Federal Marketplace Index — Base Data Deposit (data as of 2026-07-01)

Base source data underlying the Federal Marketplace Index (FMI), preserved as a fixed, independently citable record so the analysis remains reproducible even if the originating government systems later change access terms, alter the data, or withdraw it. Contents: federal contract award data compiled from USAspending (source system: FPDS), FY2022–FY2026 (FY2026 partial), as five per-fiscal-year archives; provenance manifests with retrieval dates and hashes; a current SAM.gov active-entity snapshot (2026-07-01); and SAM.gov's published Public Monthly historical entity extracts, semiannual 2014–2026. Retrieval vintages: USAspending pulled 2026-06-27 and 2026-06-28; SAM as of 2026-07-01. See DEPOSIT_README.md for the full file-by-file inventory. All contents are U.S. Government public records (USAspending/FPDS and SAM.gov) in the public domain. Methodology: https://federalmarketplaceindex.org/methodology.html
