The Department of Defense's NAICS 237990 (Other Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction) market: incumbents, spending trend, set-asides and open solicitations — from FY2026 USAspending awards and live SAM.gov notices.
Contract data as of Oct 18, 2026 (USAspending) · recent coverage verified weekly
| Quarter | Awards | Obligated | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 FY2026 | 156 | $1.5B | — |
| Q2 FY2026 | 111 | $1.2B | -23% |
| Q3 FY2026 | 59 | $494.6M | -57% |
| Q4 FY2026 · partial | 22 | $132.9M | -73% |
Federal fiscal quarters (Q1 = Oct–Dec). Awards are counted in the quarter they start; obligations are the award's obligated amount. The Department of Defense publishes contract awards to USAspending with a 90-day delay, so Q4 FY2026 is still missing most DoD awards — treat that quarter as incomplete, not as a spending decline.
| # | Contractor | Obligated | Share |

Share of obligations on awards whose set-aside type is recorded — 89% of this market's dollars. Most USAspending bulk-archive records leave the field blank, so blank awards are excluded rather than counted as full & open.
