Frequently Asked Questions (Contractor FAQ)

Q1: Do I need an active SAM.gov registration or CAGE code to bid these contracts?
No for over 70% of county, municipal, school district, water authority, and airport on-call contracts (like Dakota County or BWI Airport), which only require local vendor registration and standard shop insurance. For federal VA/DoD jobs, we flag SAM.gov requirements in the Go/No-Go summary—and our $99 Done-For-You Capability Statement preps your federal profile.
Q2: Do the T&M Estimator and AWS D1.1 / NFPA 51B forms work on my phone or truck iPad?
Yes. You get browser-based mobile calculators plus unlocked Excel (.xlsx / .csv), Google Sheets, and printable Word/PDF templates you can text or email straight from the jobsite.
Q3: How do I filter the Daily 7:00 AM Digest for my state and trade?
Right after checkout (or by forwarding your last BidRanger alert email to ironbidhq@gmail.com), you select your coverage area (single state, multi-state region, or nationwide) and trades (Structural/Mobile Welding, Pipe/Mechanical, Millwright/Industrial Maintenance, Commercial HVAC/Boiler).
Q4: How does the $99 Custom SAM.gov Capability Statement fulfillment work?
At checkout, you enter your shop name, certs (AWS, ASME, HVAC), equipment list (e.g., mobile rig, Miller Trailblazer/Bobcat, TIG/Stick capabilities), and hourly rates in our 60-second intake box. We build and deliver your custom 1-page Capability Statement PDF within 24 hours.
Q5: How do the 1-Click Cancel and 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee work?
Every daily email includes a 1-click manage/cancel link, and if IronBid Pro doesn't save you hours on your very first bid, reply to any email or write ironbidhq@gmail.com within 30 days for a 100% no-questions-asked refund.
