# DoD Awards $556M to Hawaii Contractors

The Department of Defense awarded Hawaii-based contractors more than $556 million across 5,721 awards in FY 2026, averaging $97,323 per award. Nan Inc. led the listed firms with $325.1 million across eight awards, followed by Laukoa at $46.1 million and Y. Hata & Co. at $39.0 million. The awards span Army, Navy, and Defense Logistics Agency work, with Navy projects accounting for a significant share of spending. These figures describe aggregated award activity, not a single solicitation or contract.

- The concentration of reported value at Nan Inc. and the stated Navy spending share give contractors useful benchmarks for assessing the Hawaii defense market and agency-level award patterns.
- Businesses pursuing DoD work in Hawaii can use the Army, Navy, and DLA activity mix to focus market research and evaluate where their capabilities may complement established awardees.
