Expiring contracts by agency: questions vendors ask
Which federal agencies have the most contracts expiring?
By number of prime contracts whose period of performance ends in the next 12 months: Department of Defense (101,312), General Services Administration (31,674), Department of Veterans Affairs (25,539). 65 agencies have at least 5 contracts ending in that window, and each has its own page. Counted from USAspending and rebuilt nightly.
Is this the same as an agency’s forecast of contracting opportunities?
No. An agency’s forecast lists the purchases it plans; these pages list contracts already awarded whose period of performance is ending, the work a recompete would replace. The VA and DHS pages each link to the agency’s own forecast.
