USAspending in Massachusetts District 07, FY2024

Thirty thousand sixty-one award records

USAspending counts 30,061 awards with Massachusetts District 07 place of performance in FY2024. Those records sum to $25.9 billion in obligations. A file this thick is almost certainly many small actions — task orders, modifications, assistance — rather than 30,061 unique companies. The packet has no unique-recipient count, so that remains an inference about row structure, not a vendor census.

Because first year and last year are both 2024, the 30,061 figure is a single-fiscal-year stock. It is not a running inventory of every award ever performed in the 7th district.

Place of performance, not an HQ census

Place of performance assigns the district. Recipient headquarters do not. Federal work coded to Massachusetts’s 7th district can be performed by vendors based in other Massachusetts districts or in other states. Those awards still sit in the $25.9 billion if the performance tag is MA-07.

Firms with offices inside District 07 can be missing when the work is coded to another numbered Massachusetts district, to Massachusetts’s unspecified District 90 bucket, or to another state. HQ lists of “7th district contractors” will not reproduce this file.

Numbered seat versus unspecified codes

Massachusetts District 07 is a voting House district. USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets are 90 and 98. This page’s $25.9 billion is mapped to the 7th district’s performance code. Unmapped Massachusetts performance, if present, would appear on a 90-coded hub, not here.

The Massachusetts 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 07 performance location in FY2024.

Obligations, not disbursements

SpendingVault’s district totals are obligations: legal commitments recorded in USAspending. Outlays are payments. The $25.9 billion figure is the former. Contract vehicles can obligate in one year and invoice across several.

The precise FY2024 statement is that agencies obligated $25.9 billion on 30,061 awards with MA-07 place of performance. It is not a statement that $25.9 billion was paid in cash inside the district that year. FY2024 is the only year in the facts.

Massachusetts pages that sit beside this hub

The Massachusetts District 07 hub is the award table. The Massachusetts state page is the statewide rollup. The all-districts index links to other Massachusetts numbered districts and to unspecified 90/98 codes used in USAspending. A headquarters in the 7th without a MA-07 performance tag does not enter this file.

How to read a 30,061-row Massachusetts file

Thirty thousand sixty-one awards summing to $25.9 billion is a thick numbered-district file. That row volume is almost certainly many small actions. It is not 30,061 unique vendors. The Massachusetts District 07 hub is the only place in this project to inspect the mix; the packet has no agency split.

Cite MA-07 as $25.9 billion in FY2024 USAspending obligations on 30,061 awards with numbered code MA-07. Keep other Massachusetts seats and any District 90 leftover on other rows. None of their totals sits inside $25.9 billion. Obligations are not outlays. Headquarters in the 7th without a MA-07 tag does not enter this file. FY2024 is the only year in the packet. USAspending.gov is the source.

Massachusetts District 07 can be briefed as $25.9 billion in FY2024 obligations on 30,061 awards with numbered code MA-07. The 30,061-award count is thick beside $25.9 billion. Treat that volume as many small actions unless the hub table shows otherwise. It is not 30,061 unique companies. Keep other Massachusetts numbered districts and any District 90 leftover on other rows. None of their totals sits inside $25.9 billion. This packet does not supply those other dollars. What it supplies is MA-07 place-of-performance commitments from USAspending.gov, not outlays, not a headquarters extract, and not a multi-year series. A headquarters in the 7th without a MA-07 tag does not enter this file. Work coded to MA-07 from a vendor based elsewhere does enter $25.9 billion. The Massachusetts state page rolls all Massachusetts codes and will not equal $25.9 billion. FY2024 is the only year in the facts. Federal FY2024 starts October 1. Later USAspending corrections can revise both the dollar sum and the award count. Until a later extract, report $25.9 billion and 30,061 awards for MA-07 place of performance as obligations, not outlays.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Massachusetts District 07 for FY2024?

USAspending.gov records $25.9 billion in FY2024 obligations with a Massachusetts District 07 place of performance, across 30,061 awards. These are obligations, not outlays. District is performance location, not headquarters. The facts cover FY2024 only. Those figures are FY2024 USAspending obligations with MA-07 place of performance, covering 30,061 awards, not outlays and not a headquarters extract.

Why does District 07 have 30,061 awards?

That is the FY2024 award-record count for the MA-07 place-of-performance code. It is not a unique-vendor count. Those records sum to $25.9 billion in obligations. A thick file usually means many smaller actions. The packet does not break the file by agency.

Is Massachusetts District 07 a 90-code unspecified bucket?

No. District 07 is a numbered Massachusetts congressional district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets. The $25.9 billion total is mapped to District 07, not to those residual codes. The MA-07 tag is the geography rule; an office address in Massachusetts is neither required nor enough to enter the 30,061 records.

Do contractors headquartered in the 7th district all appear here?

No. Only awards with MA-07 place of performance enter the $25.9 billion and 30,061-award totals. A headquarters in the district is not sufficient. Work coded to another Massachusetts district or another state will appear elsewhere. Cite the figure with the obligation label, the FY2024 window, and MA-07 place of performance rather than recipient headquarters.
