Not yet. Typical award: Oct 7, 2026 to Feb 8, 2027, middle of the range Oct 29, 2026.

Responses are due Nov 5, 2026, so an award before then is unlikely; past cases include short solicitations.

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.
