USAspending in Kansas District 04, FY2024

Thirty-two thousand one hundred seventy award records

USAspending counts 32,170 awards with Kansas District 04 place of performance in FY2024. Those records sum to $8.2 billion in obligations. A file this thick is almost certainly many small actions rather than 32,170 unique companies. The packet has no unique-recipient count, so 32,170 remains a stock of award actions.

Because first year and last year are both 2024, the 32,170 figure is a single-fiscal-year stock. It is not a running inventory of every award ever performed in the 4th district. Later USAspending.gov corrections can revise both the dollar sum and the award count.

Place of performance, not an HQ census of the 4th

Place of performance assigns the district. Recipient headquarters do not. Federal work coded to Kansas’s 4th district can be performed by vendors based in other Kansas districts or in other states. Those awards still sit in the $8.2 billion if the performance tag is KS-04.

Firms with offices inside District 04 can be missing when the work is coded to another Kansas district, to Kansas’s unspecified District 90 bucket, or to another state. HQ lists of “4th district contractors” will not reproduce this file. The $8,170,597,562 total follows the KS-04 performance code only.

Numbered seat versus unspecified 90/98 codes

Kansas District 04 is a voting House district. USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets are 90 and 98. This page’s $8.2 billion is mapped to the 4th district’s performance code. Unmapped Kansas performance, if present, would appear on a 90-coded hub, not here.

The Kansas 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. The all-districts index lists other Kansas seats in the same format.

Obligations, not disbursements

SpendingVault’s district totals are obligations: legal commitments recorded in USAspending. Outlays are payments. The $8.2 billion figure is the former. Contract vehicles can obligate in one year and invoice across several.

The precise FY2024 statement is that agencies obligated $8.2 billion on 32,170 awards with KS-04 place of performance. It is not a statement that $8,170,597,562 was paid in cash inside the district that year. FY2024 is the only year in the facts. Federal FY2024 starts October 1.

Kansas pages that sit beside this hub

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

This packet does not publish other Kansas district totals. None of those other dollars sits inside $8.2 billion. Keep KS-04 citations on the obligation series and the FY2024 window.

How to read a 32,170-row Kansas file

Thirty-two thousand one hundred seventy awards summing to $8.2 billion is a thick numbered-district file. That row volume is almost certainly many small actions. It is not 32,170 unique vendors. The Kansas District 04 hub is the only place in this project to inspect the mix; the packet has no agency split.

Cite KS-04 as $8.2 billion in FY2024 USAspending obligations on 32,170 awards with numbered code KS-04. Keep other Kansas seats and any District 90 leftover on other rows. Obligations are not outlays. Headquarters in the 4th without a KS-04 tag does not enter this file. Work coded to KS-04 from a vendor based elsewhere does enter $8.2 billion. Until a later extract, report $8,170,597,562 and 32,170 awards for KS-04 place of performance as obligations, not outlays.

Questions

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

USAspending.gov records $8.2 billion in FY2024 obligations with a Kansas District 04 place of performance, across 32,170 awards. The exact sum is $8,170,597,562. These are obligations, not outlays. District is performance location, not headquarters. The facts cover FY2024 only.

Why does District 04 have 32,170 awards?

That is the FY2024 award-record count for the KS-04 place-of-performance code. It is not a unique-vendor count. Those records sum to $8.2 billion in obligations. A thick file usually means many smaller actions. The packet does not break the file by agency.

Is Kansas District 04 a 90-code unspecified bucket?

No. District 04 is a numbered Kansas congressional district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets. The $8.2 billion total is mapped to District 04, not to those residual codes. The KS-04 tag is the geography rule.

Do contractors headquartered in the 4th district all appear here?

No. Only awards with KS-04 place of performance enter the $8.2 billion and 32,170-award totals. A headquarters in the district is not sufficient. Work coded to another Kansas district or another state will appear elsewhere. Cite the figure with the obligation label, the FY2024 window, and KS-04 place of performance.
