Mission Support

Serco Inc. has agreed to acquire QinetiQ US in a transaction valued at $292 million, with closing expected in Q1 2027 pending regulatory approvals. The deal would add about 800 employees and capabilities tied to defense, space, border surveillance, and Army robotics programs, potentially reshaping competition and teaming relationships as the companies integrate.

CACI recorded $4.8 billion in contract awards for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, producing a 2.0x book-to-bill ratio and lifting funded backlog 14.8% year over year to $6.2 billion. Major awards span USCENTCOM mission support, USASOC special operations, and electronic warfare; these are awarded efforts, not open solicitations, but may create teaming and subcontracting opportunities.

SAIC has secured a pivotal $400 million recompete contract for systems engineering and mission support for ground intelligence programs. This award reflects strong federal investment in enhancing intelligence capabilities and SAIC’s steadfast dominance in the intelligence contracting space, following total contract wins exceeding $1.6 billion in fiscal year 2027.
