Mega Contracts Monitor ($100M+) — July 31, 2026

This cost-plus-fixed-fee award from NIH runs through July 2026, providing nearly a decade of predictable, low-risk revenue for a small, woman-owned, Hispanic American-owned business. The full-and-open competition win signals competitive merit and a potential pipeline for follow-on work.

The largest contract in this digest, but the 8-month performance period and cost-plus structure limit margin upside and revenue duration. Only $125.4 million has been outlaid so far, indicating potential funding flow risk.

This cost-plus-fixed-fee contract, a total small business set-aside, is now completed (ended March 2021). No current revenue contribution, but the win demonstrates competitive positioning for future NASA R&D awards.

This cost-plus-award-fee contract ended in 2016 with $0 outlayed, providing no current revenue. However, the large base value highlights past significance and Serco's historical position in DHS administrative services.

Central Plateau Cleanup Company's $371.6M DOE Hanford contract has only $125.4M outlaid despite a $371.6M obligation, suggesting potential funding flow delays or execution challenges at the Hanford site.

All four contracts are civilian (DOE, DHS, NASA, HHS), with zero defense exposure. This creates a sector concentration risk for investors focused on government services, as defense spending cycles differ materially from civilian agency funding.

Serco Services Inc., a foreign-owned entity, may face eligibility challenges for future DHS set-aside contracts, limiting its pipeline in administrative services despite past wins.

Technical Resources International's $173.3M NIH contract through 2026 provides a stable base for growth, with potential for modifications or follow-on awards given the company's small, woman-owned status and competitive win record.

Millennium Engineering and Integration Services' $202.6M NASA small business set-aside win demonstrates that small businesses can capture large, long-duration R&D contracts. This validates the small business set-aside strategy for investors tracking NASA's engineering support pipeline.

Central Plateau Cleanup Company's $371.6M DOE award, despite short duration, signals continued federal investment in Hanford environmental remediation. Options exercise or follow-on contracts could extend revenue for PAE-Parsons.

Three of four contracts (DOE Hanford, NIH clinical research, NASA engineering support) are cost-plus structures, totaling $747.5 million. This reflects a civilian agency preference for cost-reimbursable contracts in complex, long-duration R&D and remediation work, reducing contractor profit risk but capping upside.

Millennium Engineering and Integration Services' $202.6M small business set-aside win at NASA Ames demonstrates that small businesses can secure large, long-duration R&D contracts. This validates the small business set-aside strategy for investors tracking NASA's engineering support pipeline.
