What the notice says
In accordance with FAR 6.301, the Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Pacific is posting the Justification and Approval for a sole-source contract that has been awarded to 6 Axis, LLC. The award was for the procurement of four (4) complete power refresh kits for the upgrade and modernization of the custom electrical power generation, storage, and control systems supporting the VLP autonomous operations. The sole-source action was justified based on the contractors proprietary ownership and design control of the fielded systems. This is a logical follow-on for previously completed work.

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.

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.
