Department of Defense obligations in Arizona 6th District (AZ-06)

DoD in AZ-06 is not a score against AZ-05

Arizona 6th District (AZ-06) is the sister geography to AZ-05 on the Defense shelf. Sister cells are not a race. Each district tag is its own join. Agency 097 here is a large majority of the AZ-06 book, not the statewide Arizona Defense total. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $4,892,578,695.02 on 3,018 awards for awarding agency 097 with Arizona 6th District (AZ-06) as place of performance. Treat the pair as a table intersection, not a ranking of districts as winners or losers, and not a claim that 3,018 awards equal 3,018 Defense contractors. A Department of Defense amount tagged to a different district is out of this cell.

VA, DHS, or Energy awards that mention defense in a description sit outside $4,892,578,695.02 unless those awards also carry agency 097 and AZ-06 geography. Mixing those lines would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and base employment or procurement headcount is not causation. Those series are not in the packet. Place of performance as AZ-06 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $4,892,578,695.02 in a district treasury. Do not add AZ-05 and AZ-06 Defense cells and call the sum Arizona. That statewide rollup is not this packet.

3,018 Defense awards on Arizona 6th District geography

Three thousand eighteen DoD awards is a much thicker file than AZ-05's 150 rows. Different grain on a similar dollar size means different vehicle sizes, not a verdict about cities that are not in the packet. Mean obligation is about $1,621,132.77 if $4,892,578,695.02 were divided evenly across 3,018 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published typical award. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards, including possible modifications. The extract does not split Army, Navy, Air Force, or other components inside agency 097. Unique recipients are unpublished.

This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Arizona 6th District for the stored district table and Department of Defense for the national agency shelf. Do not convert 3,018 into a map of installations, contractors, or service members inside Arizona 6th District. The $4,892,578,695.02 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on USAspending.gov rather than inferring an inventory.

AZ-06 DoD dollars are obligations, not paid invoices

DoD obligations are commitments, not invoices already paid. DoD awards often obligate as contracts or assistance are recorded and draw as deliveries are billed. The $4,892,578,695.02 headline is the obligation sum on this district-agency join, not hardware already delivered or payroll already issued. Citing the figure as cash already sent confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. No fiscal year is attached to this packet; do not annualize $4,892,578,695.02 into a yearly run rate.

Keep the obligation word on $4,892,578,695.02. Keep both Department of Defense and Arizona 6th District (AZ-06) in the citation. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell. Different datasets can share a state abbreviation without sharing a money trail.

Omitted facts on the AZ-06 Defense join

The extract has no roster of installations, contractors, or service members. Facts remain $4,892,578,695.02, 3,018 awards, agency 097 (Department of Defense), Arizona 6th District (AZ-06), and a district-wide book of $6,056,084,204.03. This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling district-agency joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score.

Arizona 6th District places AZ-06 among other congressional districts. Department of Defense places agency 097 among other awarding agencies. Arizona federal spending is the statewide shelf. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Arizona spending or of Department of Defense's national book the packet never computed. The $4,892,578,695.02 figure is the tagged pair only. Do not add AZ-05 and AZ-06 Defense cells and call the sum Arizona. That statewide rollup is not this packet.

Citing Department of Defense in AZ-06

A clean footnote names Department of Defense (agency 097), Arizona 6th District (AZ-06), $4,892,578,695.02 in obligations, and 3,018 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not relabel 3,018 as a census of installations, contractors, or service members. Quote the district overlay if you need every awarding agency in AZ-06, and quote the agency page if you need Department of Defense without a district filter. About 80.8% of the $6,056,084,204.03 district book sits on this agency in the extract; that percentage is a derived ratio, not a separate published table.

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 097. The other is congressional district place of performance as AZ-06. The headline $4,892,578,695.02 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that Department of Defense caused Arizona 6th District's economy to grow, or that the district caused the awards to exist. If a later ingest moves the live overlay, prefer the overlay when the table and this snapshot diverge.

Questions

How much did DoD obligate in Arizona 6th District?

USAspending.gov shows $4,892,578,695.02 in obligations for Department of Defense (agency 097) with Arizona 6th District (AZ-06) as place of performance, across 3,018 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the district's entire defense or veterans budget. Other agencies in the district sit outside this join.

Do 3,018 awards mean 3,018 AZ-06 contractors?

No. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards and can include continuations. It is not a census of installations, contractors, or service members. The packet does not name recipients. Mean obligation of about $1,621,132.77 is a quotient, not a typical published award. See Arizona 6th District for stored lines.

Can I add AZ-05 and AZ-06 to get statewide Defense?

No. The join is awarding agency 097 crossed with AZ-06 place of performance. The district-wide book on this extract is $6,056,084,204.03. Related agencies and other districts are not inside $4,892,578,695.02 unless they also carry both keys. Do not add AZ-05 and AZ-06 Defense cells and call the sum Arizona. That statewide rollup is not this packet.

Is the AZ-06 DoD total already paid as contract outlays?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $4,892,578,695.02 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Draws and remaining balances are not published in this packet. Remaining balances are not in the facts.
