Follow Up Questions

Where on War.gov can I find the full contract listings and details?Expand

On the article page itself: the contract listings and links are posted at the Contracts section of War.gov — the URL in the article (https://www.war.gov/News/Contracts/Contract/Article/4394525/contracts-for-jan-30-2026/) and the site’s Contracts landing page (https://www.war.gov/News/Contracts/). If the site is blocked, the Department of War’s daily contract posts follow the same format used by the U.S. Dept. of Defense ‘Contracts’ releases, which are found at https://www.defense.gov/News/Contracts/ (same daily listing of award notices).

What kinds of contracts does the Department of War typically award (services, equipment, construction, etc.)?Expand

The Department typically awards a mix of contract types: services (professional and technical support), equipment and weapons procurement, construction and engineering, research and development, and indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) task orders. Daily contract announcements show examples across these categories (firm‑fixed‑price, cost‑reimbursement, IDIQ, task orders).

Does "valued at $7.5 million or more" refer to each individual contract award or aggregated program totals?Expand

It refers to each individual contract action or award (individual contract or task order) whose value meets or exceeds the $7.5 million reporting threshold, not an aggregated program total. Federal reporting systems publish award-level actions (FPDS/SAM/USAspending) rather than summing unrelated awards into one posted amount.

How often does the Department of War publish these contract announcements?Expand

These high‑value contract announcements are published every business day (daily) in the agency’s Contracts/News section (typically posted in the late afternoon).

Do the public postings include contractor names, award amounts, contract descriptions, and award locations?Expand

Yes. Public daily contract posts typically include contractor name, award amount (obligation or contract value), a short description of the work, contract type, and the primary place of performance or award location; many entries also list the contracting office and expected completion/performance dates.

Are classified or national security–sensitive contracts included in these public lists, or are they excluded?Expand

Classified or national‑security–sensitive contracts, details of classified tasks, and information that could harm operations are excluded or redacted from public lists. Agencies publish unclassified award-level information for transparency but withhold classified/sensitive content under security rules.

How can small businesses learn about or bid on Department of War contracting opportunities?Expand

Small businesses should register in SAM.gov (System for Award Management), create a SAM profile and NAICS/PSC codes, monitor Contract Opportunities on SAM.gov, use the DoD Office of Small Business Programs resources, and subscribe to agency contracting forecasts/daily notices to find and bid on opportunities.
