Delaware USAspending obligations in FY2024

USAspending.gov records $22,116,619,727.86 in Delaware obligations for fiscal year 2024. That figure is a yearlyTrend amount for place-of-performance DE, not an outlay and not a ranking of Delaware counties or chemical plants. FY2024 obligations of $22,116,619,727.86 are about 53.4% of Delaware's $41,442,083,531.46 all-year obligation total in this extract. The state table lists 28,563 awards across the extract; that count is not limited to FY2024 on this packet.

Key figures

  • Delaware FY2024: $22,116,619,727.86 in USAspending obligations.
  • FY2024 obligations of $22,116,619,727.86 are about 53.4% of Delaware's $41,442,083,531.46 all-year obligation total in this extract.
  • The state table lists 28,563 awards across the extract, not a FY2024-only vendor census.

  • Figures are obligations, not outlays.

Delaware overlapping FY2024 on one table

This page is a join: Delaware (DE) and FY2024. $22,116,619,727.86 is the obligation sum on that pair. It is not the government-wide FY2024 total on FY2024 federal spending, not every state's book on All states, and not cash already paid. FY2024 is a closed fiscal year in the yearlyTrend series used here; later ingests can still restate $22,116,619,727.86. Correlation is not causation: a large FY2024 cell does not prove Delaware caused a policy outcome, or the reverse.

FY2024 yearlyTrend is that fiscal year's obligation sum for Delaware. A different year for the same geography is a separate overlay. Delaware federal spending is the state parent without a year filter. FY2024 federal spending is the fiscal-year parent without this state filter. All spending ties lists other pairs. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; donations do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Delaware geography, not a county ledger

Delaware is the place-of-performance tag. Awards billed to Wilmington, Dover, and Newark can share the statewide code. Awards coded to Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maryland stay outside $22,116,619,727.86 even if mail is handled in Wilmington. Coastal-plain, river-port, and capital-city folklore is a reader path, not a dollar field.

Delaware federal spending collects every fiscal year tagged to Delaware. Only this intersection is supposed to match $22,116,619,727.86. The join does not name contractors, agencies, or programs. A ranking of delaware counties or chemical plants would be a different table.

Delaware's FY2025 and FY2026 overlays are separate joins. Do not add those year dollars into $22,116,619,727.86. Wilmington folklore is ordinary speech. Awards coded to Pennsylvania or Maryland stay outside the DE tag even if a vendor sits near the state line. Unique recipients stay unpublished. Quote Delaware federal spending, FY2024 federal spending, All states, and All spending ties as separate pages rather than summing them.

FY2024 as Delaware's yearlyTrend year key

Fiscal year 2024 is the yearlyTrend year key. It is not a calendar year and not a count of events in Delaware. Awards that carry a different year sit outside this cell even if the geography is still DE. FY2024 obligations of $22,116,619,727.86 are about 53.4% of Delaware's $41,442,083,531.46 all-year obligation total in this extract. Do not treat the all-year $41,442,083,531.46 as if it were the FY2024 headline.

FY2024 federal spending shows how Delaware sits beside other geographies in the same fiscal year. This packet has no outlay total, no recipient roster, and no CFDA split. All states is the directory of states.

The all-year Delaware award count is not a FY2024 census

The extract lists 28,563 awards on the Delaware table. That is a state-level award-record count, not a FY2024-only census published on this packet. Dividing $22,116,619,727.86 by 28,563 would mix a year cell with an all-year row count, so this page does not treat that quotient as a typical FY2024 invoice. Unique vendors are unpublished.

Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason 28,563 is not a contractor census. If a later ingest restates the all-year count, trust the live Delaware federal spending table. This page quotes the packet facts only.

What the Delaware–FY2024 pair does not prove

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $22,116,619,727.86 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared in FY2024 over-reads the field. The join cannot say that FY2024 specialized in Delaware's economy because of federal demand. Keep $22,116,619,727.86 labeled as Delaware obligations in FY2024. It is not a ranking of Delaware counties or chemical plants.

FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. Do not rank Delaware as a winner or loser against unlabeled neighbor cells. Cite Delaware together with FY2024 whenever you reuse $22,116,619,727.86.

Using the Delaware FY2024 hubs

Open Delaware federal spending for the state rollup, FY2024 federal spending for the fiscal-year rollup, All states for other states, and All spending ties for other pairs. None of those links convert this cell into a contractor roster, a port census, or a county map, into outlays this packet omits, or into a contractor list. Cite both sides: Delaware and FY2024, $22,116,619,727.86, USAspending.gov, obligations only.

This page exists because two tables meet: a place-of-performance state and a fiscal year. It does not exist to argue that Delaware won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. Delaware's FY2025 and FY2026 overlays are separate joins. Do not add those year dollars into $22,116,619,727.86. Wilmington folklore is ordinary speech. Awards coded to Pennsylvania or Maryland stay outside the DE tag even if a vendor sits near the state line. Unique recipients stay unpublished.
