U.S. federal contract awards, explained
UpComing.PRO watches public U.S. government contract awards, matches each to the listed company that received it, or to its listed parent, where it can, and shows how large the award is for that company. Every score shows what it was built from and what it could not use. We show "unknown" instead of guessing.

What this site does not claim
- Timing. A "first public" time is recorded for an event only where a source gives one, and it is an indication, not proof. Where a source publishes a time with no time zone (federal procurement feed), we read it as Eastern by inference only; the data file marks it inferred and low confidence (the cards on this page do not display it). Where a source gives no usable time, none is recorded and we do not claim when the award became public.
- Event type. For USAspending records the action type is derived by a stated rule from the newest action on the award: modification number zero on a definitive contract or purchase order is a new contract; on a delivery order or BPA call, a new task order; a funding-only action is incremental funding; an option exercise, an extension and other modifications are classed accordingly. Anything not fitting stays "unknown".
- Private recipients. Most contract recipients are private companies with no listed parent. Only events resolved to a public company are listed here; awards we cannot match to a listed company are not listed and have no materiality score.
- Prices. By rule, no price or price-derived figure is shown on this site, and company size in the scores shown here is measured by revenue only.
- Validation. No historical validation exists yet. These scores describe the event; they do not predict a price move and are not a recommendation to buy or sell anything.
