Bureau of Indian Affairs's contract dollars, traced to the source.
Bureau of Indian Affairs · Department of the Interior
The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), within the Department of the Interior, administers federal trust responsibilities and delivers services to federally recognized tribes, including the school system run by its sister Bureau of Indian Education. Its contract dollars are overwhelmingly construction: the largest FY2025 awards are design-build and replacement projects for tribal schools — Many Farms High School, T'iis Nazbas Community School, Chi Chil Tah, Crystal Boarding School, and Tonalea Day School — with single awards ranging from roughly $73M to $219M. Across the roughly $0.37B in FY2025 contract obligations, school facility construction dominates the top of the ledger.

What this monitor reads — and what it doesn't
This is the contract-signal tier: the live USAspending award feed for the Bureau of Indian Affairs and Bureau of Indian Education awarding sub-agency. It shows where BIA's procurement dollars go — obligations over time and the largest awards — not total budget authority, which also includes payroll, grants, and transfers. Figures reflect the contract (procurement) slice from USAspending prime-award data, not BIA's total budget authority or program appropriations. The appropriation-level view lives on the Department of the Interior monitor.
