Insight
PSC Q403 obligated amount is highly concentrated in FY 2025, which accounts for 13.55 billion of the 28.88 billion total over the last 5 years, or nearly half of all obligations. Prior years show a lower but still material obligation base, rising from 2.82 billion in FY 2021 to 2.89 billion in FY 2022, 3.53 billion in FY 2023, and 6.09 billion in FY 2024 before the sharp increase in FY 2025. Award counts are relatively stable in FYs 2022-2025, ranging from 653 to 686, with FY 2021 higher at 782, indicating the recent obligation growth is driven more by larger award values than by a sustained increase in award volume.
