Distinct winners
The federal mining and extraction market appears substantial at $336 million in total awards, but this figure obscures a critical structural reality: the Department of Defense accounts for $329 million of that total, leaving just $7 million split among Interior, Agriculture, and Veterans Affairs. For small and mid-size contractors, this means the sector is effectively a single-agency market with a handful of dominant winners and thin opportunities outside the West Coast.
