Agency mix and customer concentration

The Department of the Air Force and Defense Logistics Agency are meaningful secondary customers, while the negative obligated total shown for DCMA suggests contract deobligations, closeouts, or downward adjustments during the period.
Industry profile based on NAICS activity
Award activity is concentrated in aircraft-related manufacturing, led by NAICS 336411 Aircraft Manufacturing at 4.97 billion and NAICS 336413 Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing at 3.33 billion. Smaller but relevant volumes appear in engineering services, R&D in physical and engineering sciences, and guidance/navigation systems manufacturing, consistent with a platform, systems, and support portfolio.
Annual contract trend over the analysis window
Obligations peaked in 2024 at 2.18 billion, then declined to 1.39 billion in 2025 through the current analysis window. Even with that pullback, annual obligated value remained above 1.39 billion in every year shown, and award counts stayed high at roughly 900 to 1,100 per year, indicating continued contract flow.
