What do I put on my resume when the contract owner of my job changes? (lemmy.world)

I work as a contractor, been working here for 9 years, had the same contract company all that time... Except until recently when the contract came up for bid and the old company was outbid by another. Lucky for me, they're keeping all the same people, positions, and whatnot. I like my job, I look forward to the change, I just want to keep things updated.

So, with the change, though, they're making go through the whole hiring process anew, which blows. I'm wondering how I should update my resume, when, basically, my position and responsibilities stay the same, but the company/contract has changed?

I wasn't working under a contract, but I worked for a company that got bought out by another. On my resume, I didn't want it to look like I changed jobs, so I put them as one job, with the name of the company being, "Company A (merged from Company B)"

Maybe you could do something like that.

I did the same a few years back: X Company (formerly Y Company)
