USAspending shows $179M in obligations to this recipient in 3 of the 5 fiscal years from FY2023 to FY2027.
The obligations in FY2026 were under $1 million, so the site does not list them.
The obligations in FY2027 to date are under $1 million.
The awards of $1 million or more that started since FY2023 came from 3 agencies.
The largest award value came from the Agency for International Development.
A fiscal year under $1 million is not in the total.
New York: the address of the recipient.
The amounts for each state. Outlines: US Census Bureau.
An outlay occurs when federal money is actually paid out, not just promised to be paid ("obligated").
Procurement data (such as for contracts and indefinite delivery vehicles (IDV)) for the Department of Defense (DOD) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) are published on a 90-day delay in the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS).
Maintaining data quality for the award description field has been persistently challenging for federal agencies.
These are the words of USAspending. Sources: USAspending.gov, About the Data (PDF, last updated 19 November 2025) and USAspending.gov, Glossary. The site copied them on .
The amounts on this page are obligations. An obligation is a promise to pay. It is not a payment. Contract records of the Department of Defense come late, so a recent month can be low. The text under a name in a list of awards is the description that the agency wrote.
