Where the Department's dollars actually go.

The whole Department of Justice (USAspending toptier agency 015) as recorded in the public spending feed: budgetary resources and obligations by fiscal year, and the largest contract awards. The execution side of the topline — what the money becomes once it's obligated. Most DOJ money flows as salaries, grants, and detention; contracts are the procurement slice.

Data currency

DOJ publishes contract-award detail without the Department of War's 90-day OPSEC withholding. Normal USAspending reporting lag still applies, so the contracts table is shown for the latest fully-loaded fiscal year; the in-progress fiscal year is partial and would understate.
