We do know about the ALEC Stand Your Gun laws pushed by Koch, etc. But that's not direct enough, even though we have a thread with their website now posting the content of ALEC written bills. So many pieces of legislation don't mention who the contracts will go to in deals, like charter schools. I have no idea who can help with this. Although grantcart is probably be the best in researching as he did just before the election on that polling firm.
