About PSC 7030 federal contract activity
PSC 7030, Information Technology Software, accounts for 37.52 billion in obligated dollars across 174,572 awards over the last 10 years, with an average award value of 214,950.39. The volume of awards and the scale of obligations indicate a broad software procurement base spanning enterprise licenses, subscriptions, maintenance, and related IT software buying patterns. This PSC is one of the most active software categories in FPDS by both transaction count and total dollars.
Agency demand and leading federal buyers
The Department of the Navy, Department of the Army, and Department of the Air Force are the largest obligating agencies in this PSC, each exceeding 3.7 billion in total obligations over the analysis period. DISA also ranks among the top obligators at 2.52 billion, reflecting its central role in enterprise IT services and software acquisition. The Social Security Administration rounds out the top five with 2.26 billion, showing that software spending is concentrated in both defense and civilian mission environments.
Vendor concentration and leading contractors
CARAHSOFT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION leads vendor obligations at 1.53 billion and 3,519 awards, making it the most prolific supplier in this PSC by both dollars and award count. LEIDOS, INC. has a comparable dollar total at 1.40 billion but far fewer awards, suggesting larger individual awards than the other leading resellers. INSIGHT PUBLIC SECTOR, INC., DELL FEDERAL SYSTEMS L.P., and DLT SOLUTIONS, LLC also hold substantial positions, reinforcing the dominance of major software resellers and integrators in federal software purchasing.
Annual contract trend over the analysis window
Obligations have declined sharply in the most recent years shown, falling from 2.73 billion in 2021 to 1.74 billion in 2022, 969.08 million in 2023, 486.51 million in 2024, and 149.86 million in 2025 to date. Award counts followed the same pattern, indicating a broad reduction in both transaction volume and obligated dollars rather than a shift toward larger, fewer awards. The trend suggests a post-2021 contraction in software spending within this PSC, though 2025 is likely incomplete.
How to interpret this page
This analysis is based on FPDS awards coded to PSC 7030 over the last 10 years and summarizes obligated dollars, award counts, and average award value. Agency and vendor rankings reflect total obligated amount within the selected PSC, and annual trend figures show obligations and award counts by fiscal year. Values are reported as provided and should be interpreted as FPDS obligation data, not outlays or contract ceiling values.
