Department of Defense in South Carolina

DoD’s South Carolina-coded award book

Keep two filters in view. Awarding agency is Department of Defense, agency 097. Geography is South Carolina. The surviving file is $15,492,829,931.18 and 118,356 awards. Army, Navy, Air Force, and other Defense awarding offices can share parent code 097. This packet does not split services or contract vs assistance. Other awarding agencies inside South Carolina sit on other pages even when the same metro hosts their work.

Dollars per record come to about $130,900. That mean mixes large assistance or contract vehicles with smaller actions. It is not a typical contract modification and not a typical payroll line. Unique recipients are unpublished. South Carolina’s Defense file is a six-figure action count. A thick contract book can pull the mean down without each row being a small purchase. The packet does not classify those 118,356 actions.

What the DoD–South Carolina pair is not

This join is not a troop count, a readiness score, or a base-employment census. $15,492,829,931.18 measures award obligations with a 097 awarding-agency code and a SC place-of-performance tag. South Carolina’s coastal and Upstate regions share the SC tag. This packet does not split Charleston from Greenville. North Carolina and Georgia awards remain other state cells.

Department of Defense in South Carolina is the overlay. South Carolina federal spending still includes every other awarding agency in the state extract. Department of Defense is the parent agency hub without a South Carolina filter. All spending ties holds the rest of the join list. Correlation is not causation: sharing a state with DoD does not mean the state caused the cell.
