Research a service opportunity: dated custodial example
Application paths: Main Menu → Primary Searches → Research All Open Solicitations; then Main Menu → Research → Award History.
Dated review lesson · Observed 9 October 2026 · 7 minutes 59 seconds. Follow a Memphis-area interior-cleaning firm's research question across solicitation search, the original publisher record, Award History and a stop-or-monitor decision. The video assembles actual captured screen states into an edited lesson; it is not an uninterrupted screen recording. This is one business case in the training library, not complete coverage of every application feature or business type.

The official Current Record for HQC00826QE006 was canceled effective 2 September 2026; the earlier linked version displayed an October due date. The lesson therefore does not present that notice as an open bid. The separate award example is historical: HDEC0821C0028 / P00033 shows a $228,071.24 action obligation and a 2026 completion date, not an announced recompete. A different NAICS 561720 search shows a grouped $12,038 total made from four actions, including a negative adjustment; it is not a result from the custodial/Memphis keyword search.
What remains to verify: The video locates Export To Excel, but no downloaded workbook for the exact custodial/Memphis criteria was inspected. Its sheet names, row count and values are not taught as facts. No contracting-office profile or current officer was opened in this case, and no message, folder or saved alert was created. Before pursuing any opportunity, reopen the current official notice and check scope, status, eligibility and deadline.
For field-by-field guidance, see solicitation search, solicitation results, award search, award results and award detail. The custodial business walkthrough develops the fit decision, while the recorded workbook reference explains a separate dated export example; that workbook is not this search's export.
