Executive Summary
DHS dominates with $2.28B in mega-contracts for shipbuilding (Bollinger $2.08B, Birdon $106M) and border barriers (BCCG $105M), signaling sustained homeland security capex through 2034. Six bullish signals highlight construction and IT/services momentum, with $3.84B total obligations and $1.0B+ in unexercised options for upside. HHS awards ($337M) provide steady health services funding to 2029, though neutral equity impact from nonprofit recipient.
