Department of Defense federal obligations in Kansas

What the DoD–Kansas join is

Awarding agency 097 and place-of-performance state KS meet here. $8,046,346,803.94 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Defense’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Kansas, and not an outlay register. Services and defense agencies can roll up under 097. Thickness is not a ranking of Kansas against Nevada or New Mexico Defense cells in this slice.

28,858 is a high row count for this dollar scale, so the mean is smaller than thin Energy-style books. Modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. Dividing $8,046,346,803.94 by 28,858 yields about $278,826 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line.

Open Department of Defense in Kansas for the live filtered table, Kansas federal spending for every awarding agency in the state extract, Department of Defense for agency 097 without a Kansas filter, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $8,046,346,803.94.

Awarding agency 097 as the DoD side

USAspending labels awarding agency 097 as Department of Defense. That code produced $8,046,346,803.94 when crossed with Kansas place of performance. The agency-wide 097 hub does not require KS geography. The Kansas hub does not require DoD. Only the overlay applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 28,858 awards.

A troop census, a readiness score, and a commercial-aircraft order book are unpublished. 28,858 awards is a thick 097 file for this dollar scale, so the mean is pulled down by volume. A second DoD slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Kansas’s 097 cell as a synonym for every DoD account.

Kansas as place of performance (KS)

Kansas on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to Kansas residents. Awards can list KS while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, or Colorado remain on those ties even when the contractor is in Wichita. Riley County and the rest of Kansas share one KS stamp.

Kansas federal spending shows how agency 097 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same geography. $8,046,346,803.94 is one column in that table, not the table. This packet does not split Kansas by county, metro, or congressional district.

Obligations, not outlays

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $8,046,346,803.94 is that kind of sum for Department of Defense inside Kansas coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same awarding-agency rollup; this packet does not split them.

Kansas’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 28,858-row DoD cell leaves USAspending.gov. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $8,046,346,803.94 as given. Treat 28,858 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors.

Questions

How much DoD spending is coded to Kansas?

USAspending.gov lists $8,046,346,803.94 in Department of Defense obligations across 28,858 Kansas-coded awards. Agency 097 × KS is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Kansas’s complete federal ledger. Department of Defense in Kansas is the live overlay for this pair. Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $278,826, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does this total include every DoD program in Kansas?

The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup, not a program pie. $8,046,346,803.94 is the combined obligation sum for agency 097 inside Kansas coding. Open Department of Defense in Kansas to inspect award lines. 28,858 is an action count, not a program count. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not invent a CFDA split from the department label.

Is $8,046,346,803.94 cash already paid in Kansas?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $8,046,346,803.94 as checks already cleared in Kansas confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 28,858 awards. Prefer the overlay if the table moved.
