How they award
Share of awards by set-aside type; the rest is full and open.
When they award
Awards by calendar month across the records we hold. Proposals land best in the months before.
Awards: 420 federal contract actions on file naming County of Kern as the awarding agency, aggregated 2026-10-19. Open bids: 0 active solicitations from the 23,000+ sources we monitor. Contacts come from solicitations we have read; signals from expiring contracts, sources sought, presolicitations and published forecasts. Award values as recorded on definitive contract actions; indefinite-delivery vehicles carry ceilings and are left out, so treat values as indicative, never as a spending total. Sections with nothing in them mean no records in our sources, not that nothing exists.
