New federal awards in Washington, August 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.
116 new federal awards of $1.0M or more were recorded with a primary place of performance in Washington in August 2026, worth $494M in total award value: $165M in contracts, $327M in grants, $1.5M in other assistance.
That is about the same as the state's median month over the last two years (96 awards) and 2.7% of the 4,338 such awards recorded nationwide that month.
The most active awarding agencies were Department of Transportation (38 awards), Department of Commerce (6 awards) and Department of Agriculture (29 awards).

Questions and answers
How many federal awards were made in Washington in August 2026?
116 new prime awards of $1.0M or more with a primary place of performance in Washington carry a base obligation date in August 2026, with a combined award value of $494M. Smaller awards and modifications to older awards are not counted.
Who received them?
Washington ST Department of Transportation (21, $79M); Washington State University (3, $52M); Skagit Transit (3, $26M); Quigg Bros., Inc. (1, $24M); Kitsap Transit (2, $21M). 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.
