2This record is one of four beginning with SP
This contract number begins with SP. The Defense Logistics Agency handles the procurement and supply of materiel such as fuel, medicines, parts and rations. Of the 222 federal spending records this site holds as of 2026-09-01, only four carry that prefix.
The description reads portals and artificial intelligence, which reads as combining AI with a portal serving as the entrance users pass through. What the portal covers is not written. The award type is a BPA call, an order placed under a blanket purchase agreement set in advance.
3The number is the most stable handle for classification
The record carries separate fields for awarding agency and awarding office. What still makes the contract number useful is that it is unique to the contract and does not change afterwards. Agency names shift with reorganisation; a number already issued does not.
Working with public data over time means meeting variation in names and reorganisation of bodies repeatedly. A numbering scheme stays comparatively independent of that. Choosing an axis of classification built on what does not change makes later re-aggregation easier. The period runs 274 days, from 2025-04-25 to 2026-01-24.
Why it matters
An axis for classifying public data is better built on what does not change. Organisation names and office boundaries shift with reorganisation while an issued contract number does not. Being able to read a numbering scheme allows aggregation unaffected by variation in names.
