DoD prime award obligations FY2027, no FY27 NDAA
If no Act authorizing appropriations for military activities of the Department of Defense for fiscal year 2027 is enacted into law on or before 2026-12-31, what will USAspending API v2 report for Department of Defense agency 097 prime award obligations for fiscal year 2027, using the obligations field from /api/v2/agency/097/awards/?fiscal_year=2027, transformed to billions USD, in the registered query snapshot first print?
conditional on: No Act authorizing appropriations for military activities of the Department of Defense for fiscal year 2027 (the FY2027 NDAA; the House-reported bill is H.R. 8800, 119th Congress) is enacted into law on or before 2026-12-31.

Key drivers
- two-year persistence benchmark from FY2025
- no-FY2027-NDAA condition implies authorization delay
- appropriations, not authorization, drive award budget authority
- large historical annual award-timing volatility
- FY2026 current API value is incomplete year-to-date
Resolution
- source
- USAspending API v2, agency 097 award summary
- expected
- October 22, 2027
- rule
- Resolve from USAspending API v2 agency 097 awards endpoint, fiscal_year=2027, field obligations, for Department of Defense prime award obligations in fiscal year 2027. Use the first registered-query snapshot in the lab-committed expected release window 2027-10-15 through 2027-10-22, multiply obligations by 1e-9, and round to 0.1 billions USD. Later USAspending revisions after that first snapshot are ignored. Resolve only if the condition is satisfied; if any Act authorizing appropriations for military activities of the Department of Defense for fiscal year 2027 is enacted into law on or before 2026-12-31, this conditional cell is unresolved.
