The Department of Defense's NAICS 517919 (All Other Telecommunications) 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 | 16 | $1.6M | — |
| Q2 FY2026 | 75 | $95.7M | +5973% |
| Q3 FY2026 | 11 | $239K | -100% |
| Q4 FY2026 · partial | 10 | $12.4M | +5102% |
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 | LOCKHEED MARTIN CORP | $83.7M | 76.1% |
| 2 | THE BOEING COMPANY | $24.1M | 21.9% |
| 3 | GATR TECHNOLOGIES, INC. | $1.3M | 1.2% |
| 4 | AT&T CORP. | $623K | 0.6% |
| 5 | BOWHEAD BASE OPERATIONS LLC | $141K | 0.1% |
Registrations are rolled up to their corporate parent (USAspending parent UEI), so a company with several SAM registrations ranks once.
