Award
Not yet. Typical award: Oct 26, 2026 to Jan 25, 2027, middle of the range Nov 28, 2026.
Measured from 4901 past early notices at Veterans Affairs, Department of that later posted an award (middle half of cases, counted from Sep 28, 2026).
Responses are due Dec 9, 2026, so an award before then is unlikely; past cases include short solicitations.

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.
