Who won similar work

12 award notices on SAM.gov in the last 24 months. Matched by: Same office (USDA AMS 3J14), same product/service code (PSC) 8915 and NAICS 311423.

Single-winner award sizes (12): middle half $2.8M to $9.9M, median $5.3M; range $1.3M to $20.6M.

Value counts new single-winner awards. "Shared" awards are multiple-award contracts that list every winner with the same total ceiling (same contract, or the same office, day and amount); that ceiling is not one company's win, so it is not added in. Contract modifications are not new awards and are not added in either. Notices whose amount is a placeholder such as $999,999,999 are not added in. Revenue next to a ticker is the company's revenue over the latest 12 months in its SEC filings.
