High-Value Federal Grants ($5M+) — October 23, 2026

Booz Allen Hamilton received a $1,138,891,386 award from the Department of Veterans Affairs, the largest single record and roughly 54% of the $2.1B aggregate. The record lacks pricing, competition, and revenue detail, so the award's durability and margin profile cannot be verified from this data.

Space Exploration Technologies Corp. holds a firm-fixed-price NASA Gateway Logistics award with a $7,000,000,000 base-plus-options ceiling but only $127,924,073 obligated, so option exercises and incremental funding are the key catalysts. Outlays of $114.7M indicate most current obligation is already being executed.

Amentum Technology, Inc. (parent Amentum Holdings Inc.) received a $36,896,560 firm-fixed-price NASA Langley CMOE-II facilities support delivery order running 2026-10-01 to 2028-09-30, won under full and open competition. Outlays are $0 pending performance start, so realization should be tracked against monthly outlays.

AT&T Enterprises, LLC (parent AT&T Inc) holds an EPA delivery order with $52,380,319 obligated against a $362,054,296 base-plus-options value, with $42,429,556 (about 81% of obligation) outlayed. The potential 2032 end date offers multi-year visibility, but the contract is not material to the parent on its own.

Sentinel Group LLC's $40,614,444 VA firm-fixed-price delivery order and Makwa Global Security Solutions' $36,226,325 State Department time-and-materials order are both rated high pricing risk. Makwa's order is non-competed with $0 outlayed and a single one-year period, so its recurring value is uncertain.

Amazon Web Services received an $83,417,225 non-competed DHS/CISA firm-fixed-price delivery order for cloud hosting, with a potential end of 2028-08-31. The award is modest relative to AWS's scale and carries $0 outlays at present, but it reinforces ongoing federal cloud demand.

Clark Construction Group LLC received a $117,000,000 CBP firm-fixed-price design-build delivery order for a Las Cruces, NM Border Patrol station with a 2029-09-01 end date. Outlays are $0 and the parent's public status is not stated, so investment exposure is unclear.

Many large headline values show very low realized outlays against much larger ceilings, including SpaceX ($127.9M obligated, $7B ceiling), AT&T EPA ($52.4M obligated, $362.1M ceiling), and Deloitte CDC ($30.3M obligated, $55.8M ceiling). Headline values materially overstate committed revenue.

Makwa Global Security Solutions' $36.2M State Department order was awarded without competition, with the basis unexplained in the data, creating protest exposure. Adelante Development Center's $31.8M DHS/FLETC order is also sole-source under the AbilityOne program.

Several awards lack any budget trend context, and the Welch Allyn VA order has an award date (2026-10-20) falling after its stated performance period (2026-09-01 to 2026-09-30), an inconsistency that undermines confidence in the record.

The aggregate is dominated by one award: Booz Allen's $1.14B VA contract is roughly 54% of total obligation, so stream-level value is highly concentrated.

AWS's non-competed DHS/CISA cloud hosting order ($83.4M) could extend into a follow-on delivery order stream if CISA continues sole-source cloud procurement.

SpaceX's Gateway Logistics award carries a $7B ceiling against $127.9M obligated, so a large share of potential value is unfunded and could be added through incremental funding.

Amentum's NASA Langley facilities order ($36.9M) begins performance October 1, 2026, creating a near-term revenue ramp for a large-contractor facilities franchise.

Multiple awards in this stream fund facilities work: Clark Construction's $117M CBP border station, the Veterans Development Corporation $63.1M VA HVAC replacement, and Amentum's $36.9M NASA facilities order. Evidence points to continued civilian facilities investment, though no multi-year budget trend is established in the data.

IT services and cloud awards cluster in this stream: AWS's $83.4M CISA cloud order, Information Management Services' $27.7M NIH IT delivery order, Deloitte's $30.3M CDC IT order, and ECS Federal's $50.6M DOJ/FBI application support BPA. These awards show steady demand for labor-based and cloud IT services across civilian agencies.

Only 1 of 20 records is defense-related, so this high-value civilian stream offers limited direct exposure to defense primes and speaks more to VA, DHS, and civilian agency services spending.
