Aircraft engines versus pharmaceutical preparation

Ohio’s lead NAICS is aircraft engine and engine parts manufacturing. Texas’s is pharmaceutical preparation manufacturing. An engine-parts peak is a first read on Ohio’s $8.1B mix. A drug-manufacturing peak is a first read on Texas’s $72.7B mix. Propulsion hardware and pharmaceuticals are not the same label.

The 168,038 Ohio awards and 530,634 Texas awards include many actions outside those two industries. Use the Ohio and Texas state hubs for agencies and recipients. Both peaks are USAspending.gov obligation mixes. Outlays are not in the packet.
