Department of Veterans Affairs federal obligations in Arizona

VA’s Arizona-coded award book

Keep two filters in view. Awarding agency is Department of Veterans Affairs, agency 036. Geography is Arizona. The surviving file is $14,814,134,715.93 and 10,318 awards. Medical care, construction, and benefits-related vehicles can share the VA awarding-agency code. This packet does not classify the mix. Other awarding agencies inside Arizona sit on other pages even when the same metro hosts their work.

Dollars per record come to about $1.44 million. That mean mixes large assistance or contract vehicles with smaller actions. It is not a typical clinic visit and not a per-veteran payment. Unique recipients are unpublished. Arizona’s VA cell has about ten thousand award rows beside a mid-teens billion sum, a thicker dollar-per-row geometry than several higher-count VA files. Geometry is not a Phoenix clinic grade.

What the VA–Arizona pair is not

This join is not a veteran census, a wait-time score, or a care-quality grade. $14,814,134,715.93 measures award obligations with a 036 awarding-agency code and a AZ place-of-performance tag. Arizona’s two large metros share the AZ tag with the rest of the state. This packet does not split Phoenix from Tucson. California and New Mexico awards stay outside this cell.

Department of Veterans Affairs in Arizona is the overlay. Arizona federal spending still includes every other awarding agency in the state extract. Department of Veterans Affairs is the parent agency hub without an Arizona filter. All spending ties holds the rest of the join list. Correlation is not causation: sharing a state with VA does not mean the state caused the cell.

Obligation versus outlay on agency 036

Assistance and contract awards can obligate in one fiscal window and pay on a different schedule. $14,814,134,715.93 is the commitment sum. Treating it as cash already cleared in Arizona confuses obligations with outlays. The packet does not assign a fiscal year to the headline; treat $14,814,134,715.93 as the obligation total present in the indexed file.

Arizona’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 10,318-row VA cell leaves USAspending.gov. Net obligations can include de-obligations. The implied mean near $1.44 million is dollars divided by records, not a typical clinic visit and not a per-veteran payment.

One AZ tag, not Phoenix versus Tucson

This packet does not split $14,814,134,715.93 by county, metro, or Maricopa County and Pima County. 10,318 awards stay statewide. Neighboring California, Nevada, Utah, and New Mexico remain other state cells even when labor markets or projects cross those lines. Publishing Phoenix versus Tucson as a subtotal would invent a number.

Place of performance can follow work in-state, a recipient address, or a reporting convention. Department of Veterans Affairs is the 036 hub without a Arizona filter. Use it for the agency book; use this page for the AZ intersection only.
