Hey! I searched what’s publicly available and I can see a CENTCOM public release dated Nov. 7, 2026 that announces the stand-up of “Task Force Iron Gate” based in Tampa, Florida (about 20 civilian/military personnel) with a mission focused on disrupting Iranian ground transit routes and related illicit flows. However, I don’t see any clearly attributable public “contract award” record tied specifically to the name “Task Force Iron Gate” in broadly searchable results for USAspending/FPDS/SAM Contract Award Data, which isn’t surprising because many operational stand-ups are handled via internal tasking, existing vehicles, or awards that won’t mention the task force name. If you’re trying to confirm whether there’s an award connected to CENTCOM/Tampa, the most reliable way is to search SAM.gov Contract Award Data (FPDS) / USAspending by awarding agency/component (DoD), place of performance (Tampa/FL), and keywords like CENTCOM/MacDill (often associated with Tampa), and then validate by contracting office/PIID and description. If you have a PIID/contract number, vendor name/UEI, or a specific USAspending award link you’re looking at, I can help interpret what that record says. Please verify via official sources.
