USAspending.gov records $15,840,563,068.69 in Department of Veterans Affairs obligations under awarding agency 036 with place of performance in Wisconsin, across 28,059 awards. Wisconsin also has a high-count Defense join on this site under agency 097. This page is Veterans Affairs plus Wisconsin only. It does not identify a Milwaukee or Madison medical center, and it does not say Madison’s state budget funded these awards. Obligations are not outlays. Average obligation is about $564,545 ($15,840,563,068.69 ÷ 28,059). The VA-in-Wisconsin overlay restates this pair; the Wisconsin statewide hub is the parent geography, including Defense under a different agency code.

Key figures

  • VA agency 036 shows $15,840,563,068.69 in Wisconsin place-of-performance obligations on 28,059 awards.
  • Mean obligation is about $564,545 per award.
  • Defense in Wisconsin is a different agency join.
  • Wisconsin is a geography tag, not a roster of VA facilities.
  • Figures are obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

VA in Wisconsin, not the Defense cell

This page is the USAspending cell for awarding agency 036 and Wisconsin (WI) place of performance. The $15,840,563,068.69 total sums matching obligations. Defense in Wisconsin uses agency 097 and a larger award count. Mixing the two without labeling filters would confuse departments. This narrative stays on VA.

Twenty-eight thousand fifty-nine awards is a substantial row count for a VA–state join. The count can include health-care contracts, construction, and other award types. The packet does not classify them. Inferring a single facility from the state tag would add a label the table does not carry.

Wisconsin’s 28,059 VA records and $15,840,563,068.69 produce a mean near $564,545, a bit higher than some thicker VA books because the denominator is smaller. Higher mean is not a quality score. Defense’s Wisconsin cell remains a different department. Adding the two without a footnote invents a combined total neither packet contains.

Awarding agency 036

Code 036 is the Department of Veterans Affairs in this extract. VHA, VBA, and NCA awarding offices can roll up under that parent. This packet does not split them. The overlay /states/wi/agencies/036/ is the table view of the same pair.

A national VA page will show a larger dollar total. Using $15,840,563,068.69 as the entire VA obligation book would drop the Wisconsin filter. Using 28,059 as a headcount of Wisconsin veterans would drop the award-record definition.
