USAspending in Iowa District 04, FY2024

Fifty-eight thousand four hundred seventy-seven FY2024 actions

USAspending counts 58,477 awards with Iowa District 04 place of performance in FY2024. Those records sum to $8.6 billion in obligations. 58,477 is a thick action file: large enough that many rows are likely modifications or smaller awards, but the packet does not prove the mix. It is not 58,477 unique companies.

Because first year and last year are both 2024, the count is a single-fiscal-year stock. It is not every award ever performed in the 4th. Later USAspending.gov corrections can revise 58,477 and $8,600,889,536.83 together or separately. Iowa District 01 is a separate numbered hub; this packet does not quote its total.

Place of performance in Iowa’s 4th

The district tag is where performance is coded, not where the recipient’s headquarters sits. Federal work tagged IA-04 can be performed by vendors based in other Iowa districts or other states and still sit inside $8.6 billion.

Firms with offices in the 4th can be missing when performance is coded to another Iowa district, to Iowa’s unspecified District 90 bucket, or to another state. Headquarters directories will not reproduce the 58,477-row file.

A numbered seat, not leftover code 90

Iowa District 04 is a voting House district. USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets are 90 and 98. This page’s $8.6 billion is mapped to the 4th district’s performance code. Unmapped Iowa performance, if present, would appear on a 90-coded hub.

The Iowa state page mixes numbered districts and any residual codes. Use that page for a statewide place-of-performance total. Use this page when the question is specifically District 04 performance location in FY2024.

Obligations are not cash paid

SpendingVault’s district totals are obligations: legal commitments recorded in USAspending. Outlays are payments. The $8.6 billion figure is the former. Vehicles can obligate in FY2024 and invoice across later years.

The precise statement is that agencies obligated $8.6 billion on 58,477 awards with IA-04 place of performance in FY2024. It is not a statement that $8,600,889,536.83 left the Treasury inside the 4th that year. Federal FY2024 starts October 1.

Iowa pages that sit beside IA-04

The Iowa District 04 hub is the award table. The Iowa state page is the statewide rollup. The all-districts index links to other Iowa numbered districts and to unspecified 90/98 codes. A headquarters in the 4th without an IA-04 performance tag does not enter this file.

This packet does not publish other Iowa district totals. None of those other dollars sits inside $8.6 billion. Keep IA-04 citations on obligations and the FY2024 window.

How to cite the 4th-district extract

Cite IA-04 as $8.6 billion in FY2024 USAspending obligations on 58,477 awards with numbered code IA-04. Treat 58,477 as an action stock, not unique vendors. Keep other Iowa numbered districts and any District 90 leftover on other rows.

Work coded to IA-04 from a vendor based elsewhere does enter $8.6 billion. The Iowa state page rolls all Iowa codes and will not equal $8,600,889,536.83. Until a later extract, report $8.6 billion and 58,477 awards for IA-04 place of performance as obligations, not outlays.

Iowa District 04 can be briefed as $8.6 billion in FY2024 obligations on 58,477 awards with numbered code IA-04. Treat 58,477 as an action stock, not unique vendors. Keep other Iowa numbered districts and any District 90 leftover on other rows. What this packet supplies is IA-04 place-of-performance commitments from USAspending.gov, not outlays, not a headquarters extract, and not a multi-year series. A headquarters in the 4th without an IA-04 tag does not enter this file. Work coded to IA-04 from a vendor based elsewhere does enter $8.6 billion.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Iowa District 04 for FY2024?

USAspending.gov records $8.6 billion in FY2024 obligations with an Iowa District 04 place of performance, across 58,477 awards. The exact sum is $8,600,889,536.83. These are obligations, not outlays. District is performance location, not headquarters. The facts cover FY2024 only.

What does 58,477 awards mean for IA-04?

That is the FY2024 award-record count for the IA-04 place-of-performance code. It is not a unique-vendor count. Those records sum to $8.6 billion in obligations. Modifications can each add a row. The packet does not break the file by agency.

Is Iowa District 04 a 90-code unspecified bucket?

No. District 04 is a numbered Iowa congressional district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets. The $8.6 billion total is mapped to District 04, not to those residual codes.

Do contractors headquartered in the 4th all appear here?

No. Only awards with IA-04 place of performance enter the $8.6 billion and 58,477-award totals. A headquarters in the district is not sufficient. Work coded to another Iowa district or another state will appear elsewhere. Cite obligations, FY2024, and place of performance.
