Recompete radar: federal space contracts ending soon

For business-development and capture teams: space contracts and contract vehicles whose period of performance ends in the next 6, 12 or 24 months, with the incumbent, the value on record, options when the award record states them, and a link to every record on USAspending.gov. Pick one to see who else has won related work (the teaming finder) and follow it for a daily email when its end date, options or funding change. Free, no account needed to read.

About end dates: Period of performance end date as reported to USAspending; recompete timing is not guaranteed. Contract vehicles (IDVs) report no end date to USAspending, only a last date to order, which is shown instead.

What this covers, and what it cannot see

Two sources, both USAspending.gov. Every federal award since FY2019 to the 148 companies SpaceNexus tracks (for the largest primes, their largest awards), refreshed nightly, last on Nov 13, 2026; and space contract awards to any recipient made in the last 120 days, refreshed daily, last on Nov 12, 2026.
Not yet covered: an older contract held by a company we do not track, made more than 120 days ago, is not on this list. Classified and unpublished work (much of the NRO's buying) never reaches USAspending, and DoD reports awards with a 90-day delay.
Space work is decided by the published rule on the procurement watch (the government's own product and industry codes, space agencies and contracting offices, and space wording). Each row names the rule that accepted it.
Options, offers and the contracting office come from each award's USAspending detail record, which we read on a schedule (followed awards daily, the rest about weekly); last read Nov 12, 2026. Where the record is silent the page says "not reported". We publish no win probabilities or price estimates.
Free vs Research: the radar, the incumbent lookup, the teaming finder and follows are free. The bulk CSV/JSON file is part of the existing SpaceNexus Research plan.

The year ahead, counted: 2027 Space Recompete Outlook, by quarter, agency, incumbent and size, with its method.
