Colorado 4th District

NAICS 541710 × CO-04 is a Front Range R&D join, not a PI roster

This page is a join: Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (NAICS 541710) as the industry key, and Colorado 4th District (CO-04) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $14,902,004,813.81 on 1 awards. The join is NAICS 541710 crossed with a CO-04 place-of-performance field, not Colorado's entire R&D book and not a named-laboratory inventory. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district received more, and not a claim that 1 awards equal 1 principal investigator or 1 unique laboratory.

Other 541710 district joins in this slice sit outside this total unless they also carry NAICS 541710 and CO-04. Mixing those books into $14,902,004,813.81 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and local scientific employment is not causation. PI names, lab names, and project titles are not in the packet. Place of performance as CO-04 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $14,902,004,813.81 in a district treasury. Fort Collins-versus-Greeley folklore is not a geography split in this packet.

1 awards behind $14.90 billion

Mean obligation is about $14,902,004,813.81 if $14,902,004,813.81 were divided evenly across 1 lines. That ratio is not a published program cost — here the mean equals the single award. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of laboratories, PIs, or unique vendors. One award against a fourteen-billion-dollar cell is a single-instrument R&D file, not a thick grant dump.

A large research vehicle can post as one enormous row. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Colorado 4th District for the stored district table. Do not convert 1 into a map of Colorado 4th District laboratories. The $14,902,004,813.81 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a PI census.
