contract data. Then see how SAMstream works: the free Sunday webinar plus a 7-day trial means you can test it on a real bid.
