USAspending.gov records $26,676,471,252.66 in Department of Defense obligations under awarding agency 097 with place of performance in Ohio, across 118,857 awards. Dollars sit near other large Defense–state cells, while the award count — 118,857 — sits between sparse assistance tables and Illinois-style books with hundreds of thousands of rows. The join names both sides: Defense as awarding agency and Ohio as geography. It does not say Ohio paid for the Pentagon or that every airframe mentioned in news coverage is in this total. Obligations are not outlays. Average obligation is about $224,441 ($26,676,471,252.66 ÷ 118,857).

Key figures

  • DoD agency 097 shows $26,676,471,252.66 in Ohio place-of-performance obligations on 118,857 awards.
  • Mean obligation is about $224,441 per award.
  • Ohio is a geography tag, not a roster of bases or vendors.
  • The join is not the national Defense budget and not all Ohio federal spending.
  • Figures are obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

The 097 and Ohio intersection

This tie is the USAspending cell for awarding agency 097 and place-of-performance state OH. The $26,676,471,252.66 sum is the obligation aggregate on awards that match both keys. Ohio’s all-agency hub is broader; the national Defense hub is broader in the other direction. Quoting this page as either parent would misstate the filter.

One hundred eighteen thousand eight hundred fifty-seven awards is a mid-to-high volume for a state–Defense pair. That count can include contracts, orders, and modifications. The facts do not name Wright-Patterson, a tank plant, or any vendor. Inferring a single installation from the state tag would be a leap the table does not support.

Department of Defense as awarding agency 097

Code 097 is the Defense parent in this extract. Component agencies can sit underneath it in the source. This packet supplies one dollar total and one award count for the parent-plus-Ohio slice. The overlay /states/oh/agencies/097/ holds the same pair without adding years or object classes that are absent from the facts.

A reader who wants Defense awards in every state should leave this tie and open the agency 097 page. $26,676,471,252.66 is Ohio’s tagged share in the aggregate, not the department’s worldwide obligation book.
