Methodology Change: The Defense Spending by State reports for Fiscal Years 2018 through 2020 contain one significant change from prior reports. From FY 2013 through FY 2017, the Defense Spending by State report reflected the length of each prime contract in USAspending.gov. Such adjustments were not made for the figures in subsequent reports due to data quality concerns (e.g., some contracts appear to have activity long after the end of the period of performance). The analysis continues, however, to adjust the prime obligations to reflect the year and place of performance of sub-awards.
