Contract Deobligations Alert — October 19, 2026

Only $5,989,880 of the $64,414,734 obligation (about 9.3%) has been outlayed on a firm-fixed-price contract with an end date of 2028-02-06, so cost overruns fall on the contractor. Schedule slippage or change-order activity would be the key signals to monitor.

IT Concepts' SSA BPA call order has $118,318,718 of its $118,377,479 obligation outlayed, while the base-plus-options value of $141,793,859 implies roughly $23.4M of unobligated option value and an extension to 2027-02-28. Option exercise or a follow-on order would be a near-term catalyst.

Veterans Evaluation Services, Inc.'s $111,738,034 VA Region 3 delivery order covers a single performance year ending 2022-09-30 with no options listed, implying the revenue stream is non-recurring unless re-awarded. Outlays of $111,194,546 indicate near-complete utilization.

INSIGHTS TRAINING GROUP, LLC's small-business set-aside DOL contract has $42,040,594 outlayed (about 90% of the $46,659,999 obligation) and roughly $9.3M of options not yet obligated against a 2027-06-30 end date. Option exercise would extend the revenue stream.

MELE ASSOCIATES INC's DOE/NNSA time-and-materials order carries a small-business set-aside designation while the recipient is listed as not designated small, and only about 25% of the $184,315,416 ceiling is obligated. Status verification and option exercise are open questions.

IT Concepts ($118.4M) and STRUCTSURE ($64.4M) both won full-and-open, non-set-aside competitions, indicating success against broad competitor pools. Public-market status of either recipient is not established in the data, limiting investability conclusions.

The Regents of the University of Colorado hold a $49,430,922 NASA Goddard cost-no-fee sole-source award with roughly 58% of the $68,179,012 ceiling outlayed, with no investable parent identified. The award is relevant as a sector signal for Earth science data funding only.

STRUCTSURE PROJECTS INC's firm-fixed-price FAA tower construction has only 9.3% outlayed against a 2028-02-06 end date, concentrating execution and cost risk on the contractor.

Five of six awards are civilian with no multi-year budget trend data provided, so funding continuity across SSA, VA, FAA, NASA, and DOL cannot be assessed from this data.

Veterans Evaluation Services' VA Region 3 award ran with no visible follow-on, and whether the re-award is competed or consolidated is unknown.

MELE ASSOCIATES' small-business set-aside designation conflicts with its 'Not Designated a Small Business' recipient label, creating a potential compliance and eligibility question.

IT Concepts' SSA order is the largest single award in the set at 27% of aggregate obligation, with near-full outlay and unconfirmed option value.

IT Concepts' SSA modernization vehicle could yield follow-on task orders as the BPA extends to 2027-02-28 with $23.4M of option value unconfirmed.

VA Medical Disability Examination work may be re-solicited after the 2022-09-30 expiry, offering re-award potential for Veterans Evaluation Services and competitors.

INSIGHTS TRAINING GROUP's total small-business set-aside Job Corps award may be recompeted for the Cincinnati center ahead of 2027-06-30, favoring small-business bidders.

MELE ASSOCIATES' NNSA counterterrorism task order has $138.5M of unobligated ceiling, indicating potential defense-adjacent expansion through additional funding actions.

STRUCTSURE's FAA tower program may generate follow-on aviation infrastructure awards as additional towers are funded.

Five of six awards ($387.5M of $436.4M, about 89%) are civilian, spanning SSA, VA, FAA, NASA, and DOL, with IT services, medical examination, construction, research, and training work represented.

STRUCTSURE's $64.4M FAA tower build is firm fixed price with only 9.3% outlayed, placing cost and schedule risk on the contractor over roughly 29 months.

Only MELE ASSOCIATES' $45.8M NNSA counterterrorism task order is defense-related, and it is time-and-materials with about 25% of its ceiling obligated.
