What Colorado operators should take from this
$228.11M of federal custom computer programming work was recorded to Colorado recipients last fiscal year. That money went to specific, named companies — the ledger on this page lists the largest of them nationally, and none of them holds an exclusive right to the work.
The median value among the 100 largest awards in this trade was $117.26M. That is the size of deal moving through this NAICS code — award values cover the full period of performance, so they are a different measure from one year of obligations.

Methodology
Methodology. Figures on this page are federal prime contract obligations for NAICS 541511 (custom computer programming) in fiscal year 2025 (October 1 2024 – September 30 2025), pulled from the USAspending API and retrieved August 14 2026.

Obligations are amounts the government committed during the fiscal year; they are not the same as a contract ceiling or as cash disbursed.
Excluded: subcontracts, grants, state and local government purchasing, and classified awards not published by the API. Amounts are rounded for display; the underlying values are exact to the cent and shown in full on hover of any amount.
