About NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION federal contract activity
NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION (CAGE 9F909, UEI FNBAMFZ3GD53) recorded 865 FPDS obligations totaling 3.87 billion over the last 10 years, for an average award value of 4.47 million. The profile is heavily concentrated in defense acquisition activity, indicating a sustained federal footprint across major systems, engineering, and software-support work.
Agency mix and customer concentration
The DEPT OF THE ARMY is the dominant customer, accounting for 3.03 billion across 212 awards, or the majority of obligated dollars in the period. The MISSILE DEFENSE AGENCY (MDA) is the second-largest buyer by count and dollars, with 830.40 million across 626 awards, while smaller obligations from the Immediate Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Space Development Agency indicate a limited but present portfolio beyond the core Army and missile-defense relationships. The negative total shown for DCMA suggests deobligations or contract adjustments in that account rather than new buying volume.
Industry profile based on NAICS activity
Award value is concentrated in 336414, Guided Missile and Space Vehicle Manufacturing, which alone represents 2.41 billion across 119 awards. The next largest category is 541511, Custom Computer Programming Services, with 824.59 million across 590 awards, followed by 336419 for related missile and space vehicle parts and auxiliary equipment at 578.77 million. Smaller amounts in engineering and R&D NAICS codes suggest support activity around the primary hardware and software portfolio rather than a standalone services-led business mix.
Annual contract trend over the analysis window
Annual obligations remain elevated but uneven, ranging from 294.58 million in 2023 to 789.91 million in 2024, with 2025 already at 453.19 million. Award counts have stayed consistently high, with 80 to 112 awards per year in the recent five-year window, indicating recurring procurement flow rather than a single large spike. The pattern reflects a broad, continuing defense workload with year-to-year variability in obligation timing.

Insight
Over the last 10 years, NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION (CAGE 9F909) received $3.87 billion across 865 awards, with obligations highly concentrated in guided missile and space vehicle manufacturing. NAICS 336414 accounts for $2.41 billion across 119 awards, and NAICS 336419 adds $578.77 million across 83 awards, indicating that more than three-quarters of obligated value is tied to core aerospace/defense production activity. By award count, NAICS 541511 custom computer programming services is the most frequent category at 590 awards and $824.59 million, suggesting a broader but lower-value services footprint alongside the larger manufacturing obligations. Remaining NAICS categories are comparatively minor in both dollar value and volume, with limited activity in engineering, R&D, and other support classifications.
