Z2JZ – 676-328- Renovation of La Crosse Home 3

Awarded 2021-08-16 — 45 days before fiscal year end (Sep 30). End-of-year awards often have compressed timelines and reduced oversight.

This contract has unrealized obligation backlog — funds committed but work not yet performed. This can indicate project delays or budget holds.

Post-award modifications total 82% of the original award. Change orders exceeding 50% suggest scope creep, poor initial estimates, or intentional low-bidding.

Contract value is just below a simplified acquisition threshold. Contracts priced just below review thresholds may indicate structuring to avoid oversight.
