MAPSS is MDA�s fourth generation professional services program providing Advisory and Assistance Services support for the Agency.

Requirements structure, NAICS Codes, small business set-aside decisions, and other elements of the strategy informed by market conditions will be determined based on current market research during planning for each tranche. As part of the market research for the first tranche, MDA is evaluating the potential use of the General Services Administration�s (GSA) OASIS+ Best-in-Class (BIC) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multi-Agency Contracts (MAC). Industry is encouraged to prepare and posture themselves to compete in this environment in the event that MDA determines that the OASIS+ Contracts best accommodate the Government�s requirements. Vendors interested in learning more about OASIS+ can find information on GSA�s Interact Portal (https://buy.gsa.gov/interact/community/196/activity-feed). THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION. The Government is not requesting responses to this notice. Further notifications, market research, and solicitation activities for requirements under the MAPSS Program will be posted at a later time.

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.

Investor context
  • $LMT reported $67.6B revenue in FY2025. The median single-winner award in these 29 past awards, $499.6M, is 0.7% of that. 10-K
