Capture brief

Department of Agriculture reads as a selective buyer (67/100), anchored by 6.2% top vendor share at USDA.

  • Vendor concentration: ACCENTURE FEDERAL SERVICES LLC holds 6.2% of tracked USDA obligations. Top-5 vendors account for 17.7%. The vendor base is fragmented enough for a direct prime bid if your NAICS aligns.
  • Work mix: heaviest NAICS codes are 541512, 541519, 541511. Align your capability statement and past performance to these codes before cold outreach.
  • Set-aside posture: Full and Open is the largest bucket at 100% of tracked spend (0% small-business overall). Expect full-and-open competition on most large awards.
  • Spend trajectory: stable at +0% YoY ($9.5B in the current FY sample). Stable spend favors incumbents unless a recompete window opens.
  • Protest exposure: 39 GAO decisions, 0% sustained (-8.9 pp vs median). Awards tend to hold up on protest, so price and past performance matter more than legal challenges.
  • Recompete pipeline: 47 contracts expiring in the next 18 months ($2.8B), avg vulnerability 65/100. 24 are high urgency. Pre-position before the RFP drops.
  • Capture read: USDA scores 67/100 (selective buyer). Prioritize this buyer if your NAICS and set-aside certs match their work mix.
