When it lands
Expiring value by month across the next year, for 8(a) sole source work.
Sep 2026 is the heaviest month — 191 contracts worth $1.5B, roughly 2.8× a median month. That is the federal fiscal year ending on 30 September, which is why so much lands at once — and why the work to be ready for it happens in the spring.

Where this comes from
USAspending publishes every federal award, but it will not tell you what is about to end — its date filters cover when a contract was signed or modified, never when its period of performance runs out. It also will not return the set-aside on a search, only filter by it. So we pull awards one set-aside programme at a time, keep the ones still running, and index them by end date.
An end date is the period of performance recorded at time of award. Contracts get extended, modified and terminated early all the time — treat a date here as a signal to go look, not a guarantee.
