How do I view or obtain copies of executed contracts entered into
between the defense contractor Boeing and the the US Government
preferably over the Internet.

Hi! Thanks for the question.

You can obtain copies from these two websites. Just type the word
"boeing" and you can get copies of the contracts they are involved in.
You can also adjust for the dates you want to view.

Request for Answer Clarification by lahman-ga on 22 Mar 2005 06:33 PST

Thank you for your prompt and helpful response.

I have been to both of these links before since I've been looking for
these documents for nearly a month; however, your response caused me
to revisit them and better realize the information available there. 
Your answer was helpful and certainly worth the fee.

However, what I want is to see copies of "executed contracts".  By
this I mean the actual pieces of paper (or images in TIFF or PDF) with
actual signatures of persons within the Government and Boeing
authorized to sign those contracts.  I understand that a FOIA should
work but I am asking where I can view these online -- if I can view
them online.

Hi lahman-ga!

Thank you for your kind words,

Before posting an answer I tried to find such copies of the contract
but cannot find any. Since I was able to find the text, I thought this
would serve the purpose because I assumed you were interested mainly
in the terms.

I apologize that I cannot find an image of the actual contract. I hope
you understand.

Thanks!

The contract information you are looking for is probably "Commercial
in Confidence". As such you may need to contact both the relevant
government department AND the awardee for permission to access the
documents.

I would begin by speaking to the government body involved in each
executed contract. If the information is publicly available they might
be able to tell you where to find it, otherwise they can advise you
further on how to obtain the information.

The websites mentioned should be able to provide you with contact
details for each awarded contract. If not, I would recommend visiting
www.fedopps.com and perhaps contacting someone @fedopps.com if you
need help or further information.

Good luck!
