Capture brief

NASA reads as a selective buyer (63/100), anchored by 12.8% top vendor share at NASA.

  • Vendor concentration: THE BOEING COMPANY holds 12.8% of tracked NASA obligations. Top-5 vendors account for 47.5%. The vendor base is fragmented enough for a direct prime bid if your NAICS aligns.
  • Work mix: heaviest NAICS codes are 336414, 541715, 541710. 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 ($176.6B in the current FY sample). Stable spend favors incumbents unless a recompete window opens.
  • Protest exposure: 26 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: 50 contracts expiring in the next 18 months ($43.9B), avg vulnerability 60/100. 8 are high urgency. Pre-position before the RFP drops.
  • Capture read: NASA scores 63/100 (selective buyer). Treat as a secondary target unless you have an incumbent relationship or teaming path.
