FedSpending.org Adds New Data, Features
by Adam Hughes*, 9/20/2007
FedSpending.org has launched a new version today, with updated data from parts of FY 2006 and FY 2007, new features and search functionality, greater accessibility for people with disabilities, and a few bug fixes in the site. The site now contains contracting data through the second quarter of FY 2007 and federal assistance data through the first three quarters of FY 2006.
In addition, users now have the ability to narrow contracting searches by using contractor characteristics, such as "minority owned business," or "8A firms," just to name a few. This function is called "Contractor Type" and can be found in all the advanced searches on the contracts side of the database.
Read the OMB Watch press release, or check out the site for more information on the new version.
