Significant Contract Modifications ($10M+) — July 26, 2026

Significant Contract Modifications ($10M+)

By Gunpowder Editorial ·

2 total filings analysed

Executive Summary

Over the single-day period of July 26, 2026, two civilian agency contracts totaling $293.96 million were awarded, with zero defense-related obligations.

The dominant theme is federal support for border-related infrastructure and workforce training, led by a $156.8M Department of Interior award to DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC for facilities support at a Texas Influx Care Facility, and a $137.1M Department of Labor award to MANAGEMENT & TRAINING CORPORATION for Job Corps operations. The highest-conviction signal is the massive $2.8B potential upside in the DEPLOYED SERVICES contract if all options are exercised, though the two-year base period and time-and-materials pricing introduce execution and revenue visibility risks. Investors should watch for option exercises at the Carrizo Springs facility and the January 2024 re-compete for the MTC Job Corps contract as key catalysts.

Investment Signals (3)

  • DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC: $2.8B potential upside from option exercises at Carrizo Springs facility (MEDIUM)

    The $156.8M base award to DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC has a total potential value of $2.8B if all options are exercised, representing a 17.9x revenue multiplier. This is a significant near-term catalyst for the company's revenue growth, contingent on government needs at the Influx Care Facility.

  • MANAGEMENT & TRAINING CORPORATION: $137.1M Job Corps contract faces January 2024 re-compete risk (HIGH)

    MTC's $137.1M cost-plus-incentive-fee contract at Earle C. Clements Job Corps Center expires January 2024, with only $97M outlayed to date. The full-and-open competition structure means MTC could lose the follow-on award, creating revenue discontinuity risk.

  • DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC: Veteran-Owned small business status provides competitive advantages (MEDIUM)

    As a Veteran-Owned small business, DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC may benefit from future set-aside contracts, though this specific award was not set aside. The $156.8M win demonstrates capability to compete in full-and-open competitions, signaling growth potential beyond set-aside programs.

Risk Flags (3)

  • DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC: Single-location, two-year performance period concentrates revenue risk [HIGH RISK]

    The $156.8M award is limited to a single facility in Carrizo Springs, TX, with a two-year performance period (2023-2025). Any disruption at this location—political, operational, or budgetary—could materially impact DEPLOYED SERVICES' revenue stream.

  • DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC: Time-and-materials pricing introduces cost risk [MEDIUM RISK]

    The time-and-materials contract structure means DEPLOYED SERVICES bears some cost risk, with fixed profit rates but reimbursable costs. Labor or material cost inflation could compress margins, especially given the border facility's operational intensity.

  • MANAGEMENT & TRAINING CORPORATION: DOL Job Corps funding faces periodic political debate [MEDIUM RISK]

    Job Corps programs have bipartisan support but face periodic funding debates in Congress. The $137.1M contract's cost-plus structure reduces profit risk, but any budget cuts could impact option exercises or follow-on awards.

Opportunities (3)

  • DEPLOYED SERVICES, LLC: Option exercises could multiply revenue 17.9x

    The $2.8B total potential value of the DEPLOYED SERVICES contract, if all options are exercised, represents a massive growth opportunity. Investors should monitor for option exercise announcements as a key catalyst.

  • Border infrastructure spending: Stable or growing DOI investment in Influx Care Facilities

    The $156.8M award to DEPLOYED SERVICES suggests sustained or increasing federal spending on border-related facilities support. This creates opportunities for other facilities support contractors with border region presence.

  • Veteran-Owned small business set-aside opportunities for DEPLOYED SERVICES

    DEPLOYED SERVICES' Veteran-Owned status positions it for future set-aside contracts, even though this award was full-and-open. The company could leverage this win for additional preferential awards.

Sector Themes (2)

  • Both contracts—$156.8M to DEPLOYED SERVICES for facilities support and $137.1M to MTC for educational operations—demonstrate sustained civilian agency spending on operational services, despite budget uncertainty. The combined $293.96M in a single day underscores the scale of non-defense procurement.

  • The $156.8M DOI award to DEPLOYED SERVICES for an Influx Care Facility in Carrizo Springs, TX, signals continued or expanding federal investment in border-related infrastructure. The $2.8B total potential value indicates this could be a multi-year spending priority.
