The Department of Defense's NAICS 325411 (Medicinal and Botanical Manufacturing) 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 | 28,851 | $1.3B | — |
| Q2 FY2026 | 26,325 | $1.0B | -21% |
| Q3 FY2026 | 11,739 | $437.5M | -57% |
| Q4 FY2026 · partial | 3,860 | $136.3M | -69% |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CENCORA, INC. | $2.9B | 98.6% |
| 2 | EMERGENT BIOSOLUTIONS INC | $21.5M | 0.7% |
| 3 | DMS PHARMACEUTICAL GROUP INC | $8.3M | 0.3% |
| 4 | CARDINAL HEALTH, INC. | $3.7M | 0.1% |
| 5 | ATLANTIC DIVING SUPPLY, INC. | $2.0M | 0.1% |
Registrations are rolled up to their corporate parent (USAspending parent UEI), so a company with several SAM registrations ranks once.
