← Mar 2026May 2026 →

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.

61 new federal awards of $1.0M or more were recorded with a primary place of performance in Kentucky in April 2026, worth $409M in total award value: $299M in contracts, $111M in grants.

That is about the same as the state's median month over the last two years (61 awards) and 1.3% of the 4,748 such awards recorded nationwide that month.

The most active awarding agencies were Department of Defense (19 awards), Department of Transportation (13 awards) and Department of Housing and Urban Development (11 awards).

Questions and answers

How many federal awards were made in Kentucky in April 2026?

61 new prime awards of $1.0M or more with a primary place of performance in Kentucky carry a base obligation date in April 2026, with a combined award value of $409M. Smaller awards and modifications to older awards are not counted.

Who received them?
