Basic And Applied Scientific Research overlapping Defense — CFDA 12.300

The pair is Basic And Applied Scientific Research × Department of Defense. $4,497,865,289.55 is the obligation aggregate for rows that carry both CFDA 12.300 and awarding-agency 097. The join obligation $4,497,865,289.55 is below the CFDA program total of $4,499,819,874.68. This page does not invent the other awarding agencies that may sit outside Department of Defense on Basic And Applied Scientific Research. Correlation is not causation: the join does not prove that Department of Defense caused Basic And Applied Scientific Research activity, only that USAspending coded the two keys together. It is not a Navy-lab ranking or a named performer roster.

SpendingVault indexes the cell from USAspending.gov. The catalog title on the program side is BASIC AND APPLIED SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH. The agency name on the awarding side is Department of Defense. Neither label is a contractor, a place of performance, or a fiscal-year stamp — this packet publishes no fiscal year. Cite $4,497,865,289.55 as obligations on the Basic And Applied Scientific Research–Defense pair.

CFDA 12.300 as the basic and applied scientific research side

CFDA 12.300 is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier for Basic And Applied Scientific Research. The program-wide obligation total in this extract is $4,499,819,874.68. That figure is a program rollup, not a second headline for the Department of Defense slice unless the two amounts match. Do not treat $4,499,819,874.68 as cash Treasury already sent. Performers, topics, and service components are unpublished on this packet.

Open CFDA 12.300 at /programs/12.300/ for the program hub. That page is not this join: it can include other awarding agencies if the extract lists them, and it is still obligations rather than outlays. This ties page stays on CFDA 12.300 awarded by agency 097 only.

Agency 097, Department of Defense

Department of Defense is awarding-agency 097 on USAspending assistance rows. The agency hub Department of Defense at /agencies/097/ rolls up every program that agency awards in the index, not only Basic And Applied Scientific Research. Reading $4,497,865,289.55 as Department of Defense’s entire book would over-read this cell. The join is one CFDA inside one agency, not a department budget justification.

Do not add Federal Election Commission contribution totals to $4,497,865,289.55. Campaign-finance receipts and USAspending award obligations are separate public-record systems even when a geography or a calendar year happens to overlap. This packet has no FEC facts.

4,799 awards as a CFDA table, not a performer census

The extract lists 4,799 awards on the Basic And Applied Scientific Research × Department of Defense table. That is an award-record count, not a census of research groups. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. Dividing $4,497,865,289.55 by 4,799 is not published here as a typical award size, because the packet does not say the rows are comparable.

Performer rankings this basic-research–Defense join cannot support

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $4,497,865,289.55 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared on Basic And Applied Scientific Research over-reads the field. The join cannot say that Department of Defense specialized in Basic And Applied Scientific Research because of a policy success metric this packet omits. Keep $4,497,865,289.55 labeled as Basic And Applied Scientific Research obligations awarded by Department of Defense.
