At the state level, Department of Veterans Affairs leads Texas's Security Systems procurement at 31% of awards, followed by Department of the Air Force (28%). The distributed buying pattern means contractors can build a pipeline across Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of the Air Force, and Department of the Army without single-agency dependency. These statewide patterns are a strong indicator of the buying agencies active in the San Antonio area. Statewide in Texas, the incumbent landscape is entrenched: the top 3 vendors hold 77% of recent awards.
