What the notice says

Who won similar work

10 award notices on SAM.gov in the last 24 months. Matched by: Same office (FA8571 MAINT CONTRACTING AFSC PZIM), same NAICS 334515.

Single-winner award sizes (10): middle half $258K to $5.2M, median $491K; range $19K to $20.2M.

Value counts single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling; that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's last annual revenue from its 10-K.
