- Award date on notice: Sep 11
- SAM publish: Sep 24
- Seat path: USMC ACV C-sUAS need, then Enterprise IDIQ W9128Z26DA001, then DO M67854-26-F-0225
- Redacted J&A attached to the award notice
The timing gap is the story. On Sep 24, live USAspending still showed $166.7M across five Enterprise delivery orders, a 0.83% fill, and a USAspending search for this PIID returned zero results. Before the award notice, AwardTape had seen only the intent notice M67854-26-I-0225.
The read: SAM award notices can surface named-prime fills before the spending API reflects them. A tracker that watches only USAspending would have logged this counter-drone seat late. Watching both sources catches the order on the day it posts and puts the dollar figure on the page ahead of the fill math.
