Follow Up Questions

Which specific contracts and companies are included in the Jan. 22 posting?Expand

The Jan. 22 posting itself lists specific Navy, Army, Air Force and other awards on the linked War.gov contracts page; the short summary does not enumerate awardees, dollar amounts, or contract text — those details are on the full daily posting at the War.gov URL.

How can I access the full contract documents, award amounts, and awardees on War.gov?Expand

Go to the War.gov contracts page for Jan. 22, 2026 (the URL in the announcement); the full posting there contains the individual entries with contractor names, contract numbers, award amounts, descriptions, fund types and contracting-office contacts — the Department posts daily contract lists on its Contracts news page.

Why is the $7.5 million threshold used for this posting?Expand

The $7.5 million figure is the Department��������'s public- release threshold for its daily contracts bulletin (a newsroom/practice decision to limit which awards are posted each business day); regulatory reporting thresholds (e.g., DFARS) use different statutory amounts (DoD reporting is set at $9 million under DFARS), so the daily posting threshold is an internal/public-affairs standard rather than a statutory single figure.

Do these public postings include any redactions or omit classified/sensitive contracts?Expand

Yes — public contract announcements routinely redact or omit classified, sensitive, or national-security details; classified/controlled information and some sensitive procurement details are withheld under information-security rules, and certain contracts (or parts) are excluded from public release for classification, safety or operational security reasons.

What office within the Department of War is responsible for publishing these contract notices?Expand

Per DoD practice and DFARS guidance, public contract announcements are handled through the Office of the Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Public Affairs (the department public-affairs/news office) in coordination with the servicing contracting offices.

How can the public find information about oversight, audits, or protest mechanisms related to these awards?Expand

Oversight and remedies are available via agency inspectors general, the Government Accountability Office (bid protests to the U.S. Court of Federal Claims and GAO protests), and DoD internal audit/oversight offices; information on audits, IG reports and protest procedures is available from the DoD Inspector General, GAO bid protest guidance, and federal procurement rules (FAR/DFARS).
