New Federal Contractors — October 30, 2026

Perini Management Services, a subsidiary of Tutor Perini (TPC), was awarded a $69.5M definitive contract by the National Park Service for water/wastewater treatment rehabilitation in Death Valley, CA, running July 2026 to March 2029 under full and open competition.

The non-competed firm-fixed-price delivery order has $192.1M in unexercised option value and $0 outlayed, with potential performance through April 2029; option exercises could drive significant revenue for the private SDVOSB.

SAIC's GSA FAS delivery order reports 53 subawards totaling $126.4M, nearly double the $66.6M prime obligation, and a negative total outlayed figure of -$65,728, complicating net revenue attribution.

HSAG ($80.6M), TMF Health Quality Institute ($77.5M), Health Quality Innovators ($76.7M), and Telligen ($73.7M) each received five-year cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery orders from CMS, with only 12-18% outlayed to date, indicating future funding releases.

Signature Choice III's $226.1M VA award was not competed and carries no set-aside, despite the recipient's SDVOSB status, creating protest vulnerability and uncertainty over how veteran-owned status was applied.

Perini Management Services' $69.5M firm-fixed-price contract for Death Valley water systems places cost-overrun risk on the contractor, with $0 outlayed and an award date in the future (2026-07-20).

Four CMS Medicare consulting contracts totaling $308.5M have only 12-18% outlayed, leaving most revenue contingent on option exercises and future appropriations, with performance through 2030.

HHS/CMS accounts for 4 of 8 contracts and $308.5M (41.6% of total value), creating agency concentration risk for contractors dependent on Medicare advisory spending.

Tutor Perini's Perini Management Services can build backlog and revenue from the $69.5M NPS water infrastructure contract, with potential for follow-on Interior Department work.

Signature Choice III could realize up to $418.2M if all options are exercised on the VA claims processing delivery order, with $192.1M in unexercised option value.

CMS Medicare quality contractors (HSAG, TMF, Health Quality Innovators, Telligen) have substantial remaining funding to be released, with only $49.7M outlayed against $308.5M in obligations.

CMS awarded four five-year cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery orders totaling $308.5M for Medicare quality and consulting services, indicating sustained demand for external advisory support.

The VA awarded a $226.1M non-competed delivery order to Signature Choice III for claims and customer services, signaling potential outsourcing of benefits administration.

The National Park Service awarded a $69.5M firm-fixed-price contract to Perini Management Services for water/wastewater treatment rehabilitation, reflecting ongoing investment in aging federal facilities.
