New federal awards in South Dakota, January 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.
11 new federal awards of $1.0M or more were recorded with a primary place of performance in South Dakota in January 2026, worth $37M in total award value: $15M in contracts, $21M in grants, $1.1M in other assistance.
That is fewer than the state's median month over the last two years (27 awards) and 0.3% of the 4,129 such awards recorded nationwide that month.
The most active awarding agencies were Department of Health and Human Services (4 awards), Department of Defense (2 awards) and Department of Housing and Urban Development (1 award).
