Insight
PSC 1905 obligations were highly concentrated in the last full year, with ELECTRIC BOAT CORPORATION accounting for $17.30 billion of $30.29 billion total obligated, or more than half of the category’s spend. The next largest obligations were split among several shipbuilders, including multiple Huntington Ingalls entries, BATH IRON WORKS CORPORATION, and AUSTAL USA, LLC, indicating a vendor base dominated by a small number of large, recurring awards. The average award value of $10.61 million across 2,854 awards suggests a mix of a few very large obligations and many smaller transactions.
