So they hire outside consultants to do the work? So they hire twenty people, or thirty people or whatever, and now suddenly these people need office space to work out of, computers....
I am just guessing of course.

This is accurate. They tend to assign a special investigator and give them a budget. That person the hires people, pays for for those people's expenses etc. Of course it's the government so they grossly overpay for everything.
