Most federal "opportunities" are recompetes of work someone already holds. The radar starts from the award data instead of the announcement: every active contract in eight services NAICS whose period of performance ends within 18 months, with the incumbent, the buying agency, obligated dollars and the end date — so you can see the recompete coming before it hits SAM.gov. A cross-link against fresh SAM.gov Sources Sought / Presolicitation notices yields 520 high-confidence live recompete signals, shown on each NAICS page.
spending_by_award search — for each
NAICS we scan the top awards by obligated dollars (floor $250K, at least
one transaction since FY2024) and keep those whose period of performance ends in
the next 18 months. That is a top-by-value slice, not an exhaustive census —
small awards below the floor and beyond the scan depth are not here. Two known
lags: DoD contract actions publish to USAspending roughly 90 days after
award, so the newest DoD awards and modifications are systematically missing
(end dates of established contracts remain reliable); and obligation figures
reflect the latest reported data period, not today. Set-aside is sparsely
populated at the award level. Verify any award on its linked USAspending page
