About NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION federal contract activity
NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION (CAGE 8MQW5, UEI D8QQPFNYJD63) recorded 59 FPDS awards totaling 11.18 billion over the last 5 years, with an average award value of 189.43 million. The obligation profile is heavily concentrated in a small number of large defense contracts rather than a broad base of small actions.
Agency mix and customer concentration
The Department of the Air Force is the dominant buyer, accounting for 11.17 billion across 55 awards, or essentially the full measured obligation base. The Department of the Navy contributed a much smaller 2.09 million across 3 awards, while DCMA shows one award with zero obligated dollars, indicating administrative activity rather than funded procurement in the period.
Industry profile based on NAICS activity
The vendor’s obligations are overwhelmingly classified under NAICS 336414, Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing, which represents 11.17 billion across 56 awards. A secondary but minimal share appears under NAICS 541330, Engineering Services, at 2.09 million across 3 awards, confirming a highly specialized aerospace and defense manufacturing profile with limited services exposure.
Annual contract trend over the analysis window
Annual obligations rose from 1.36 billion in 2021 to 1.86 billion in 2022 and 2.93 billion in 2023, then increased further to 2.99 billion in 2024 before moderating to 2.03 billion in 2025. Award counts stayed in a relatively narrow range of 9 to 13 per year, suggesting that year-to-year dollar volatility is driven more by contract size than by deal volume.
