Questions
- How much has DoD obligated in Georgia?
- USAspending records $38,594,598,819.49 in obligations for agency 097 with Georgia place of performance, on 139,845 awards. That is an obligation join, not an outlay total. The pair is awarding agency 097 (Department of Defense) and place-of-performance Georgia. It is not Department of Defense nationwide and not Georgia from every awarding agency.
- What is the average award?
- About $276,000 ($38,594,598,819.49 ÷ 139,845). A high award count pulls the mean down. The mean is not a typical prime contract. That ratio uses only $38,594,598,819.49 and 139,845 from the packet. A mean hides mix: a few large instruments can sit beside many smaller ones.
- Does this include Florida or Alabama?
- No. Place of performance is Georgia only. Other states are outside $38,594,598,819.49 and outside the 139,845 awards. Only place-of-performance Georgia plus awarding agency 097 (Department of Defense) enter $38,594,598,819.49. Adjacent state codes are other filters, if they exist as ties at all.
- Does the total list military bases?
- No. The facts are agency 097 and state GA. Installation names are not in the aggregate. The $38,594,598,819.49 total follows those two fields. The facts are agency 097 and place-of-performance Georgia totaling $38,594,598,819.49 on 139,845 awards.
