I didn't save the link but apparently a number of firms with close ties to the Democratic party (the non-Bush party) have also recieved large contracts in Louisiana where the government is mostly controlled by Democrats. The media seems to enjoy connecting contracts to Republicans more than they like connecting them to Democrats. The truth is that there are generally not that many large companies able to take on some of these tasks. So while some may be the result of connections many just happen to go to companies that are good at what they do.

Are there actually any companies that aren't connected to political parties?
