Individual contracts × USAspending

Largest federal contracts (individual)

The largest single federal contracts by amount (recipient, awarding agency, value). Many at the top are multi-year contract vehicles or ceilings (IDVs), not one-year spending.

An organization of public government data, not an official U.S. government site. Aggregates cover collected data, and rankings are based on name-level aggregation.

What the data shows

The top features TRICARE military-health insurers and management contracts for Department of Energy national laboratories (Lockheed, Sandia, UT-Battelle, etc.). Amounts are often contract ceilings (IDVs spanning years and orders); actual yearly spending is smaller. A different lens from the cumulative top-contractors ranking: the scale of a single contract.

FAQ

What does this ranking show?
The largest single federal contracts by amount, with recipient, awarding agency, and value. Unlike the top-contractors ranking (cumulative per company), this shows the scale of one contract.
Why are the amounts so large?
Many at the top are contract vehicles or ceilings (IDVs — the cap of an umbrella contract) spanning multiple years and orders. Actual yearly spending is usually smaller. Examples: military health (TRICARE), management of Department of Energy national laboratories.
What is the source?
Federal contracts (award types A–D) from U.S. spending data (USAspending), sorted by amount. No individuals — recipients are organizations.
