Structural flags (3)

  • Obligations ≥ 3× initial obligation

    These contracts grew to at least three times the money they started with, through later changes. Some contracts are planned to grow; others grow past what was originally agreed.

    growth_ratio=4.12 · total_obligation=51,212,717 · initial_obligation=12,426,800 · modification_count=8

    Rule modification_growth, methodology v1.3.0 definition and caveats

  • Under 5% of obligated dollars disbursed at least halfway through the period of performance

    The government promised this money a while ago, but almost none of it has actually been paid out yet, even though the work period is at least half over. That is normal for things built slowly — ships, buildings, long research — and sometimes worth a closer look for things that are not.

  • Competed award, single offer received

    These contracts were officially open for any company to compete, but only one company showed up. Sometimes only one company really can do the job; sometimes the contest was set up so only one could win.
