This research service focuses on the US Department of Defense (DoD) information technology (IT) contracting information for research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E); procurement; and services. The contracting data is segmented by military department and overall leading firms. The data and insight provided are calendar year (CY) 2022 DoD contracting information.
The study outlines the top contractors and includes a variety of IT products, such as hardware, software, and services. Contract awards data is an estimate drawn from DoD published information and does not include classified information. Contracts are awarded by a variety of organizations within each of the military departments. Segmentation and contracting estimates are made at the analyst’s discretion.
The purpose of this study is to discuss the leading DoD IT contractors and technology areas of interest. The DoD IT market is mature and stable. This study outlines and provides commentary regarding competitive firms and contracting trends. The main goals include understanding the current state of the DoD IT competitive environment and pointing out both high spending areas and opportunities to participate in the DoD C4ISR market.
