Monthly award list · Colorado
New federal awards in Colorado, July 2026
Prime awards of $1.0M or more with a base obligation date in the month and a primary place of performance in the state.
USAspending caveat. Figures are obligations reported by federal agencies to USAspending.gov, not payments. In USAspending's words: "An outlay occurs when federal money is actually paid out, not just promised to be paid ('obligated')." "Every agency has a Senior Accountable Official who must officially certify that the quarterly financial data submitted by their agency is accurate and complete." "If there are any discrepancies in procurement data, FPDS is the authoritative source." Contract data for the Department of Defense and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is published with a 90-day delay. Data loaded 30 Sep 2026; agencies keep reporting into recent months.
90 new federal awards of $1.0M or more were recorded with a primary place of performance in Colorado in July 2026, worth $553M in total award value: $94M in contracts, $434M in grants, $25M in other assistance.
That is about the same as the state's median month over the last two years (87 awards) and 2% of the 4,520 such awards recorded nationwide that month.
The most active awarding agencies were Department of Education (13 awards), Department of Transportation (23 awards) and Department of Agriculture (14 awards).

Questions and answers
How many federal awards were made in Colorado in July 2026?
90 new prime awards of $1.0M or more with a primary place of performance in Colorado carry a base obligation date in July 2026, with a combined award value of $553M. Smaller awards and modifications to older awards are not counted.
Who received them?
Board of Education Colorado (11, $211M); Regional Transportation District (1, $93M); Colorado Department of Transportation (8, $37M); The Geo Group, Inc. (1, $30M); City of Colorado Springs Airport (1, $13M). Individuals are never listed.

No. Award value is the amount obligated to the award so far as USAspending reports it; obligations are commitments, and outlays (actual payments) follow later, often over several years.
