Bought ACN 2 days before the Energy Department acted on a $351.3M order

Scott Franklin (R-FL) reported 2 purchases of Accenture plc (ACN) on August 26, 2026, according to a transaction report disclosed September 17, 2026. USAspending records an action by the Department of Energy on August 28, 2026, 2 days after the nearest trade, on a BPA call (89303022FIM000088) with Accenture Federal Services LLC, a unit of Accenture PLC, whose total value is $351.3M. Franklin sits on the Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies subcommittee of the House Committee on Appropriations, which drafts the annual spending bill for the Department of Energy. 3 other contracts with the company have an action inside the same 90-day window. August 28, 2026 was the latest action USAspending listed for that contract when it was pulled on October 18, 2026; the contract itself may be years older, and $351.3M is its total value, not the amount of that action. The records do not show who placed the trade or that anyone involved knew of the contract.
