Educational Testing Service federal award total

Educational Testing Service is a tracked USAspending.gov prime recipient; this page reports its lifetime obligations across every award action filed under one recipient ID.

PlainFedContract reports USAspending.gov /recipient/ lifetime ledgers for Educational Testing Service: cumulative prime obligations on this recipient ID, not a single fiscal year. Lifetime totals can exceed one year's national pool; do not read the scale bar as an annual share. Open linked agency or state breakdowns when present; see /methodology/#populations/.

How to read this obligation total (lifetime ledger, not annual spend)

This figure is a rolling aggregate of every prime-award action ever reported for this recipient ID, new awards, modifications, option exercises, and de-obligations all flow into the same total, so the dollar amount shown above is a lifetime ledger rather than an annual budget. Interpreting it as a single-year spend would overstate current activity; interpreting it as a guaranteed revenue stream would overstate commitment, because modifications can cut scope or scope can simply lapse unexercised. The parent classification also matters for how this record should be read: prime recipients hold the contract directly with a federal agency and are fully responsible for performance; parent-level rollups aggregate awards across subsidiaries, which can inflate totals for large conglomerates whose operating units compete separately. The UEI in the header is the post-2022 federal identifier that replaced the DUNS number, it persists across name changes, acquisitions, and reorganizations, making it the most reliable anchor for tracking this entity over time. For researchers, journalists, and procurement staff, the practical layer under this total is verification: USAspending.gov exposes every underlying transaction by award ID, so any totals on this page can be reconstructed action-by-action through the agency's advanced search. Contract amounts displayed here reflect obligations, money the government has committed, not outlays, which is cash actually disbursed, and the gap between obligation and outlay can span multiple fiscal years on multi-year contracts, so a large obligation total does not imply equivalent cash flow in any single period.

Educational Testing Service's federal contractor value score

One verdict number from this portal's own compiled award data, benchmarked against the tracked contractor corpus: scale, recent momentum, and revenue consistency.

F 36/100
  • Contract scale F $46,171,493 Total tracked federal contract value
  • Recent momentum N/A N/A Most recent tracked year vs. the prior year
  • Revenue consistency N/A N/A Year-over-year variation across every tracked year

Higher scale, stronger recent momentum, and steadier year-over-year revenue all score higher. A dimension with too little tracked history for this recipient drops out and its weight redistributes across the rest -- it never silently lowers the score. Full method: federal contractor value score.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where does Educational Testing Service rank among tracked federal contractors?

Tracked recipients are ordered by USAspending.gov lifetime obligation totals, the same sort as the top-contractors rankings; Educational Testing Service's position is the Corpus rank in the header at the top of this page.

How much has Educational Testing Service received in federal contracts?

The lifetime total is the Lifetime awards figure in the header at the top of this page. It sums every prime-award action reported under this recipient ID on USAspending.gov, modifications included, so it is a running ledger rather than one year's spending.

What is the UEI for Educational Testing Service?

The Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) is shown in the header stat rail above; it is recorded at the parent recipient level.

Where does Educational Testing Service's contract data come from?

All contract data for Educational Testing Service is sourced from USAspending.gov prime-award records. No agency- or state-level breakdown is on file for this contractor.

How this record relates to the rest of the data

USAspending publishes 2 separate recipient records under the name Educational Testing Service. This page covers one of them – the parent-level record registered as UEI SZN1MPHQN853, 2nd largest of the group by lifetime obligations. The same registration also appears at the other recipient level.

Each record carries its own lifetime total as published by the source. Those totals overlap across recipient levels without a stated rule, so they are separate attributions and must not be added together to reach a company-wide figure.

By lifetime obligations this record sits just below Pacific Unlimited Inc ($46.2M) and just above Cherokee Nation System Solutions LLC ($46.1M), the nearest recipients by size that do not share its name.
