How to read this
  • Federal IT Dashboard (itdashboard.gov): the IT investments agencies report to OMB and what each budgets for them per fiscal year (26 CFO Act agencies plus a few others; classified and some legislative/judicial IT not included). IT spending = the agency's own funding (money other agencies contribute counts with those agencies, so nothing is counted twice). Recent years are plans and budget requests; earlier years what was spent. It's a budget, not contract awards: much of it is federal staff and IT the agency runs itself. Years loaded: FY2021–FY2025.
