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.

Investor context
  • $BAH reported $11.1B revenue (12 months to Jun 30, 2026). The median single-winner award in these 81 past awards, $6.7M, is under 0.1% of that. SEC filing
  • $NOC reported $42.9B revenue (12 months to Jun 30, 2026). The median single-winner award in these 81 past awards, $6.7M, is under 0.1% of that. SEC filing
  • $ASGN reported $4.0B revenue (12 months to Jun 30, 2026). The median single-winner award in these 81 past awards, $6.7M, is 0.2% of that. SEC filing
  • $LDOS reported $17.6B revenue (12 months to Jul 3, 2026). The median single-winner award in these 81 past awards, $6.7M, is under 0.1% of that. SEC filing

One award's total value against one year of revenue; many awards are paid over several years.
