Top federal contractors: FY2023

≈ computed · contract dollars

Lockheed Martin Corporation was the largest holder of U.S. federal contracts in FY2023, with $69.2B in contract-coded obligations. Ranked by contract-coded (NAICS) obligations, so entitlement grants routed through state agencies do not crowd out the primes. Combined corporate families count once. ≈ computed

Questions

Who is the largest federal contractor in FY2023?
Lockheed Martin Corporation, with $69.2B in contract-coded obligations in FY2023, ahead of General Dynamics Corporation at $25.6B.
Why are big grant recipients missing from this list?
This ranks CONTRACT dollars only. Universities, states and health systems receive enormous federal ASSISTANCE, which is ranked separately at /rankings/top-grant-recipients so neither list crowds out the other.
Where does this ranking come from?
It is computed from USASpending.gov award records, which are U.S. government works and in the public domain. Each figure is the recipient's contract-coded obligations for FY2023. TheFiscalFinder does the ranking; the underlying figures are the government's own.
How many contractors are shown?
The top 100 for FY2023. Each row opens that contractor's own page, where the same money is broken out by year, by counterparty and by place.
Does a high position mean anything is wrong?
No. This is a description of where public money went in FY2023, computed from public records. It is not an allegation about anyone on it.

Why the labels? The graph is only worth anything if the links are trusted. Facts taken straight from a federal filing are ✓ from source; figures we calculate are ≈ computed; links we infer (corporate parents, districts, competitors, connections between records) are ≈ inferred, worded carefully, never asserted as fact and never a claim that one thing caused another.
