Sources:Â [SAM.gov/FPDS](http://sam.gov/FPDS)Â FY2023 all-federal contract obligations, supplemented with FY2024 DoD data from Defense Security Monitor and Washington Technology Top 100.
FY2023 because it’s the latest complete all-agency dataset publicly available. Subsidiaries rolled up under parent companies. I handle the sector labels; some companies straddle categories.
What’s missing: Classified spending, subcontracts, and IT reseller pass-through. AWS and Palo Alto sell billions to gov through aggregators like Carahsoft, so their prime contract numbers are way understated.
Tools: HTML/CSS, Puppeteer for export.

By contract dollar value. Value is rather harder to measure.

Peace through power type of contracts

I think Leidos and SAIC are also essentially defense. Just defense IT. Also booz Allen Hamilton and Honeywell are probably adjacent as well. Lots of money in defense.

UHG getting 17 billion.
Meanwhile, my triple CABG that Mayo insists I need was denied as not medically necessary, and currently in appeal status. With, you guessed it, UHG.

I love my tax money going to the companies that will lobby to make my life worse
