The federal market surged this week with 1,953 new opportunities across 13,040 open slots. Manufacturing has become the dominant sector by a wide margin, accounting for 59 percent of all new postings. Defense Department is the clear engine, posting 1,313 opportunities, while small business contracting remains robust with nearly 690 set-aside postings competing for much lower absolute dollar values than prime contracts suggest.
