Top 10 Federal Contractors
Halliburton Co.
Total awards:
$ 6,099,064,859
Awards from the Department of Defense:
$ 5,956,162,998
What they do: The most well-known of the "body shops," corporations which provide manpower to complete projects that are beyond the capability of government agencies, Halliburton has been a major recipient of contracts involved in the reconstruction of Iraq. "The eastern hemisphere" has been so central to the company's business that it announced plans earlier this year to relocate its headquarters from Houston to Dubai. Vice president Dick Cheney was at the helm during the late-1990s, eliciting allegations of a conflict of interest every time the federal government grants Halliburton a contract.
