Small Business Administration federal obligations (CGAC 073)

Many awards under a $4.56 billion 073 book

The precise total is $4,561,825,547.55. Across 354,363 awards the implied mean is about $12,900 per award, consistent with a high-volume, small-dollar file. This packet does not split the 354,363 rows by program. The mean is blended, not a typical 7(a) loan on the other SBA-labeled identifier.

Fiscal year 2026 is the latest year. New actions posted after this extract will move both the dollar total and the award count. USAspending.gov is the source.

That mix is the research takeaway from the two packet facts together. 354,363 awards at a mean near $12,900 on CGAC 073, still high volume on a much smaller book than CGAC 047. A later extract can change both the dollar total and the award count as small-dollar actions continue to post inside FY 2026.

Keep 073 separate from CGAC 047

SpendingVault’s hub for this rollup is /agencies/073/. The $4,561,825,547.55 total and 354,363 award count belong to CGAC 073. The larger SBA-labeled book under code 047 is a different awarding-agency identifier. Adding the two on this page would mix codes.

The 354,363 figure counts award records, not unique businesses.

What the 073 obligation file is not

Guarantee face values, recoveries, and subsidy estimates live in other SBA scorekeeping. This hub cites $4,561,825,547.55 in USAspending obligations through FY 2026 on 354,363 awards tagged 073. Amounts that never appear as award rows in this extract are omitted. Outlays are not in the packet.

Researchers sometimes treat an agency obligation total as cash already paid. For Small Business Administration, that reading is wrong. A merge with CGAC 047, unique-firm counts, or guarantee face values belong in other publications. The USAspending figure on this hub remains an obligation sum through FY 2026. Small-dollar actions continue to post inside FY 2026.

State geography for CGAC 073

A high row count can spread modest cells across many states. A servicing or headquarters contract can still concentrate a slice of $4,561,825,547.55 in one jurisdiction. The state table is a coding view of the 354,363 awards through FY 2026.

Place-of-performance is a coding field, not a complete economic-impact model. On this agency, a high row count spreads modest cells; a servicing contract can still concentrate a slice in one jurisdiction. Read the state table after the agency hub, not instead of it. Keep this hub on /agencies/073/; the larger SBA-labeled book is a different code.

073 on the all-agencies list

Pair $4,561,825,547.55 with the 354,363 award count. This is the smaller-dollar, still high-volume SBA-labeled identifier. The hub does not advise applicants.

The all-agencies list is useful only inside this extract’s obligation definition and FY 2026 cap. 354,363 awards at a mean near $12,900 on CGAC 073, still high volume on a much smaller book than CGAC 047. Ranking on dollars alone hides that mix. Keep this hub on /agencies/073/; the larger SBA-labeled book is a different code.

CGAC 073 as the smaller-dollar SBA-labeled identifier

The facts are $4,561,825,547.55, 354,363 awards, code 073, and FY 2026. Both labels in the extract read Small Business Administration. The awarding-agency codes differ. Adding 047 here would mix identifiers. A later USAspending extract can revise both the dollar total and the 354,363 count as new actions and modifications post against CGAC 073. Until that refresh, the documented book is 4561825547.55 in obligations. That figure is not a performance score, not an enacted one-year appropriation, and not a recommendation to apply for funds. It is the award-file rollup this packet carries through FY 2026.

A mean near $12,900 describes many small actions. It is not a typical 7(a) size on the other SBA-labeled hub. The 354,363 count is not a unique-firm census. Use the state table as award coding through FY 2026. CGAC 073 is the awarding-agency identifier on every row in this rollup, and the overlay path stays /agencies/073/. The award population is 354,363 records. Those rows still sum to the same obligation total through fiscal year 2026. Readers who need place-of-performance should open the state table from that hub; readers who need peer context should open the all-agencies list. Neither view converts obligations into outlays.
