Nevada Federal Contractors - FedComp Index (April 2026)

Classified dataset of 779 federal contractors registered in Nevada as of April 2026, covering five years of USASpending base contract award data. Each contractor is assigned a Posture Class (1-4) based on two axes: base contract volume and base contract frequency.

This dataset is updated weekly as new award data becomes available.

FedComp Index classification

Two-axis classification using base contract data only (excludes delivery orders and modifications):

• Volume axis - total base contract dollars over trailing 5-year window. Threshold: $5,000,000.
• Frequency axis - count of distinct base contracts over trailing 5-year window. Threshold: 3 contracts.

Four Posture Classes from the intersection of volume and frequency:

• Class 1 - high volume, high frequency. Systematic winners with distributed revenue.
• Class 2 - high volume, low frequency. Concentrated revenue in few large contracts.
• Class 3 - low volume, high frequency. Many small wins, growth trajectory.
• Class 4 - low volume, low frequency. Entry level or expired pipeline.

Obligation Density (dollars per base contract) measures revenue concentration within each class.
