Among the top takeaways:

• The Health and Human Services, Homeland Security, and Transportation departments are among the agencies with the most estimated dollars yet to be obligated before the end of fiscal 2018.
• Spending on multiple-award contracts accelerates as the fiscal year ends.
• On average, almost a third of the government’s contract obligations are awarded in the fourth quarter.
• Company positioning in the fourth quarter can propel fiscal 2019 performance, especially since fiscal 2019 is likely to start under a continuing resolution.
