Federal Tech Consulting Services activity in Maryland spreads across 10 cities in Q2 2026, with Bethesda, Gaithersburg, St James leading at a combined 63% of the state's 35 opportunities. The largest single market — Bethesda — holds 31%, indicating moderate rather than extreme concentration.

Together they represent 78% of the state's 793 recorded contract actions and $1.2B in total spending. Winning with either agency provides the past-performance foundation to compete for the other's work.
