New federal awards in Iowa, April 2026Awards of $1 million or more with a place of performance in Iowa
USAspending shows 28 new awards of $1 million or more in Iowa in April 2026.
The place of performance of each award is in the state. The base obligation date is in the month.
The award value of these awards is $106M.
The median of the last 24 months in Iowa is 47 such awards. A month with no such award is not in the median.
All states together have 4,814 such awards in April 2026.
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).

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.
