Daily list of military contracts over 5 mil

[stephinrome]

I learned of this just a few months ago. There is a list published every weekday at 5pm by the Defense Department of all contracts awarded that day, but only those over USD 5,000,000 (FIVE MILLION DOLLARS). I occasionally look in to see what's on the list. At first I was suprised to see a long list each and every day, but when you think about the hundreds of billions spent each year, a certain amount of "creativity" is needed.

Here's the list for April 5. See the archives at: http://www.defenselink.mil/contracts/

1. Thanks stephinrome and welcome to DU! I hope

someone jumps in and explains what some of the terms used mean.

cost plus award fee contract modification?

a task order under the DISA I-ASSURE contract?

cost-plus-fixed-fee contract?

firm-fixed-price contract?

I wonder who owns these corps. and if there was actual competitive bidding on many of the awarded contracts? I wonder if some are Helliburton subsidies or sub-contractors?

I have trouble looking for the owners of corporations, always end up frustrated. Maybe I haven't been doing it right. I just never know where to dig it's such a complex task these days.
