Review an NSN's buying history

Application path: Main Menu → NSN Opportunities → an NSN → the NSN in the solicitation results → Award History.

The item-level Award History lists purchases of the selected NSN. Use it to compare quantities, prices, dates and previous suppliers before deciding whether to research an opportunity further.

Example: compare purchases of a cap screw

Open NSN 5305007262550 through NSN Opportunities, select the NSN again in the solicitation results, then choose Award History on the item page.

On October 21, 2026, this screen displayed 80 items. The first row shows 150 units at $0.96 each, totaling $144.00, awarded February 11, 2026 to NOBLE SUPPLY & LOGISTICS, LLC. A separate row on the same date shows 87 units and $83.52. Read each row with its delivery order and line item rather than treating every repeated contract number as the same purchase.

First rows of the NSN's award history

The screenshot shows the first part of the list. Continue down the grid to compare earlier purchases. For example, the July 22, 2025 row shows 3,218 units at $0.96, totaling $3,089.28. Quantities and dates provide context for a price comparison; a historical price is not a current supplier quotation.
