Disclosed contracts in the sector — where the number comes from
- The calculation
- 27,438 contracts
- What goes in
Each contract is counted once, classified in this sector by the code of its contract line (failing that, of its oldest line). Modifications (amendments) do not make one more contract.
8,400 suppliers by name · 86 organisations · sector given by the source's code, under the contracts rule
27,438 disclosed federal contracts in this sector. A contract carries one code, hence one sector: sector totals partition the register — 102,617 contracts without a code or outside the rule stay outside every sector.
Contracts dated from December 13, 2007 to June 30, 2026

how it's calculated — How the price moved
How the price moved — where the number comes from
- What goes in
- By year of signature, not of disclosure: here the axis is the price's, and a signed contract has a date. Central publication was not mandatory before 2017: earlier years are lower, and the series says so instead of drawing a drop.

how it's calculated — Share by invitation
Share by invitation — where the number comes from
- The calculation
- 9,982 contracts by invitation ÷ 27,344 contracts with a classified method = 36.5%
- What goes in
The denominator only counts the sector's contracts whose method is classified: public call for tenders, selective, by invitation, sole-source. Left out: 94 contracts with an unclassified method.
Out of 27,344 contracts with a classified method; 94 unclassified, outside the denominator. Classified from the official contracts schema: “ACAN” counts as direct award, “Traditional” as by invitation. These figures describe buying practices, not irregularities.

How many suppliers share this market
8,400 distinct suppliers, by published name, hold at least one disclosed contract. The five most frequent account for 7.6% — 2,097 contracts.
Counted by number of contracts, never by amount — and without naming anyone: the source publishes acts, not a ranking. And without a business identity: two spellings of the same name are two suppliers here.

Share of the top five suppliers — where the number comes from
- The calculation

- What goes in
- Suppliers are counted by published name, with no merging: two spellings of the same company make two suppliers. Contracts with no supplier name stay in the denominator. Contracts are counted, not amounts, and no supplier is named.
