USAspending in Maryland District 01, FY2024

Twenty-two thousand seven hundred sixty-one award records

USAspending counts 22,761 awards with Maryland District 01 place of performance in FY2024. Those records sum to $18.8 billion in obligations. A file this thick is almost certainly many small actions rather than 22,761 unique companies. The packet has no unique-recipient count, so 22,761 remains a stock of award actions.

Because first year and last year are both 2024, the 22,761 figure is a single-fiscal-year stock. It is not a running inventory of every award ever performed in the 1st district.

Place of performance, not an HQ census

Place of performance assigns the district. Recipient headquarters do not. Federal work coded to Maryland’s 1st district can be performed by vendors based in other Maryland districts or in other states. Those awards still sit in the $18.8 billion if the performance tag is MD-01.

Firms with offices inside District 01 can be missing when the work is coded to Maryland District 06, District 07, Maryland’s unspecified District 90 bucket, or another state. HQ lists of “1st district contractors” will not reproduce this file.

Numbered seat versus unspecified codes

Maryland District 01 is a voting House district. USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets are 90 and 98. This page’s $18.8 billion is mapped to the 1st district’s performance code. Unmapped Maryland performance, if present, would appear on a 90-coded hub, not here.

The Maryland 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 01 performance location in FY2024.

Obligations, not disbursements

SpendingVault’s district totals are obligations: legal commitments recorded in USAspending. Outlays are payments. The $18.8 billion figure is the former. Contract vehicles can obligate in one year and invoice across several.

The precise FY2024 statement is that agencies obligated $18.8 billion on 22,761 awards with MD-01 place of performance. It is not a statement that $18.8 billion was paid in cash inside the district that year. FY2024 is the only year in the facts.

Maryland pages that sit beside this hub

The Maryland District 01 hub is the award table. The Maryland state page is the statewide rollup. The all-districts index links to other Maryland numbered districts and to unspecified 90/98 codes used in USAspending. A headquarters in the 1st without an MD-01 performance tag does not enter this file.

How to read a 22,761-row Maryland file

Twenty-two thousand seven hundred sixty-one awards summing to $18.8 billion is a thick numbered-district file. That row volume is almost certainly many small actions. It is not 22,761 unique vendors. The Maryland District 01 hub is the only place in this project to inspect the mix; the packet has no agency split.

Cite MD-01 as $18.8 billion in FY2024 USAspending obligations on 22,761 awards with numbered code MD-01. Keep other Maryland seats and any District 90 leftover on other rows. None of their totals sits inside $18.8 billion. Obligations are not outlays. Headquarters in the 1st without an MD-01 tag does not enter this file. FY2024 is the only year in the packet. USAspending.gov is the source.

Maryland District 01 can be briefed as $18.8 billion in FY2024 obligations on 22,761 awards with numbered code MD-01. The 22,761-award count is thick beside $18.8 billion. Treat that volume as many small actions unless the hub table shows otherwise. It is not 22,761 unique companies. Keep other Maryland numbered districts and any District 90 leftover on other rows. None of their totals sits inside $18.8 billion. This packet does not supply those other dollars. What it supplies is MD-01 place-of-performance commitments from USAspending.gov, not outlays, not a headquarters extract, and not a multi-year series. A headquarters in the 1st without a MD-01 tag does not enter this file. Work coded to MD-01 from a vendor based elsewhere does enter $18.8 billion. The Maryland state page rolls all Maryland codes and will not equal $18.8 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 $18.8 billion and 22,761 awards for MD-01 place of performance as obligations, not outlays.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Maryland District 01 for FY2024?

USAspending.gov records $18.8 billion in FY2024 obligations with a Maryland District 01 place of performance, across 22,761 awards. These are obligations, not outlays. District is performance location, not headquarters. The facts cover FY2024 only. Those figures are FY2024 USAspending obligations with MD-01 place of performance, covering 22,761 awards, not outlays and not a headquarters extract.

Why does District 01 have 22,761 awards?

That is the FY2024 award-record count for the MD-01 place-of-performance code. It is not a unique-vendor count. Those records sum to $18.8 billion in obligations. A thick file usually means many smaller actions. The packet does not break the file by agency.

Is Maryland District 01 a 90-code unspecified bucket?

No. District 01 is a numbered Maryland congressional district. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending’s unspecified or non-voting buckets. The $18.8 billion total is mapped to District 01, not to those residual codes. The MD-01 tag is the geography rule; an office address in Maryland is neither required nor enough to enter the 22,761 records.

Do contractors headquartered in the 1st district all appear here?

No. Only awards with MD-01 place of performance enter the $18.8 billion and 22,761-award totals. A headquarters in the district is not sufficient. Work coded to another Maryland district or another state will appear elsewhere. Cite the figure with the obligation label, the FY2024 window, and MD-01 place of performance rather than recipient headquarters.
