About INSTITUTE FOR DEFENSE ANALYSES federal contract activity
INSTITUTE FOR DEFENSE ANALYSES (CAGE 7A293, UEI JM98J68UPRK1) recorded $221.82 million in obligations across 79 awards in the last full year, for an average award value of $2.81 million. The profile is highly concentrated, with one agency accounting for the clear majority of activity and most awards reflecting professional and technical services work.
Agency mix and customer concentration
WASHINGTON HEADQUARTERS SERVICES (WHS) dominated the vendor’s federal spend, obligating $213.60 million across 45 awards, or roughly 96% of total obligations. The remaining activity was distributed across a small set of agencies led by the National Science Foundation at $3.66 million over 15 awards, followed by the Office of Procurement Operations and USDA Departmental Administration at materially lower levels. This mix indicates a narrow customer base with one primary buying relationship and limited secondary agency diversification.
Industry profile based on NAICS activity
The vendor’s obligations were overwhelmingly recorded under NAICS 541990, All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services, which accounted for essentially all positive obligated value at $221.83 million across 78 awards. A single negative-value transaction appears under NAICS 561499, All Other Business Support Services, reducing net obligations slightly but not altering the overall category concentration. The NAICS profile therefore reflects a specialized service relationship rather than a broad cross-sector contracting footprint.
Annual contract trend over the analysis window
Annual activity in the last full year totaled $221.82 million across 79 awards, and the provided window contains only one year of data. With no prior-year comparator in the dataset, the trend view supports a level assessment rather than a directional growth or decline analysis. The concentration of obligations in that single year suggests sustained, large-scale award activity within the period.
