When it lands
Expiring value by month across the next year, for partial small business work.
Sep 2027 is the heaviest month — 8 contracts worth $159M, roughly 7.6× 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.
What to do with a date
A federal contract is re-bought on a schedule that runs backwards from the day the current one ends — and most of what decides the winner happens before the solicitation is ever published.
By the time a rebid appears on SAM.gov the requirement is written, the set-aside decision is made, and the incumbent has had a year of conversations with the customer. Knowing an end date early is how you get into that year instead of arriving after it.

Research
The agency is beginning to plan the follow-on. You want to know more about this requirement than the notice will ever tell you.
12mo → 9mo out
Shape
The requirement is being written now. This is when a specification quietly comes to describe one company's way of working.
9mo → 6mo out
Sources sought
The highest-leverage window on the whole clock, and the one most small businesses sleep through.
3mo → 1mo out
Solicitation
The RFP typically posts in this window, and everything about it is fast.

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.
