FY2024 USAspending in Florida's 3rd district

Why FL-03 is not a contractor HQ list

FL-03 dollars are tagged by where USAspending records performance, not by where a firm files its HQ. That split matters for $7.6B: work performed in the 3rd district can land here even if the vendor sits elsewhere. Work performed outside the 3rd does not enter this file merely because a headquarters is local. Recipient-location maps are a different cut from this $7.6B file.

Even for a numbered Florida seat, the district field is still place of performance, not recipient headquarters. A contractor based in another Florida district or another state can appear on FL-03 if the performance location is coded to the 3rd. A 3rd-district headquarters can post dollars to another district when performance is coded there. The 18,829 rows follow that field, not the contractor's legal address.

What $7.6B measures on FL-03

Agencies obligated $7.6B in FY2024 on awards coded to Florida District 03 as place of performance. Cite the exact packet sum as $7,582,111,844.21 when a briefing needs the unrounded figure. This page does not translate $7.6B into outlays. 18,829 awards are the FY2024 action stock.

$7.6B remains the obligation total for the indexed FY2024 extract. If another Florida headline disagrees, check series, fiscal year, and whether geography is performance or headquarters. The precise statement is that agencies obligated $7.6B on 18,829 awards with FL-03 place of performance. Multi-year vehicles can obligate here and invoice later.

18,829 records beside $7.6B

18,829 awards is the FY2024 record count for FL-03 place of performance. That is a high action count next to $7.6B, but it is still a row stock, not a headcount of Florida firms. The packet does not list unique recipients or an agency mix. Modifications and assistance actions can each add a line.

Do not treat 18,829 as 18,829 local companies. One recipient can appear many times. This page will not publish an average award as if USAspending printed one. Sort the Florida District 03 table by amount to see whether $7.6B is spread across many lines or concentrated. FL-03 lists 18,829 awards against $7.6B, a higher action count than several other Florida districts at a similar dollar scale.

Why $7.6B is not cash paid

Recipient-location maps, calendar-year totals, and state budget documents are other products. Match geography, year, and series before treating a disagreement with $7.6B as an error. Cite FL-03 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $7.6B on 18,829 awards. Do not mix that total into an outlay sheet or a headquarters extract.

The $7.6B total is the obligation series. Outlays measure disbursements and can lag. SpendingVault does not recast FL-03 as cash paid. Mixing the two series makes the 3rd district look inconsistent when the files are measuring different events. An FY2024 obligation can fund later invoices.

Unspecified Florida dollars live elsewhere

Unspecified Florida dollars, if USAspending could not map them to a voting district, belong on a 90 page. Non-voting 98 rows are another leftover. FL-03 is the 3rd mapped seat. Keep $7.6B on District 03. 18,829 awards share that numbered performance code, not a leftover bin.

Florida District 03 is not the Florida statewide total. The state page is the roll-up; this page is District 03 only. Do not add leftover 90/98 rows to $7.6B. The all-districts index lists mapped seats and leftover codes without mixing their dollars. 18,829 awards remain the FL-03 count.

Citing FL-03 without mixing statewide totals

Florida District 03 can be briefed as $7.6B in FY2024 obligations on 18,829 awards with numbered code FL-03. Treat 18,829 as an action stock, not unique vendors. Keep other Florida numbered districts and any District 90 leftover on other rows. What this packet supplies is FL-03 place-of-performance commitments from USAspending.gov, not outlays, not a headquarters extract, and not a multi-year series.

The Florida District 03 hub is the live table for FL-03. The Florida page is the statewide obligation index. The all-districts index is the directory of other mapped seats and leftover codes. Quote $7.6B only with place of performance, federal FY2024, and the obligation series. FL-03 lists 18,829 awards against $7.6B, a higher action count than several other Florida districts at a similar dollar scale.

Florida District 03 can be quoted in one sentence: $7.6B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations on 18,829 awards with FL-03 place of performance. The unrounded packet total is $7,582,111,844.21. That sentence already names the series (obligations), the year (federal FY2024), the geography (place of performance, not headquarters), and the district code (FL-03, a numbered 3rd seat rather than leftover 90/98 or at-large 00). SpendingVault does not add a unique-recipient count, an agency mix, or an outlay conversion. Readers who need the underlying rows should open the Florida District 03 hub; readers who need statewide Florida should open the Florida page. Do not average $7.6B across 18,829 awards. Do not fold unspecified Florida leftover dollars into $7.6B. First year and last year in this extract are both 2024.

Questions

How many awards are in Florida District 03's FY2024 file?

The FY2024 extract lists 18,829 awards with FL-03 place of performance. That count is record volume, not unique vendors. The matching obligation total is $7.6B ($7,582,111,844.21). Modifications and assistance actions can each add a row. The packet does not publish a unique-recipient total.

Is FL-03 a non-voting 98 code?

No. District 98 is a USAspending non-voting bucket. FL-03 is numbered District 03, a voting House seat. District 90 is the unspecified leftover. Keep $7.6B on the mapped 3rd page. 18,829 awards share the FL-03 tag, not 90 or 98.

Why might a firm outside the 3rd appear on this page?

No. The district is place of performance. Recipients based outside the 3rd can still appear on FL-03 if the performance location is coded to the 3rd. A 3rd-district headquarters can also map dollars to another district when performance is coded there. 18,829 awards follow the performance field, not HQ.

What series is $7.6B on USAspending.gov?

No. $7.6B is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert the Florida District 03 obligation total into Treasury outlays. Cite the figure with the obligation label, the FY2024 window, and FL-03 place of performance. 18,829 awards are the matching record count.
