Single-winner award sizes (3): middle half $6K to $86K, median $8K; range $4K to $163K.
| Winner | Awards | Value | Last |
|---|---|---|---|
| SIMTECH, INC | 1 | $163K | Jul 14, 2026 |
| HOWELL INSTRUMENTS, INC. | 1 | $8K | Jul 7, 2026 |
| TESTVONICS INC · $TDG · $10.0B | 1 | $4K | Aug 21, 2026 |
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.
- $TDG reported $10.0B revenue (12 months to Jun 27, 2026). The median single-winner award in these 3 past awards, $8K, 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.

Materiality: one award's value as a share of the winner's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings (or its last fiscal year, as noted when you point at it). Low under 1%, Medium 1 to 5%, High 5% or more. Many awards are paid over several years, so this overstates a single year's share.
