NMAH: 2027 Install Emergency Generator
What this bid is
The Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of American History is seeking responses for installing an emergency generator, with the work located in Arlington, DC.

The notice also says federal bidding requires an active SAM.gov registration with a Unique Entity ID before any award, so that should be started early. Whether any bid is accepted is decided by the agency.
