Competition: How They Won the Contracts






The Pentagon defines several different "solicitation procedures" that roughly indicate the level of competition in awarding contracts. Full and open competition generally indicates that the contracts went out to competitive bid. Not full and open generally don't go out to bid – the pie chart below shows the reasons why. Set-aside contracts are competitive, but only certified small businesses can bid on them. Most of the contracts with no information

were awarded on the "federal schedule." Contractors pre-qualify to supply specific goods and services, and federal employees can order them without going through the bidding process.

Small Business Total $816,091,394 74.53%


This table shows how many contract dollars were classified as going to a small business or small disadvantaged business (minority-owed, etc.). Set-aside contracts are reserved for small businesses; large companies cannot compete for them. Under guidelines set by Congress, federal agencies are supposed to direct 23 percent of their outside contracts to small companies.
