Definitive contracts are stand-alone contracts; purchase orders are mostly simplified acquisitions (under $350K since October 2025, $250K before). Orders are task and delivery orders and BPA calls placed under a vehicle. A vehicle's ceiling is what it may be worth with every option, often shared by many companies, not what was spent.
