Federal awards data shows four General Services Administration delivery orders carrying a combined obligation that has shifted materially from first observation, with the largest tied to Amentum Services, Inc.[^1]

The Amentum award - 47QFCA23F0046, described as Indo-Pacific command technology experimentation analysis and management services - carried an obligation of $243M as of Nov. 4, 2026, up from $150M at first observation across 14 recorded revisions. That is a move of $93M, by this paper's arithmetic a 62% rise from the opening figure.

IBM holds two of the remaining three awards. Award 47QFEA25F0004, described as "ocio fas it system om halleys followon," stood at $46.5M across 10 revisions, up from $29.2M at first observation.[^2] Award 47QFEA26F0004, described as "contract acquisition lifecycle management bridge calm," stood at $14.7M across 3 revisions, up from $11.8M.[^3] By this paper's arithmetic, the two IBM obligations together total $61.2M as of the Nov. 4 reading.

Scientific Research Corporation holds award 47QFSA20F0047, described as joint threat warning system maintenance support, at $33.7M - down from $34M at first observation across 3 revisions.[^4] It is the only one of the four to have moved downward.

The revision counts vary widely: 14 for the Amentum order, 10 for one IBM order, 3 each for the other two. What that spread suggests is that some of these contracts have been actively renegotiated well beyond a single amendment - though the data as captured says nothing about when those revisions occurred relative to the Nov. 4 snapshot date.
