What the notice says
The contract award, which includes two (2) option years, is for the scientific research and development of an Augur Shield system, an advanced capability for countering frequency-agile Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). This effort will deliver an innovative Radio Frequency (RF) DevOps pipeline that can utilize a network of multi-domain sensors. This system will enable the rapid characterization of RF signatures from new and unknown drone threats, therefore enabling the Army to more effectively detect and respond to advanced aerial threats and enhance force protection.

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.
- $ASGN reported $4.5B revenue in FY2025. The median single-winner award in these 15 past awards, $47.8M, is 1% of that. 10-K
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.
