How we got the incumbent number
Base incumbent-retention rate 62% (band 55%–78%), adjusted to 50% for this award:
- original was full & open competition (-5pp: contested lane)
- 7 offers on original (-7pp: crowded lane)
Base rate source. Incumbent retention on federal recompetes clusters ~55-80% across GAO bid-protest data, Bloomberg Government recompete studies, and Centre Law analyses. We anchor at 62% and adjust for observable competition/set-aside signals on each specific award.
Lane sample: 120 recent awards across 55 firms in NAICS 541330.
