A government contractor just got $350 million. Nobody knows what for.

The US government awarded a $350 million contract to Science Applications International Corporation. The document does not say what the contract is for.

Government contracts often show where public money is flowing and what priorities are emerging. When the purpose of a $350 million award is not disclosed, it becomes harder to track these shifts. This makes it difficult to understand what new capabilities the government is buying or what existing services it is expanding.
