Award
Not yet. Typical award: Oct 30, 2026 to Feb 28, 2027, middle of the range Dec 13, 2026.
Measured from 2442 past early notices at Defense Logistics Agency that later posted an award (middle half of cases, counted from Aug 13, 2026).
Responses are due Nov 1, 2026, so an award before then is unlikely; past cases include short solicitations.

What the notice says

Based on market research, DLA Energy has identified Bestpass as the only responsible source capable of providing the required nationwide toll monitoring and payment services. The Government's requirement necessitates a single, comprehensive solution that integrates with all major U.S. tolling systems to support a geographically dispersed vehicle fleet. Bestpass Inc. is the sole provider of a proprietary, all-in-one transponder and consolidated payment platform that meets this critical need.

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.
