Who’s Capturing the Largest Share of Army Dollars? Underlying Subsidiaries Bring in Big Dollars.

Friday, January 29th, 2010

We all know the names of the largest prime contractors doing business with the federal government, but seldom do we get to analyze the market share of separate reporting units of those large organizations. To get such an idea, we separated out large prime contractors such as Lockheed, SAIC, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon (to name a few) by their individual reporting units.

The Fedmine report we prepared (Top 100 Individual Prime Contracting Entities by Market Share at the Dept of Army) compares single whole corporations or the individual subsidiaries / reporting units of large parent organizations (as indicated by distinct DUNS numbers; aggregate parent entities were not included). The report covers a 7 year period at the Department of the Army, including the current fiscal year as of January 26, 2010.

Required Registration Site for Contractors Receiving Stimulus Funds Now On-Line

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

Effective on August 17th, contractors receiving Recovery Act (ARRA) funded awards are able to register their organizations on the FederalReporting.gov website.   In order to register, a contractor must have their DUNS number available and be registered in CCR (Central Contractor Registration).  Acceptance of ARRA-funded projects comes with a complex reporting requirement. Contractors must register or enroll in this site as a precursor to filing the required reports.  The first set of reports will be due by October 10th.  A large volume of reports is anticipated so contractors are strongly encouraged to register in advance and report as early as possible.  Click the link for answers to FederalReporting.gov Frequently Asked Questions.  The Government has established a toll free line, 877-508-7386, to answer any questions contractors may have about the registration or reporting process.  Let us know how the Recovery Act is affecting you; post your comment or question on Aronson FedPoint today!
