Who won April's biggest contracts?

Contract award activity remained steady in the fourth month of 2016, with Washington Technology reporting on 47 awards.

April’s 47 awards might be down from last month’s 57 awards, but the number beats out the number of April 2015 contract awards when we reported on 41.

You can track the month to month contract awards we've published in the chart below.

To make the list in April, you had to have a contract with a value greater than $128.8 million. April’s contract roundup threshold is lower than March’s $179.9 million threshold, which was the largest of 2016 so far. February’s threshold was $46.7 million and January’s was $99 million.

March was a great month for Engility, who nabbed two of the top 10 spots, as well as Raytheon, who also captured two, but one was a spot on a multiple award contract.
