Who won March's biggest contracts?

Contract activity picked up some momentum in the third month of 2015.

Washington Technology covered 58 awards during March, compared to 33 in February.

Despite a slight drop in the number of contracts covered, March 2015’s contract numbers were on par with March 2014’s, with 58 in March 2015 versus 66 in March 2014.

However, this continues a trend that began in January of 2015’s numbers not quite matching up to their 2014 counterparts. January 2014 saw 53 awards, but January 2015 saw 38. February 2014 saw 43 awards, but February 2015’s number dropped by ten.

Some huge contracts were awarded this month, though. To make the top 10 list in March, you had to have won a contract worth more than $249 million.  That number was $78.5 million in February. In January, it was $67.7 million.

The month was a good month for Raytheon, who holds two spots on our Top 10, both of which are high on the list.
