The 20 companies that get the most money from the US government, ranked by contract value

Data is Beautiful – VeridionData – Top 20 Federal Government Contractor by Contract Value

  • Sources: SAM.gov/FPDS 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.
