Executive Summary

The sole contract recorded for May 19, 2026, is a $116.2M cost-plus-award-fee delivery order awarded to Booz Allen Hamilton by the General Services Administration (GSA) FEDSIM for civil-military support services. This is a civilian agency award with no defense-related component, and the aggregate obligation of $116.2M carries a neutral signal strength of 5/10.

The contract's negative outlay (-$287K) and minimal subawards suggest negligible revenue recognized to date, limiting near-term financial impact. Key risks include award fee variability under cost-plus pricing and execution uncertainty given the low outlay, while the fully competed nature confirms Booz Allen's competitive positioning in professional support services.
