3 unique entity identifiers Total obligations: $9.90B FY2017–FY2026 medium confidence

Total obligations carry a derived USAspending citation — click the figure to inspect the derivation. Confidence reflects entity resolution method (see methodology §4).

Family-level obligations: $9.90B— constant across all filing years listed below and non-additive (do not sum across rows; this figure is total family obligations over FY2017–FY2026, across the Department of Defense award corpus this site ingests — not all federal spending).

Lobbying Activity

Filings from the Senate Lobbying Disclosure Act database. Amounts are raw USD from LDA filings. Correlation is shown, not causation.

Wider than this screen — swipe the table sideways for the remaining columns.

Lobbying dollar aggregates carry derived LDA citations — click a figure for the formula and constituent filings. This table shows lobbying activity side by side with federal obligations; lobbying and contracts reflect correlation, not causation. Income and expense are alternative disclosures on an LDA filing — a registrant reports one or the other — so they are not summed here. Read each column on its own.

Budget Program Mentions

Program elements with keyword co-occurrence in this company’s lobbying filings — a documented connection, not a statement that the filing names the program or that the company holds the program’s budget or work. For links backed by an actual award record, see Budget-Linked Awards below.

LDA Filing Mentions (726)

Lobbying filings with keyword co-occurrence against a tracked budget program — never a claim that the filing names the program. One row per filing × program, qualifying only when the exact PE/BLI code appears, a curated alias appears, or at least two distinct, non-generic title words appear together in the same filing (a single common word is never sufficient on its own — see the evidence tier badge on each row below). This is a documented co-occurrence, not evidence that the company works on the program.
